Windows 11 KB5011563 released, adds desktop watermark function

Windows 11 KB5011563 is finally starting to roll out to users outside of the company’s beta channels. This version comes with some new features and some minor improvements. You can try the new optional patch through Windows Update or download the offline installer for KB5011563.

Windows 11 KB5011563 is an optional update and will not install automatically unless you explicitly click the Get Update button. As we know, optional updates can be skipped and we don't have to install it unless we really need those small improvements and bug fixes. The April 2022 Patch Tuesday will roll out the same set of changes.

Unlike last month’s update, the March 2022 optional update doesn’t bring a ton of new features but few quality improvements. For example, Windows 11 Notification Center can now display up to three high-priority toast notifications simultaneously.

Windows 11 KB5011563 (Build 22000.593) Improvements

1. Display up to three high-priority toast notifications simultaneously.
2. Fixed an issue where renaming a OneDrive file and pressing Enter could cause it to lose focus.
3. Microsoft has fixed issues with SystemSettings.exe and Searchindexer.exe.

As mentioned at the beginning, Microsoft is making changes to the default behavior of the Notification Center. After the update, Windows 11 will display three high-priority toast notifications simultaneously. This applies to notifications such as calls, reminders or alarms of the same nature (priority).

So, you may notice up to four toast notifications, and you will find three high priority notifications and one normal priority notification.

In addition to this new feature, Microsoft has also fixed several bugs in the operating system. For example, we fixed a bug where Windows would incorrectly disable launch app support for apps built using the Universal Windows Platform (UWP).

Another critical bug has been fixed where SystemSettings.exe may stop working and searchindexer.exe prevents Outlook's offline searches from returning recent emails.

Microsoft said it also fixed a potential performance issue where startup time would increase due to the UI thread in the network API and the network would stop responding when a 5G WWAN device wakes up slowly.

Build 22000.593 Improvements and Fixes:

• Fixed memory leak in wmipicmp.dll.
• Resolved execution policy setting issue.
• Resolved an issue where web browsers such as Edge could not correctly render HTML generated by gpresult/h.
• Resolved an issue where AppLocker's PowerShell tests were not working with "Access Denied" errors.
• Resolved an issue where Kerberos.dll may stop working in the Local Security Authority Subsystem Service (LSASS).
• Added support for Microsoft Accounts (MSA) passthrough in Azure Active Directory(AAD) Web Account Manager (WAM).
• Microsoft has fixed an issue where the User Account Control (UAC) dialog box would not display correctly for applications requesting elevated privileges.
• Microsoft has fixed an issue where Microsoft OneDrive files could lose focus when renamed and pressing the Enter key.

Desktop Watermark

In Windows 11 Build 22000.593, Microsoft officially enables desktop watermarks on desktops that fail to meet the official system requirements of the operating system.

You may remember that Windows 11 officially only supports newer processors through TPM 2.0 and SecureBoot. To alert users that their hardware is not supported, Microsoft now places a watermark above the system tray (lower right corner of the desktop, below the activation error).

This watermark was previously spotted in preview builds and has now entered the production channel with today’s optional update.

Anyone who installs the Windows 11 operating system on a machine that is not officially supported will see a watermark on the desktop that says "System requirements not met" followed by a link to learn more .
