Windows 11 Build 25120 released with new experimental search bar

Windows 11 Build 25120, now available in the Dev Channel, doesn't come with groundbreaking features, but it does support a new experimental "search bar" that appears on the desktop. Build 25120 is apparently part of next year's feature update 23H2, codenamed "Sun Valley 3."

As mentioned before, Windows 11 Build 25120 is not a big release, but it has some quality improvements and bug fixes. For example, there's a new experimental feature that lets you browse Bing Web Search right from your desktop.

Microsoft has previously said that the Development Channel is now eligible to receive new features and experiences that may never be released. That's because Microsoft wants to try
"different concepts and get feedback." In this specific preview build, the search bar in the widget panel is now accessible on the desktop.

You can remove the search box from the desktop by right-clicking on it, then you need to toggle the "Show search" option in the "Show more options" option in the context menu .

Microsoft says: "We'd love to hear your feedback on this interaction model, so if you receive this experiment, please use the Feedback Center to provide feedback."
