Today’s test build also includes an update to the Family Safety Widget which provides a new location-sharing view to show where those using the Family Safety app are located. There’s also an update that includes “an improved view” of screen time usage across apps and devices. For those with PCs that support it, the estimated battery life timing will show up in the battery icon in the system tray. Today’s test build does not include the usual build watermark, which typically indicates that Microsoft is closing in on completing a new Windows feature update. However, officials reminded testers “this doesn’t mean we’re done” and said the watermark will be back in a future build. And even once Windows 11 22H2, expected this fall, does “RTM” relatively soon, testers will get updates and fixes for months before 22H2 rolls out to the mainstream. Today’s build also disables the tablet-optimized taskbar feature that Microsoft began rolling out in Build 22563. Officials said they are hoping to bring this feature back “after further refinement of the experience.” Build 22610 also updates the rename, properties, and optimize icons used in the context menu and command bar to improve discoverability and consistency. For a full list of the fixes, updates and known issues in Build 22610, see Microsoft’s blog post.
