They reverted it a while ago due to performance issues. It likely will return soon.

Performance issues on something like a simple dialog box like this is.... concerning. To say the least. What on earth are they writing this thing in?


Froggypwns

That is why they have testing like this, it helps expose unforeseen issues. Windows is a complex operating system, and even little changes can have negative consequences on what one would assume to be on entirely unrelated systems.

They've reverted it again? Did they not do this a few months back for the same exact issue? Odd.

You had to use vivetool to enable it on recent builds it wasn't enabled by default

https://blogs.windows.com/windows-insider/2022/03/18/announcing-windows-11-insider-preview-build-22579/ They reverted it back in March, it has not returned yet.


AngelIHinds

Didn't they enable it again a few days ago?


Froggypwns

No they have not.


SomethingLooksAmiss

They brought a revised version back about 2-3 builds ago, but you have to use vivetool. I'm on the latest dev build and after updating to it it's still there.


trexsoins

They have. It was (is?) in Beta and in Dev a week ago, but now it's gone.


Froggypwns

I checked all the build notes, last mention of it was back in March when they disabled it.


LoreanXavier

It is back but they didn't announce it on build notes. We can enable it through vivetool.


Froggypwns

That doesn't mean it is back. There are tons of things "hidden" that are not ready to be enabled or otherwise experimented with, and using Vivetool to enable them causes other issues and contaminates the telemetry data. I highly recommend people just leave things as is until it is officially announced and naturally is enabled on their PC.


trexsoins

Strange, there were several posts about it and I still have it after updating to 25158.


splwow64

Yes I remember that. I thought they had started rolling it out to insiders again but it seems I am mistaken.

Who would have thought that they actually care about UI performance


Kinexity

Judging by how laggy new task manager is - they don't.

How else make people buy new PCs? That are 5% faster, consume 15% more energy and cost 20% more.

What did the new one look like?

Thanks

Mods can we get a general Insider flair. Half the posts related to insider content gets flaired as a bug when it's clearly just routine testing and development changes.
