Hi all, last Wednesday Microsoft today we are releasing Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 25997 to the Canary Channel.
ISOs for this build are available – they can be downloaded here.
Upgrades felt a bit more work post restart phase, took about 3 minutes per device, they did all complete successfully
Devices with Application Guard active did show an error at 1st logon & after hybernate or reboot

I am excited for the upcoming 26xxx build, which might be ready next week. It seems like a significant achievement that we have accomplished.
Changes and Improvements
[Windows Share]
- If you’re signed in with a Microsoft Entra ID, your Microsoft Teams (work or school) contacts will appear in the Windows share window to quickly share to.
[Settings]
- We are beginning to roll out a new option under Settings > Bluetooth & devices > Phone Link to disable Phone Link all together in Windows 11. This setting will prevent Phone Link from communicating with your mobile devices.
