Hi all, last Friday Microsoft released Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 28020.1812 to the Canary Channel. (KB 5083824)
This build brings small but useful UX improvements, including customizable touchpad right‑click zones, a refined drag tray, and updates to Feedback Hub. It also enhances the Windows Security > Secure Boot experience with clearer status indicators and certificate visibility (consumer devices only; enterprise-managed devices excluded)
What’s new in Canary Build 28020.1812
Changes and Improvements gradually being rolled out with toggle on*
- This update includes a small set of general improvements and fixes that improve the overall experience for Insiders running this build on their PCs.
[Touchpad]
- We’re adding a new setting in Settings > Bluetooth & Devices > Touchpad so you can choose how large the right-click zone size is (this is the portion in the bottom-right of your touchpad where pressing a single finger will result in a right-click), between default, small, medium, and large. Note – this setting only appears for touchpads that have a pressable surface for this. Some manufacturers may provide customization for this in their own apps – if you’ve customized your setting using an app like this, a “Custom” entry will be added to the dropdown, which preserves that value.
Feedback: Share your thoughts in Feedback Hub (WIN + F) under Input and Language > Touchpad.
[Sharing]
- Based on feedback we’re making some refinements to drag tray, using a smaller peek view to reduce accidental invocation and make it easier to dismiss when interacting near the top of the screen.
[Windows Security app]
- We have recently started to roll out enhancements to the Windows Security app > Device security > Secure Boot experience, which shows green, yellow, and red icon badges as well as new text that reflects your device’s Secure Boot state and certificate status. Microsoft is updating Secure Boot certificates on consumer devices and some business PCs, and you can now check your certificate status with this new feature. This experience is disabled by default on enterprise IT managed devices and servers.

[Feedback Hub Improvements]
- Thanks Windows Insiders who have been sharing such great feedback about the new Feedback Hub version. As some of you may have already noticed, we’re currently rolling out version 2.2604.101.0 to Dev and Canary. This includes design refinements based on your feedback, such as:
- Improved the default window size, and now it will remember window size across session.
- You can now use the mouse back button to go back between pages.
- If you were seeing less community feedback than usual, that should be addressed now.
- Upvote buttons for feedback should display correctly for Insiders using the Chinese display language now, … and more.
Please keep the feedback coming! You can share your thoughts under Feedback Hub (WIN + F) under Apps > Feedback Hub.
