<p>With the redesign, Windows Hello now adopts the Windows 11 Fluent Design System, enhancing its visual appeal. These updates are visible across the sign-in screen and authentication processes, including passkeys and interactions with the Microsoft Store.</p>
<p>Additionally, this build introduces a new admin protection feature, available in preview for users running Windows 11 24H2 and later. Microsoft&#8217;s goal is to make authentication “intuitive and seamless.”</p>
<p>This follows last year’s introduction of native passkey support for password-free login. With Windows Hello, users can create and manage passkeys using biometric options such as facial recognition, fingerprints, or a device PIN. These passkeys are compatible across devices and can work on Windows PCs and mobile phones.</p>

<p>The update also brings several quality-of-life improvements. Users can now launch apps as administrators directly from the Start menu or taskbar by holding Shift + CTRL. Taskbar previews are updated, and the system tray is streamlined for improved notification handling.</p>
<p>Microsoft has addressed various issues, including bugs in File Explorer, system tray overlaps, and multi-monitor setups. However, some problems persist, such as glitches with accent-colored window borders, certain animations, and PIN setup issues for Windows Hello on Copilot+ PCs.</p>
<p>This build continues to refine the Windows 11 experience, blending aesthetic enhancements with functional improvements.</p>
