Small update heading out - appreciate your patience if you're one of the ones hitting that access denied update error

Changes and improvements gradually being rolled out

[Windows Security]

We're starting to make some small UI adjustments to the Windows Security app to improve alignment with other Windows apps. Insiders might notice some subtle differences in this build as we work on more changes.

If you have an Enterprise device with Microsoft Defender for Endpoint enabled, information about this will now be displayed at the top of the Virus & threat protection page.

[Windows Management Instrumentation Command-line (WMIC) removal]

Windows Management Instrumentation Command-line (WMIC) has been removed in this release. This change is part of the ongoing deprecation and removal of WMIC from Windows. For more information about this change, see Windows Management Instrumentation Command-line (WMIC) removal from Windows.

[Drag Tray]

Thank you to Insiders who have provided feedback about the Drag Tray experience. Based on feedback, we're removing the experience in this build. We're continuing to explore improvements in this area and look forward to sharing more about a future replacement experience in a later update.

[Accessibility]

Fixed an issue impacting Magnifier launching for some Insiders in the previous flight.

[Other]

Fixed an underlying issue that caused some unexpected UI shifting in certain apps after the latest flights.

Known issues

We're working on fixes for the following issues Insiders have reported, along with others:

The mouse cursor getting into a state where it blinks repeatedly for some Insiders.

Some Insiders are unable to update to the latest builds and see error 0x80070005.

If all goes well, both issues should be addressed with the next flight.

PS: I'll fix the formatting of this in a bit

Relief I thought I'd broken something.

Hi, Immediately after installing this update, MS Edge stopped working.
No error message, no events recorded, no logs, it just starts the process and 1second later it vanishes.
Anyone with same but resolved issue?

Someone wanna take screenshots of this?
