Windows 11 Insider Experimental (26H1) Preview Build 28020.2134 released

Published by

Windows 11 Experimental Build 28020 introduces enhancements for update control, including the ability to pause updates indefinitely and skip installations during initial setup. It also addresses a network discovery bug that often caused the Simple Service Discovery Protocol to freeze on busy home networks. However, users should be aware that the local system reset function has a known issue, requiring them to use the cloud download method instead. As this is an experimental preview, it is advisable to test it on secondary hardware before relying on it for daily tasks

Windows 11 Experimental Build 28020 gives users tighter control over updates by allowing pause extensions, better installation details, and skip options during setup. The release also patches a lingering network discovery bug that frequently freezes the Simple Service Discovery Protocol on busy home routers. However, the local system reset feature currently breaks under certain conditions, forcing anyone who needs to wipe their machine to use the cloud download workaround instead. Since this remains an experimental preview, testing it on secondary hardware is still the safest approach before relying on it for daily tasks.
