Microsoft has already released updates for the release preview and dev channels this week. A new preview update is now being distributed to the Beta and Canary channels. The new update is available in the Beta channel as Windows 11 build 22624.1470.
As is customary, the update to the beta channel is available in two builds: Windows 11 build 22624.1470, which contains all changes, and Windows 11 build 2222621.1470, which contains limited features. Both updates are labeled with the KB build KB5023780.
Let’s see what’s new in the most recent update.
- View the tree of USB4 hubs and devices that are connected.

When the device is connected to a VPN profile, the update now displays a visible VPN status (a small shield on top of the WiFi icon) in the System Tray.
The new update includes the ability to display seconds in the clock on the System Tray.
These are the only changes in build 22624.1470. Let’s take a look at the differences between the two builds.
