Settings

 * A new "Default graphics settings" option has been added under System > Display > Graphics to allow users to select a discrete graphics adapter as the default high performance GPU. This option is only available on devices with two or more discrete graphics adapters and without integrated graphics.
 * The performance of search within the Settings app has been improved.

General

 * The system may take longer than expected to upgrade to this build in certain cases.
 * The screen may appear black for several minutes when upgrading to this build.

File Explorer

 * The access keys in the XAML context menu may appear inconsistently if no button is pressed. Pressing a button will cause them to reappear.
 * Clicking on the Share command may bring up the Windows share sheet (non-OneDrive) when the file recommendations feature is enabled.

Shell

 * Right-clicking a file or folder while pressing ⇧ Shift may not open the legacy context menu in certain cases.
 * Users may see the daily rotating search highlight for some time before getting the new Bing button back to the search box on the taskbar.

Settings

 * When adding a language via the Language & Region page, the installation progress may become hidden, and users may not see install completion for enhanced speech recognition.
 * The Language & Region page may not offer the necessary speech recognition language support for live captions for up to an hour after first login.

Live captions

 * The enhanced speech recognition support may not be installed correctly through the Language & Region page in the Settings app on ARM64 devices.
 * Captioning performance may be degraded in non-English languages and missing out-of-language filtering in non-English (United States) languages.

Safe mode

 * Quick Settings and date/time clock on the taskbar may be missing due to the  service not running.
 * Clicking Bluetooth & devices and Personalization pages may crash the Settings app due to an overrun of a stack-based buffer.
