Microsoft is giving Windows Insider Program members who participate in the Dev and Canary channels a little break this week. No new Windows 11 Insider builds will be released to members of these channels until at least next week.
Unfortunately, there are no new builds for Canary or Dev this week as there are some bugs that need to be fixed.

in Posted by X (formerly Twitter)Microsoft’s Brandon LeBlanc admitted that these builds “have some bugs that need to be fixed,” so Dev and Canary members will have to wait a little longer.
To be fair, Microsoft’s Windows team has had a much busier week than usual. The team began rolling out the next Windows 11 feature update, also known as Moment 5, on Thursday. It has many more improvements. Voice Access language support, share content to more apps, new Cast improvements, and more.
In addition to Moment 5, Microsoft also released new non-security release preview builds for Windows 11 22H2 and 22H3, and Windows 10 22H3. It includes some new features, but is mostly limited to bug fixes.
Members of the Windows Insider Program got some new content this week. Beta channel members received a rare KB5034845 build number 22635.3212 on Monday. A big feature in that build was a new notification badge for widgets. Also, all Insider members can now try out the ability to have their Android smartphone act as her webcam for her Windows PC.
Finally, in the midst of all this, Microsoft has launched a new Bug Bash event for Insiders in the Dev and Canary channels. Complete event quests and register in the Feedback Hub until March 4th to gain access to special virtual badges.
