Microsoft has released a new build of Windows 11 for Windows Insiders on the dev channel. Build 25295 has few minor changes and a selection of fixes.
Update: Here is my hands on video
The first change is the recent changes to the search box which is now available to all Windows Insiders. You can adjust this in Settings – Personalization – Taskbar – Taskbar Items.
The other change is a copy to clip board button on notification popups from two factor authentication alerts:
Here are the fixes and known issues with the build, lookout for my hands on video soon.
Fixes
[General]
The issue causing repeated bugchecks for some Insiders after upgrading to Build 25284+ should be fixed now.

Fixed an issue where the Update history page under Settings > Windows Update > Update history was blank for some users after installing Build 25290.

[Input]
Fixed an issue which could lead to app windows becoming unresponsive after using multi-finger on screen touch gestures.
Fixed an underlying issue which was causing your mouse to appear like pointer trails was enabled when sharing your screen.
[Settings]

[Windowing]
Fixed an issue which could cause certain apps to move very slowly when you dragged it across the screen.

NOTE: Some fixes noted here in Insider Preview builds from the Dev Channel may make their way into the servicing updates for the released version of Windows 11.
Known issues
[General]
[NEW] Some AAD (Azure Active Directory joined users are now seeing “Getting ready for you” screens when signing into Windows after updating the latest builds. We are investigating the issue.
[NEW] Some users are experiencing issues authenticating to enterprise websites that require windows integrated authentication. This will be addressed in a future update.
Launching Group Policy Editor may show an error about a displayName attribute not being found.
Using Windows Hello to sign in with facial recognition may not work on Arm64 PCs. A workaround for this is to use the Hello PIN path.
We’re working on the fix for an underlying issue related to combase.dll, causing crashes with multiple apps using GetKnownFolder APIs after upgrading to Build 25290, including Notepad and Windows Terminal for IME users.
While using Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE) or in doing a clean install of Build 25290, users may encounter rendering issues which create difficulty in using these processes. If you need to do a clean install to your device, please obtain the latest Dev Channel ISO from https://aka.ms/wipISO.
[Widgets]
The link for “Find more widgets” in the widgets picker currently is broken. This will be fixed and linked to the Store collection here in a future update.
Third-party widgets may occasionally disappear from the widgets board. They can be re-added by clicking refresh or by re-pinning them from the widgets picker.
Third-party widgets may occasionally get unpinned when the Microsoft account is used to sign-in multiple Windows 11 devices.
The undo button on the widget pinned/unpinned toast notification sometimes doesn’t work.
[Taskbar & System Tray]
App icons on the taskbar may appear on the wrong monitor for some Insiders with multiple monitors.
[Search on the Taskbar]
There is an issue where you will be unable to change taskbar search box to show as icon only via taskbar settings in some cases. To work around this issue, first change to a different option and then after, you should be able to choose to show as icon only.
[Windows Spotlight]
The following known issues only apply for Windows Insiders who received one of the different treatments of Windows Spotlight that began rolling out to Insiders with Build 25281:
Clicking on a secondary monitor does not dismiss the full screen experience.
Spotlight wallpaper doesn’t show the correct resolution on multiple / mixed resolution monitors.
