Windows 11 promo

Microsoft today released the first version of Windows 11 Insider 2023 in both Dev channels (build 25272) and Beta channels (build 2262x.1095). Besides the many bug fixes it brings, the first one also has a hidden feature, a new option in the File Explorer navigation panel called “Gallery” and it also has a new icon. The change was spotted by Windows enthusiast and detective PhantomOcean3.

It is currently unclear why Microsoft added the new icon and option as it basically does the same thing that “Photos” does. However, further changes may be expected in the future.
