Microsoft has updated the Windows 11 ISO to build 22454, allowing power users to perform a clean install of the OS.
Build 22454 was released yesterday and has the following changelog:
CHANGES AND IMPROVEMENTS ■ Right-clicking on Recycle Bin on the desktop now uses the new modern context menu.
New modern context menu when you right-click on Recycle Bin on your desktop. ■ Added an option when right-clicking a network share in File Explorer to pin it to Quick Access without having
to click Show more options.
■ We have begun releasing an updated version of the Korean IME with adjustments made based on Windows
Insider feedback. We believe this will provide a more reliable input experience for Korean on Windows 11.
The updated version of the Korean IME follows the new visual design of Windows 11 with acrylic in the
candidate window, a new selection visual, and dark mode support. It also improves improved performance
and compatibility. The updated Korean IME is rolling out to a subset of Insiders in the Dev Channel first, to
help us quickly identify issues that may impact performance and reliability. Over time, it will roll out to
everyone in the Dev Channel. Please file feedback via Feedback Hub under Input and Language > Text
Input.

KNOWN ISSUES[General] ■ We’re working on a fix for an issue that is causing some Surface Pro X’s to bugcheck with a
WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR.
