Microsoft Win11 Dev is testing a smoother pop-up animation on the taskbar during login

CTOnews.com August 14 news, Microsoft recently released Windows 11 Dev preview version 25179 update. After installing the update, some Windows Insider quickly noticed something unusual happening on the taskbar.

You found that Microsoft is testing the new icon pop-up animation, and it seems to be an A / B test, because it is only displayed for some users. However, other users can also force it to enable the hidden Windows 11 preview feature by using the third-party tool ViVeTool.

This update brings a new taskbar animation in Windows 11, which discards the old pop-up window animation and replaces it with a new enlarged variant.

ViVeTool users can also use this ID to enable a new taskbar animation in Windows 11 Build 25179: ViveTool / enable / id:39072097.
