Last week Microsoft announced the Bug Bash, which is an event to entice Windows Insiders to complete Quests (hopefully) for the betterment of Windows 11 development in the long and short term. Initially on March 16th there were around 26 quests available to complete, but that has now grown to a whopping 75. Here's the kicker though: the Bug Bash ends today on March 22nd, and along with it a chance to earn a Bug Bash specific sticker that will appear in your Feedback Hub.
To participate in Windows 11 Bug Bash, you need to have the latest Windows 11 preview build from the Dev channel, which is build 22572.100, so please update before attempting a Quest. Next, fire up the Feedback Hub and navigate to the Quests section. There you will find around 75 different tasks to perform on your computer. Some of those quests include testing drag-and-drop on the taskbar, using Quick Settings, Snap Layouts, the revamped Do Not Disturb mode, connecting Bluetooth devices using the updated flyout, and so forth.
You can share your feedback and findings with Microsoft after completing the quests. The software giant will use your telemetry data to track bugs, instabilities, and other rough surfaces to polish and improve in future updates. Hopefully, this will help Microsoft make Windows 11 less buggy and more enjoyable to use.
As pointed out earlier, those that participate in the Bug Bash will receive a special achievement badge for their profiles in the Feedback Hub, so if you want that, you'll need to do it today.
