Chrome, Edge & Firefox, all crash and the OS becomes unresponsive, I can't recover it unless I shutdown.
Anyone else seeing this?
Update:
A temporary solution is to use recommended display resolution or change to MS basic display driver.
Known issues
[NEW] We’re investigating reports that some Insiders are experiencing freezes when using the browser and certain other apps after the previous Dev Channel flight.
Update:
I added build 25290 to the tiltle because even though the blog calls it fixed, some users are still experiencing this bug.

Same issue with my SP4
Changing the resolution to anything but "recommended" worked for me.
Still buggy screen issues as Windows gives a weird "overlays" of my Edge browser, which "fade away" when I move the coursor to the edges of the screen.
Changing the Hardware accleration - as mentioned in another Thread did not work for me.
Cristian,
I was not asking the max resolution of the Nvidia adapter/driver, but the one of the actual screen.
If the screen cannot support the recommended resolution it is not going to work.
In your case, as a temporary workaround use the suggestion on page one.
Uninstall the Nvidia driver and use the Microsoft basic display driver supplied by windows.
Then wait for a fix from Microsoft on future Builds. 🤷♂️
Hi,
I just updated NVIDIA Driver to 528.23 for my NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M, and the last Windows Update is Windows 11 Insider Preview 25284.1000 (rs_prerelease)
My max resolution is 3840 x 2160, and It is Recommended. The scale I am using is 225% on the Laptop monitor (Too old to be 4K) for my ASUS GL552VW.
I changed to 3840 x 2160 resolution, and I restarted. I am using Firefox, and until now, It is not making a crash.
I opened Chrome, and It crashed immediately, but now it allows me to close the program without Windows freezing.
I opened Edge, and It crashed immediately and did not allow me to close the program. I forced close by Task Manager and Windows freeze. I had to restart.
After restarting without changing the resolution, I opened Firefox to write this summary, and It was not crashing.
I opened Chrome and crashed. I closed the program and returned to Firefox, and almost when I was going to hit the submitting button, the Windows froze, and I had to restart again.
I changed the resolution to 1366 x 768 and wrote the summary on this page again with Firefox.
I opened Chrome and Edge without issue and returned to Firefox, which is still working.
Then with the recommended resolution, it is not working.
With the 1366 x 768, It works with Firefox.
In previous tests with the exact resolution, Chrome crashed after a while or with some types of content.
The last Windows Update is still not helping.
Nvidia Driver update didn't affect the behavior.
