What’s New with Windows 10 Latest Build 9926

Its already been a couple of days that Microsoft announced their new improved consumer Windows 10 preview build to everyone through live-stream. I received my build update yesterday morning, and so far I'm super excited about it. Microsoft has given a lot of thought with this new Operating System; they are really listening to the public feedback. If you updated your Windows 10 build to build 9926 - what have you noticed? What are your thoughts? Leave your comments below.

[one of my subscribes told me this :)] Right-clicking on the taskbar and going to the search option will give you options to disable, icon, full bar:

Cortana is very limited in the settings department. Hoping more features appear in future builds:

Microsoft removed the option to force Windows updates to the machine. I guess they want to control the updates on the preview builds.

Login screen gives you tips and the background changes every time you restart the machine:

Icons are changed and redesigned [looks a bit cartoony]. Also, when you pin stuff to your quick access bar their is a thumbtack image next to it:

Using the old Windows 10 builds I kind of got use to the start menu and with the new Windows 10 Build 9926, the new start menu look pretty sharp. The power options are close by and they inter grated the charm bar with the start menu by giving you a full screen mode.

Now, if you saw my video review it seems that Microsoft redesigned the Store app. It doesn’t say Store(beta) and it doesn’t look like the Apple’s app store 🙂

I hope this changes with future builds, but their isn’t a way to customize the action bar with new quick access features:

Microsoft added a full screen option at the upper top right corner of apps:
