Microsoft released Windows 10 Build 10565 to Windows Insiders in the Fast ring and eventually to the slow ring. This build has quite a few new features and improvements so I was able to find some and share them with you guys. Check out the video below:
Here’s what’s new in this build:
-
Skype messaging, calling and video experience
-
Tab Preview in Microsoft Edge
-
Syncing Favorites and Reading list items in Microsoft Edge
-
More vibrant title bars
-
Improved context menus on Start
Here are some things we have fixed:
-
You should no longer see a warning message in the Settings app > Update & Security > Windows Update regarding changed ring settings for preview builds unless you actually change your ring settings.
-
Background audio playback works again when apps like Groove are minimized.
-
We fixed the issue where clicking on the system icons in the notification area quickly results in Windows Shell blocking the launch of fly-outs like Audio, Networking, etc.
-
After Build 10525, we heard a lot of feedback that some context menus were too big for mouse. We’ve made adjustments to many of the context menus to make them smaller for using them with a mouse.
-
You can now pin contacts to the Start menu from the People app.
-
Certain apps won’t appear twice anymore when pinned to the taskbar.
-
Hiding desktop icons via context menu on the desktop now works.
-
Windows Store apps should now be updating automatically.
Known issues:
-
The search box does not work if you are in a locale where Cortana is not available. We are currently investigating workarounds.
-
The Xbox app for Windows 10 will consume gigabytes of memory on your PC if you have any Win32 games (non -Windows Store games) installed on your PC that have been identified as games or added by you in the Xbox app. Closing the Xbox app will release your PC’s memory.
-
WebM and VP9 have been temporarily removed from the flight builds. We continue to develop a VP9 implementation that we intend to ship in Windows. Expect VP9 to return soon in a future release.
-
Small form-factor devices, like the Dell Venue 8 Pro, that boot with rotation or virtual mode screen size set larger than the physical screen size will experience a bluescreen on upgrade and will roll back to the previous build.
