Microsoft: Aggiornamento Windows 10 (PC / Mobile) Insider Preview (Build 14926)


E' disponibile il download della Build 14926 di Windows 10 (PC / Mobile) Insider Preview per i Windows Insiders, pronti a testarla (Microsoft-Blog compreso).

Novità:
  • (NOTA) Data scadenza della Build: a partire dal 15 Settembre, sui PC con una Build Insider Preview molto datata, comparirà una notifica della scadenza una volta al giorno. Successivamente dal 1 Ottobre questi PC verranno riavviati ogni 3 ore e infine il 15 Ottobre smetteranno di funzionare. E' consigliato quindi aggiornare a questa Build che è valida fino al 2 Maggio 2017;
  • Snooze in Microsoft Edge: questa è un opzione sperimentale che permette di impostare un promemoria per Cortana nel sito web visitato. Ciò dovrebbe migliorare l'esperienza d'uso in quanto impostando il promemoria sarà visualizzato nel centro notifiche e permettere con un click l'apertura della pagina in maniera immediata;
  • Aggiornamento pagina impostazioni Wi-Fi (Mobile): per migliorare l'esperienza d'uso è stata unificata la pagina delle impostazioni Wi-Fi per Windows 10 Mobile, come su PC. La pagina non è ancora completa e nel caso in cui non siano presenti delle funzionalità è possibile trovarle nella seconda pagina "Wi-Fi (legacy). Inoltre è stata introdotta la possibilità di connettersi a reti WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) sul telefono;
  • Possibilità di esportare e importare i preferiti in HTML in Microsoft Edge: è stata introdotta tale funzionalità per semplificare il salvataggio dei preferiti esportandoli ed importandoli in file.html;
  • Nuove Icone di Archiviazione: nelle impostazioni di Archiviazione è possibile vedere le nuove icone inserite ad ogni sezione;
    • Windows Anywhere: sincronizza le impostazioni di Windows con gli altri dispositivi in cui viene utilizzato il medesimo Microsoft Account associato;
    • Miglioramento dell'esperienza di aggiornamento: a seguito di molti feedback ricevuti dopo l'aggiornamento di una Build le App pre-installate, che sono state precedentemente rimosse, non comprariranno nuovamente;
    • Nuove estensioni in Microsoft Edge: in preview è possibile testare le due nuove estensioni per il browser, TamperMonkey e Microsoft Personal Shopping Assistance. La prima è un gestore userscript che consente agli utenti di personalizzare il contenuto delle pagine web e la seconda è un carrello personale che raccoglie i vari prodotti sfogliati, permette di ricevere degli avvisi sui prezzi e permette di confrontarli con più rivenditori.
    Fix Miglioramenti (PC):
    • We fixed the issue causing Adobe Acrobat Reader to crash when you try to launch it.
    • We fixed the issue causing the Settings app to crash when navigating to Settings > Personalization.
    • We fixed an issue where Windows icons and text are not rendered correctly on some devices with Intel Atom (Clovertrail) processors.
    • We’ve improved scaling for full screen games where the aspect ratio doesn’t match the native display resolution, for example, when playing Counter Strike: Global Offensive using a 4:3 stretched resolution.
    • We fixed the issue where some people would experience a bugcheck (bluescreen) after plugging/unplugging certain types of Kindles such as the Paperwhite and Voyage.
    • This build improves the performance on websites with changes to large numbers of HTML Elements containing text by improving spellchecker efficiency. This results in substantially improved performance on websites like TweetDeck.
    • We have addressed the largest cause of reliability issues in Microsoft Edge running on Insider Preview builds. This should improve reliability on major websites such as Facebook and Outlook.com.
    • We fixed an issue resulting in certain links (for example, Facebook) displaying a default favicon in the Microsoft Edge Tab, rather than the logo intended by the website.
    • We fixed an issue where the Wi-Fi icon in the taskbar might show full bars when connected to a Wi-Fi network with low signal.
    • We have fixed the issue which prevented the wireless network adapter in Surface Pro 1 and Surface Pro 2 devices from working. This also fixes the issue with the Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows not working. and other wireless network adapters from third-parties such as D-Link.
    • We fixed an issue where File Explorer’s “Open Command window here” context menu option was opening set to the C:\Windows\System32 path, rather than the desired directory.
    • We fixed an issue potentially resulting in the taskbar no longer auto-hiding when a full screen window has focus (for example, when watching videos, gaming, or when using Remote Desktop). Note: If there’s an app that is asking for attention, it’s by design that the taskbar won’t hide (so you can see that there’s something trying to notify you).
    Fix Miglioramenti (Mobile):
    • We fixed a scaling issue on devices such as the Lumia 635, 636, or 638 where the bottom of certain apps, like Messaging and Maps, would get cut off and rendered off screen.
    • We heard you and we have addressed the largest cause of reliability issues in Microsoft Edge running on Insider Preview builds. This should improve reliability on major websites such as Facebook and Outlook.com.
    • We fixed an issue resulting in the sound of key presses and lock/unlock being barely audible when the phone was using a moderate volume.
    • We fixed an issue where, if Quiet Hours had been turned on, banner notifications might not start appearing again until Action Center was opened or an interactive notification popped up and was dismissed.
    • We fixed an issue where Cortana would crash when trying to open Reminders page.
    • We have improved the reliability of VPN Settings page via Settings > Network & wireless > VPN.
    • We fixed an issue resulting in the thumbnail for portrait videos displaying with an incorrect aspect ratio in the Photos app when panning through the Camera Roll.
    Bug (PC):
    • While using Narrator and Groove Music, if you navigate to the progress bar while a song is playing then Narrator will continually speak the progress of the song e.g. update with the current time of the progress bar every second. The result is you will be unable to listen to the song or hear any other control you navigate to.
    • You may experience a black screen when signing out and switching to another user account and will be unable to log in to that account. A reboot of your PC should allow you to log in to that account.
    • Oracle VM VirtualBox will crash on launch after upgrading to this build.
    • Optional components may not work after upgrading to this build. To get it working again, go to “Turn Windows features on or off”, scroll down and check the right optional component and click ok. After a reboot, the optional component will be enabled again.
    • After updating to this build, built-in Windows 10 apps such as Calculator, Alarms & Clock, and Voice Recorder may not work. To get these apps working again, go to the Store and re-download/install them.
    • For keyboard users, using tab to navigate the Settings app will not work in this build. The arrow keys should work as a temporary workaround.
    Bug (Mobile):
    • Some devices such as the Lumia 650 will fail to install this build with Error 0x80188308. We are currently investigating this issue.
    • Action Center no longer closes if you swipe up on the empty space (area of Action Center that doesn’t show any notifications).
    • Using your phone as a mobile hotspot will work the first time but subsequent attempts to use the feature will result in the inability to enable the hotspot until the phone is rebooted.
    • We are investigating small set of isolated reports that after upgrading to Build 14926, the pin pad is no longer visible to unlock the phone even after rebooting the phone.
    • We are also investigating reports that after upgrading to Build 14926, some phones lose the ability to use their SIM card. A hard reset also fixes this issue as well.
