E' disponibile il download della Build 16184 di Windows 10 (PC) Insider Preview per i Windows Insiders, pronti a testarla (Microsoft-Blog compreso).
Nelle prime Build di Redstone 3, il quarto grande aggiornamento di Windows 10, ci saranno poche novità in quanto Microsoft si concentra dapprima sul OneCore, il cuore di Windows condiviso su tutti i dispositivi, con diverse modifiche che potrebbero portare conseguenti bug. Il consiglio è di provare queste Preview sempre su Macchine Virtuali o PC non di uso quotidiano o lavorativo.
- My People: è una funzionalità che permette di gestire al meglio i propri contatti preferiti. Quando l'utente vuole inviare una foto, rispondere ad un amico, pianificare una cena, ecc. con My People è possibile avere tutto a portata di mano. Ora è possibile:
- Pinnare i contatti sulla Barra delle Applicazioni (al momento limitato a 3 contatti);
- Mostrare più conversazioni insieme e filtrati per ogni contatto sulla Barra delle Applicazioni;
- Scegliere l'App da utilizzare nelle chat e utilizzarla anche nei successivi utilizzi.
Per utilizzare My People, è necessario aver aggiornato all'ultima versione di Skype, Posta e Contatti e successivamente cliccare sull'icona People sulla Barra delle Applicazioni per avviare la prima installazione.
- Nuova esperienza per gli account Gmail su Posta e Calendario di Windows 10: ora anche gli account di Google possono godere di un'esperienza migliore in Posta e Calendario con le mail evidenziate. Tale funzionalità permette di vedere meglio le mail più importanti ed è stata introdotta per gli account Microsoft e ora anche su Gmail.
Fix e Miglioramenti:
- We fixed an issue where night light could get stuck in a disabled state.
- We’ve updated Start to use the improved XAML scrollbar style announced during Creators Update development.
- We fixed an issue from recent flights where dragging an app from Start’s All apps list into the tile grid would result in Start crashing.
- We fixed an issue for those using Windows in Japanese, where on first login after an upgrade certain apps would unexpectedly appear at the bottom of the Start’s All apps list for an hour or until being launched, instead of the normal sorted position.
- Since the preview picture in Start Settings only previewed background and theming changes, which are already available to be previewed on their corresponding Settings pages, we’ve made the decision to remove it.
- We’ve improved the loading performance of the Notification Settings page.
- Some audio drivers have an “encoding Audio Processing Object” feature; this is commonly known as “Dolby Digital Live” or “DTS Connect”. This takes the output of the Windows audio engine mix, encodes it (as Dolby Digital, DTS, or some other format) and sends it out over a S/PDIF optical link for decoding by an external audio receiver. An issue was introduced which resulted in this feature no longer working, which is now fixed.
- We fixed an issue from recent flights resulting in Photos crashing if you opened a picture from the Collection page and then pressed the back button in the title back.
- We fixed an issue resulting in Counter Strike Global Offensive hanging or freezing during game play on the latest builds (16176+).
- We fixed the issue where pressing F12 to open the Developer Tools in Microsoft Edge while F12 is open and focused may not return focus to the tab F12 is opened against, and vice-versa.
Bug:
- ADDED: PC Reset via Settings > Update & security > Recovery will not work on this build.
- Some Insiders have reported seeing this error “Some updates were cancelled. We’ll keep trying in case new updates become available.” in Windows Update.
- Double-clicking on the Windows Defender icon in the notification area does not open Windows Defender. Right-clicking on the icon and choosing open will open Windows Defender.
- Surface 3 devices fail to update to new builds if a SD memory card is inserted. The updated drivers for the Surface 3 that fix this issue have not yet been published to Windows Update.
- exe will crash and restart if you tap any of the apps listed in the Windows Ink Workspace’s Recent Apps section.
- Insiders who use Simplified Chinese IMEs or the Traditional Chinese Changjie or Quick IME to input text will find that the candidate window doesn’t appear when typing into certain apps. If you press space, the first candidate will be finalized. Using the number keys will not finalize any other candidate. If the candidate you need is not the first one, for now you will have to enter your text into an app where the candidate window appears, such as Notepad, and copy it into the desired text field.
- Navigating to Settings > Update & security > Windows Update may crash Settings app. You can simply re-open the Settings app again and it should work again.
- The “Save” dialog appears to be broken in several desktop (Win32) apps. The team is investigating. This will break things such as Chinese IME, etc.
- Localized apps on localized x64 Windows 10 Insider Preview builds will not work.
- We’ve heard some reports that the Action Center isn’t opening as reliably in recent builds, and are investigating.
