What's new?

Revert Virtual Machine

This is something that might interest developers and other Hyper-V users. Starting with this build, checkpoints are generated automatically. Therefore, you are always able to undo a mistake.

Power Throttling

Battery is a big issue with our current devices and Windows is bringing some improvements. This is not really new, as it was first introduced on build 15002, but was restricted to a small set of devices. Today, these power improvements are available for everyone.

Known Issues

  • Some Insiders have reported seeing this error “Some updates were cancelled. We’ll keep trying in case new updates become available” in Windows Update. See this forum post for more details.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.

Download ISOs

You can download ISO's from the table below. I am planning to upload Professional, Home and Enterprise ISO's, all of them on English with compressed install.esd.
Enjoy :)

Update (time goes here)
I did a stupid mistake... I thought I compiled the Professional edition, but instead I compiled the Home edition. While that it's obvious by looking at the file name (CLIENTCORE), I convinced my self that it was the Pro version, and so I described the ISO as such. Sorry if I mislead someone... I am going to compile and upload the Professional as soon as possible.

Update 2 (time goes here)
Professional ISO is live, enjoy it. And once more, sorry about my mistake.
