One of the latest versions of Windows 10X, different from the original one aimed at dual-screen devices was officially released by Microsoft, and leaked online.
This version was uploaded by Albacore (@thebookisclosed) and has build no in 20279. It is not a candidate for RTM, but it could be considered an almost final appearance of the upcoming operating system.
It is important to note that this version of Windows 10X that was released is not technically the final version of Microsoft. And as far as we know, Windows 10X still only works for new lightweight devices, which means you still can't download an ISO. The leak is VHD or a virtual hard disk containing the operating system.
Would you like to play around with a newer build of Windows 10X yourself? I built an emulator-esque image (read: use in Hyper-V only)
Simply create a Generation 2 VM and use this as its disk:https://t.co/7mQOA8ldUM
Enjoy 😄 https://t.co/w28SiVdkmu

However, Microsoft officially hosts the files on its platform, and the community used this as an opportunity to put together a combination of files that make it possible to test the upcoming OS in a virtual machine on any device with Windows 10 Pro. That means the features we see in this leak could change.
If you want to try the upcoming operating system, you can download the emulator from Mega. Unzip it with 7Zip. You can install it on a virtual machine from Hyper-V Manager in Windows 10 (You will need Windows 10 Pro).
The leak is configured as a virtual disk (not as an ISO) and only works with Hyper-V.
