Although it is Windows 10 “Redstone 4” δεν έχει ολοκληρωθεί ακόμη, η Microsoft ξεκίνησε ήδη τις πρώτες δοκιμές στο Windows 10 “Redstone 5”.
At 14 in February, Microsoft released two new test builds: Redstone 4 build 17101, and the first build of Redstone 5 (17604).
Fast Ring testers can access Redstone 4, while those in the "Skip Ahead" ring can try Redstone 5, though it's too early to notice any new features.
Microsoft officially announced a new preview program for Windows 10 applications along with the two new builds.
The new program allows Windows Insider testers to choose to preview individual applications instead of having to be part of the "Skip Ahead" ring to access the latest company app updates.
Insiders will be able to choose to have previews for Feedback Hub, Microsoft Photos, Microsoft Sticky Notes, Microsoft Tips, Paint 3D, Windows Alarms & Clock, Windows Calculator, Windows Camera, Windows Mixed Reality Viewer and Windows Voice Recorder.
To choose to preview one applications, you should go to the “Settings” or “About” page of the application and do click on the button “Join preview” or “Leave preview.”
Microsoft currently has a limited number of previews but will open more slots gradually. Internal collaborators already in the Skip Ahead ring do not have to choose to take these previews.
Back to Windows 10 now. In both test versions, Microsoft made changes to Windows permissions, providing users greater control over Universal Windows Platform applications that can now access the entire file system. Microsoft made slight changes to the appearance of the emoji included in both 17101 and 17604.
Microsoft also added two new features to Windows 10 Pro for Workstations with the released demos:
A new energy system called Ultimate Performance, replacing all consumer consumer apps and games with productivity and business applications.
Η today's announcement of the company includes a long list of changes, fixes, and updates for 17101 and 17604.
