Build 16184 was the 4th Insider
Preview build of Windows 10 Fall Creator Update. It was released on APR 28,
2017. This arrived via new "RS3" (RedStone3) development
branch.
My People: Technology is all about making it easier for you to connect with
your most important people. Whether you want to share a photo, make plans for
dinner, or get an answer from a friend or coworker – My People is here to take
it to the next level and bring the people you care about most to the center of
your experience.
You can now:
- Pin your people to the taskbar – we’ll suggest some to start with,
or you can pick your own! (Note: you are currently limited to having 3
people pinned to your taskbar currently.)
- View multiple communication apps together and filtered to each person on your
taskbar.
- Choose the app you want to use to chat and we’ll remember for next time.
By now, you are wondering ‘but how do I host this party in my
taskbar?’. To start with, go to the Store app and make sure you have all the
latest updates for the Skype, Mail, and People apps. Then click on the People
icon in the taskbar to activate the first run experience and get setup.
New experience for Gmail accounts in Windows 10 Mail &
Calendar apps: Last
week, we announced we’re introducing a new experience for Gmail accounts
in the Windows 10 Mail and Calendar apps that brings our latest features
such as Focused Inbox and richer experiences for travel reservations
and package deliveries that were previously only available to those with
an Outlook.com or Office 365 email address. Windows Insiders will be the first
to try out the new experience as the roll-out gradually happens over the next
few weeks. You’ll know the new experience is available for your account when
you are prompted to update your Gmail account settings.
Changes, improvements, and fixes
- 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
- 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.
Known issues
- PC Reset via Settings > Update &
security > Recovery will not work on this build.
- Some
Insiders have reported seeing this error “Some updates were cancelled.
- 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.
- 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.
