There"s a brand new Windows 10 build available for both PC and Mobile, build 14905. The news comes less than a week after the first Redstone 2 build for PCs, 14901.
Redstone 2 is to be the next major feature update to Windows 10. Microsoft has confirmed that we won"t see it until 2017, and we"re expecting it in April.
There weren"t any new features listed for the PC build, but there are a number of fixes, improvements, and known issues. Here are the fixes and improvements:
We have fixed an issue causing a large blank space to appear between the address bar and web content after the address bar moves back to the top when opening a new tab in Microsoft Edge.
We have updated Narrator Scan mode for table navigation to now support CTRL + ALT + HOME to go to the beginning of the table CTRL + ALT + END to go to the end of the table.
Microsoft Edge now supports the CTRL + O keyboard shortcut for setting focus to the address bar.
We fixed an issue resulting in Sketchpad and Screen Sketch crashing after trying to change the ink color twice in a row when the ruler was visible.
Here are the known issues:
Support for kernel debugging over 1394 has been removed, but will be available in an upcoming kit release. A work-around will be posted to the Debugging Tools for Windows Blog shortly.
Adobe Acrobat Reader crashes when you try to launch it.
Cortana’s text to speech capabilities is not working in this build. For example, Cortana won’t be able to read text messages out loud for you, tell jokes, sing, or give verbal prompts.
When clicking on the power button on the Start menu, it closes the Start menu without opening the flyout with restart/shutdown options appearing. As a workaround – you can right-click on the Start button (or WIN + X) and choose to shutdown via this menu instead.
Apps such as Yahoo Mail, Trivia Crack, Google and the Skype Translator Preview app will crash in this build due to a compatibility issue from a recent platform change.
The Settings app may crash on certain editions of Windows 10 when navigating to different settings pages due to a missing .dll file. We are working on getting this fixed soon.
Microsoft hasn"t yet announced any major new features that are available in the Redstone 2 builds, so it might be best to skip these early builds. After all, you"re taking on known issues without the new features.
If you do want build 14905, make sure you"re on the Fast ring by heading to Settings -> Update & security -> Windows Insider Program, and make sure that your PC is set to the Fast ring.
