Microsoft releases Windows 10 for PCs build 14393.82 to everyone

Microsoft today released KB3176936 and KB3176934 to Windows 10 PCs running the Anniversary Update, bringing the build number to 14393.82. The cumulative update was available in the Release Preview ring a week ago as KB3176932, but was replaced a few days later by KB3176934.

As one would expect from a cumulative update, there are no new features; instead, it focuses on fixes and improvements. Here"s the official changelog:

  • Improved reliability of Network Controller, DNS server, gateways, Storage Spaces Direct, Group Managed Service Accounts, remote procedure calls (RPC), PowerShell, Internet Explorer 11, printer pairing and interoperability, the Windows kernel, Media Core, Windows Store, Connected Standby, Cluster Health service, the Hypervisor debugger and platform, and Active Directory.

  • Improved performance of Storage Spaces Direct with many nodes or disks, scrolling lists on Xbox One, DHCP address acquisition, Active Directory queries, and Cluster Health service.

  • Addressed issue that prevents external media from playing on Xbox One using Cast to Device.

  • Addressed issue with Mouse events not working correctly in Internet Explorer 11.

  • Addressed issue with the rendering and resizing of nested tables in Internet Explorer 11.

  • Addressed issue with the UI layout not updating correctly in Internet Explorer 11 quirks mode.

  • Addressed issue that was causing nodes to be disconnected from a Cluster service intermittently.

  • Addressed issue with the 3G and 4G options not appearing correctly in Windows 10 Mobile settings.

  • Addressed additional issues with mobile device management (MDM) enrollment for an Azure Active Directory tenant, software compatibility, rendering of Yu Gothic fonts, Cortana, slow connections to cluster shares, Xbox One unable to launch the Netflix app using the DIAL protocol, Xbox One volume and music playback, all video stops while audio plays in a TV app, incorrect scaling of Internet Explorer 11 first-run dialog, driver setup, Windows Update for Business, apps failing to install after resetting device, boot failure with Hyper-V and BitLocker enabled, Cache Manager, Cluster Health service, inability to change roles and features on a locked device, disk-to-enclosure mappings not working, PowerShell, missing lock screen image, fitness tracker not recognized as a mass storage device, synchronization not working between Intune and Azure Active Directory (AAD), Skype calls over Wi-Fi, streaming playback using progressive download, unable to cancel download from Windows, extensions for Microsoft Edge, incorrect lock screen UI after resuming from hibernate and sleep, and blocked installation of game bundles from the Windows Store.

As you can see, some of the changes listed specifically refer to Windows 10 Mobile. Note that this update was not released to Windows phones, unless you"re in the Release Preview or Slow ring, in which case it"s been available.

It"s also worth noting that Microsoft has a confusing way of keeping track of Windows 10 Mobile updates. The firm tends to bundle the notes in with Windows 10 for PCs (which is fine, considering that Windows 10 is supposed to be one OS), but when Windows 10 Mobile gets its own update - such as 14393.67, which was never released to non-Insiders for PCs - it doesn"t show up in the Windows 10 Update History at all.

You can grab today"s update by heading over to Settings -> Update & security -> Windows Update -> Check for updates.
