Microsoft releases Windows 10 build 19042.906, 19043.906 to Insiders

Today, Microsoft is releasing a few cumulative update previews for Windows Insiders on the Beta and Release Preview channels. Or more specifically, it's just one cumulative update that applies to two versions of Windows 10.

The cumulative update that's rolling out is KB5000842, which brings the build number to 19042.906 and 19043.906 on the Release Preview and Beta channels, respectively. Since it's a preview of this month's C/D week updates, it includes a ton of fixes.

Here's the list of changes:

If you're on the Beta channel, you actually got most of these fixes in an earlier update, so the only change listed for you is the last one on the list.

As usual, the update will arrive via Windows Update, and you can enroll in the Windows Insider Program through its tab in Settings.
