In the Performance section we now label listed disks with their type.

[Windowing]
Fixed an underlying issue which could cause the screen to go black for a few seconds for some people when using ALT + Tab.
Fixes for everyone in the Dev Channel
[General]
Fixed an issue causing some Insiders to see error 0x800f0825 when trying to install the latest Dev Channel builds.
[Other]
This update includes fixes for the following issues:
