Known Bugs

BattlEye and Microsoft have encountered incompatibility issues due to operating system changes between some Insider Preview builds and certain versions of the BattlEye anti-cheat software. To avoid issues, we've placed a compatibility hold on these devices so they won't receive affected builds of Windows Insider Preview. Here are more details.
They are investigating that Settings is not yet available outside of release via URI (ms-settings:)
When using a remote desktop connection and the target PC is on this build, within about an hour (if not sooner), DWM may start to crash, and the session window will become completely black, you'll experience black flashes, or you'll be logged out of the remote desktop session entirely.

If you belong to the Slow Ring within the Insider Program, you can download the update by going to the usual path, that is, Settings > Update and Security > Windows Update An update that is focused above all on improving the performance of the operating system."
