As you can see, we found no news regarding what Microsoft announced about seven days ago in the most advanced rings within the Insider Program. Remember that this Build is designed for those users who want to test the new features that will arrive with Redstone 4 and that its stability is not guaranteed, so if If you install it on a computer, it is recommended that it is not the main one you use on a day-to-day basis.
