Microsoft Releases Build 16170

It seems that there is still a long way to go before the arrival of Redstone 3, but we have already seen how Microsoft is already putting their batteries to polish everything that has to come. And the best way to do it is to start as soon as possible with the distribution of Builds based on Redstone 3 that make users reach some of the news that is to come and so that they generate _feedback_.

And said and done, since just a few hours after seeing how the Creators Update lands for everyone from Redmond, they are already starting to release complications based on Redstone 3.In this case it is the Build 16170 that has been released for the members of the Insider Program in the Fast Ring. A Build in which you can already appreciate some of the novelties that we will see but above all focuses on integrating optimizations for OneCore

With Build 16170 we will have access to the first build of Windows 10 based on Redstone 3 that will arrive later this year. A compilation that, being the first one, does not bring excessive new features beyond the improvements in the main Windows 10 kernel that is used for all devices along with the typical ones improvements at the code level).

They focus on this sense rather than on adding new functions (there will already be Builds that have this purpose) on laying the foundations and paving the way to implement future additionsA Build that provides the following improvements and, above all, a good number of possible failures, more than logical, as it is the first compilation of this type.
