Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 18298 Releases
Today Microsoft released the Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 18298 for Fast Ring. Windows 10 Build 18298 contains a lot of updates, but it’s worth noting that 19H1 doesn’t introduce new features that are too disruptive, and its focus seems to be on improvements rather than introducing new features.
What’s new
Consolidating your sign-in options
set out to simplify sign-in settings, to increase visual clarity, and improve ease of use. Our goal is to give you a one-stop shop for all your sign-in settings, and today we’re adding one more to the list: You can now set up a security key straight from Settings.
File Explorer Improvements
Updated File Explorer Icon: We’re updating the File Explorer icon, so it looks better with the new light theme. Thanks everyone who shared feedback about this! Here’s what it looks like now:
Updating the default downloads folder sorting: More often than not, when you download a file, you don’t change the name before downloading it. Because of that, the names aren’t always very memorable (cake_134_small_red.jpg anyone?). This makes sorting by name less optimal since it’s hard to find the file you’re looking for, so we’re updating the default sorting to show the most recently downloaded file at the top of the list instead.
Start menu improvements
Quick unpin for groups and folders: Sometimes you just wanna quickly start fresh – over the last few weeks we’ve been rolling out the ability to unpin groups and folders in Start via a new context menu entry. As of today, that option is now available to all Insiders in the Fast ring!
