Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 20251 Releases

by ·

Microsoft has launched Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 20251. The version has no new features and mainly fixes various known problems.

Earlier, we mentioned that the current development test version has been switched from the manganese branch (MN_RELEASE) to the iron branch (FE_RELEASE). The change of the version code means that the branch of the current version has changed.

The branch codenamed Iron should be a new version next spring, but Microsoft emphasizes that the version currently in the development test channel does not belong to any particular branch.New Windows 10 Start Menu

So whether it is the previous version or the next new version, the new features in these versions are not bound to any specific version and may be released at any time.

  • We fixed a crash with opengl32.dll.
  • We fixed an issue that could result in the Settings app hanging when checking for updates right after upgrade.
  • We fixed an issue that could result in the Settings app sending a notification that just said “new notification”.
  • We fixed an issue resulting in the Search Indexer not being able to retrieve metadata from HEIF and WebP files, so you couldn’t search for those files using metadata like date taken.
  • We fixed an issue resulting in the Cast to Device option in Movies & TV (and other media playback apps) not taking any action when clicking on a listed device in recent builds.
  • We fixed an issue in recent builds that could result in the screen you were projecting with Miracast freezing shortly after connecting.
