Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 21292 Releases

Microsoft has now released Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 21292 to users of the Dev channel to optimize the news module that was launched before.

This news module is the weather module in the lower right corner of the taskbar mentioned earlier by our site. Clicking on the news and interests on the taskbar will pop up the news module with weather information. However, this function is currently only available in some countries or regions and only in English.
