Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 21301 Releases

Microsoft has now launched Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 21301, the main update content of this version is the touch keyboard.

For the poor experience of the touch keyboard, Microsoft made adjustments based on user feedback. Tablet users can pay attention to the improvement of the touch keyboard.

In addition to the function optimization, this version also fixes a lot of problems as usual, such as the news module occupying a high processor and the task manager abnormal crash. Users who use the development test version can go to the system update module and click Check Update to get the new version.

Changelog

Changes and Improvements

• We made a change so that when you right click locally saved files displayed in jump lists, in addition to Open you will now have the option to Open File Location.
• We updated our N’Ko keyboard layout to add access to currency and some other symbols by tapping the keys along the top row of your keyboard while holding the Shift key.
• We updated the Touchpad on/off toggle under Settings > Devices > Touchpad such that it no longer requires admin privileges to change.
• We updated our backend dictionaries to help improve spellchecking and text prediction relevance.

Fixes
