Announcing Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 20180

Changes and Improvements

• Based on feedback, we’re changing the tablet posture logic for 2-in-1 devices to now only apply when using a single screen.

• Based on feedback we’re updating the new folder icon in the Start menu’s All app’s list to be a little smaller so it better aligns with the size of the other icons.

• We’ve updated the search box in the Default Apps settings pages to improve performance.

Fixes

• We fixed an issue in the last flight where Magnifier wasn’t following the curser in the previous build when the zoom was higher than 100%.

• We fixed an issue where Task Manager wasn’t showing the Publisher name for UWP apps.

• We fixed an issue when using the Pinyin IME where tapping “/” on the keyboard wouldn’t produce the right character when using full width mode.

• We fixed a couple issues that could result in crashes when using Alt + Tab to switch to browser tabs.

Known issues

• We’re working on a fix for an issue where some Microsoft Store games protected with Easy Anti-Cheat may fail to launch.

• We’re looking into reports of the update process hanging for extended periods of time when attempting to install a new build.

• We’re working on a fix for an issue where the min/max/close buttons are stuck in their original positions after resizing a UWP app. If you move the app window the position should update.

• We’re investigating reports that the new taskbar experience described above isn’t working for some pinned sites.

• We’re working on a fix for an issue where sometimes the “close all windows” action in the taskbar doesn’t close not all of the open tabs

• We’re working on a fix to enable live preview for pinned site tabs.

• We’re working on enabling the new taskbar experience for existing pinned sites. In the meantime, you can unpin the site from the taskbar, remove it from the edge://apps page, and then re-pin the site.

• We’re working on a fix for an issue where pinned sites don’t show all open tabs for a domain. In the meantime, you can fix this by pinning the site’s homepage rather than a specific page (e.g. pin microsoft.com rather than microsoft.com/windows).

• We’re working on a fix for an issue where Alt + Tabbing to a browser tab sometimes moves the previously active browser tab to the front of the Alt + Tab list as well.

• Opening a WSL 1 distribution can result in the error: ‘The I/O operation has been aborted because of either a thread exit or an application request’. Please check out this Github issue for the latest updates.
