Microsoft releases Windows 10 build 17107 for PCs enrolled in the Fast ring of the Windows Insider Program. This new rollout part of the Redstone 4 development is simply a small update that doesn’t introduce new features, just improvements and a list of bug fixes.
Windows 10 Insider Preview build 17107, according to Microsoft introduces new changes in the Windows Update mechanism to help devices stay continuously updated.
Starting with build 17107, when Windows Update scans, downloads, and installs updates on a computer connected to AC power, Windows 10 will prevent the device from going to sleep if it isn’t in active use (for up two hours) to give the system a chance to complete the update.
Windows 10 version 1803 is almost done
We’re not seeing big improvements or new features, because at this point everything expected to arrive with Windows 10 version 1803 is already coded into the latest pre-release. We’ll continue to see minor updates like build 17107, but they’ll only contain fixes to stabilize the OS for its final release in March or April.
Microsoft is listing the complete set of improvements, fixes, and known issues for Windows 10 Insider Preview build 17107 at the Windows Blog. In case you missed it, you can read all the changes for Windows 10 build 17101 in this article.
