Microsoft is yet again pushing another preview, this time the company is rolling out Windows 10 build 17744 for PCs to the Fast ring of the Windows Insider Program. This is the 27th update available as part of the Redstone 5 development, and even though, it doesn’t deliver new features, you’ll find a number of bug fixes.
Windows 10 build 17744, according to the company, fixes a number of problems with Timeline, Cortana, Share, Microsoft Edge, Narrator, and more. Also, the software giant warns that some users may experience Blue Screen of Death (BSoD) while signing out or shutting down their devices.
At this point in the development, all the new big features and improvements planned for the Redstone 5 update are already included in build 17744, but the update isn’t still considered a final product.
Microsoft is listing the complete set of improvements, fixes, and known issues for Windows 10 Insider Preview build 17744 at the Windows Blog.
