Windows 10 build 17035 released to Fast Ring Insiders
Microsoft recently rolled out a new Windows 10 Redstone 4 build, adding a series of new features to the upcoming OS version.
Windows 10 build 17035 finally allows users to mute tabs playing audio in Edge. The tab audio will unmute when clicked again.
Insiders who use Edge to read free EPUB books can now save them on their computers. For more information about the new features introduced by this build, you can read Microsoft’s official blog post.
As it happens with every build, this release also brings many issues of its own.
The Redmond giant added three known issues on the list:
- Broken functionality in Mail, Cortana, Narrator or missing some features like Windows Media Player.
- There’s a noticeable screen flicker when using hotkeys or the touchpad to switch between Virtual Desktops.
- Insiders might notice checkboxes missing from certain Win32 apps. Microsoft is investigating this issue.
