Windows 10 Insider Preview: Build 18334 rückt Gaming unter Windows in den Vordergrund

Eine neue Windows 10 Insider Preview-Build wird gerade an alle Insider im Fast Ring verteilt und trägt die Versionsnummer 18334. Das Update kümmert sich vorrangig darum, das Thema Gaming mehr in den Fokus der ambitionierten Spieler unter Windows zu rücken.

Um genau zu sein schreibt Microsoft, dass man neue Technologien implementiert habe, die die Spielerfahrung verbessern soll und bietet dafür an, für einen vorübergehenden Zeitraum das Game State of Decay kostenlos auf dem System spielen zu dürfen, um jene Technologien für Microsoft zu erproben.

Nun heißt es hierzu aber auch weitergehend, dass aktuell nur ein paar wenige Slots für den Test bereit stehen würden und ihr euch daher beeilen müsstet, daran teilnehmen zu können. Man habe aber durchaus noch vor, die Kapazitäten in der kommenden Zeit noch ein wenig auszubauen, so Microsoft. Solltet ihr Build 18334 bereits installiert haben und euch das Ganze mal anschauen wollen, so findet ihr in der entsprechenden Meldung auch direkt eine Installationsanweisung und was zu beachten ist.

General changes, improvements, and fixes for PC

REMINDER: The new tamper protection setting in the Windows Security app protects your device by helping to prevent bad actors from tampering with the most important security settings. The setting is designed to be on by default, however the default state is not currently in effect for current Insider Preview builds. You may see a new recommendation in the Windows Security app suggesting you turn this setting on.

Known issues

  • The Windows Security app may show an unknown status for the Virus & threat protection area, or not refresh properly. This may occur after upgrade, restart, or settings changes.
  • Launching games that use anti-cheat software may trigger a bugcheck (GSOD).
  • Creative X-Fi sound cards are not functioning properly. We are partnering with Creative to resolve this issue.
  • While night light functionality is back up and running, we’re continuing to investigate issues in this space.
  • When performing Reset this PC and selecting Keep my files on a device that has Reserved Storage enabled the user will need to initiate an extra reboot to ensure Reserved Storage is working again properly.
  • Some Realtek SD card readers are not functioning properly. We are investigating the issue.
  • After upgrade, there might be two Narrator voices talking at the same time. Reboot the machine once, this issue will go away.
  • Some of the Real-Time Protection options for Malwarebytes Premium are not able to be turned on.
  • MSA user after password change may not be able to login at next attempt. Reboot fixes the problem.
  • If Magnifier is enabled and set to docked mode, machine will crash and reboot on sign-in creating a boot loop. We recommend anyone who uses Magnifier to disable docked mode for this flight. A fix for this will be in an upcoming build. For users who upgraded and encountered this reboot condition, you can try turning off Magnifier by pressing Win + Esc at sign-in, then change the Magnifier View to Lens or Full screen in the Magnifier settings.

Known issues for Developers

If you install any of the recent builds from the Fast ring and switch to the Slow ring – optional content such as enabling developer mode will fail. You will have to remain in the Fast ring to add/install/enable optional content. This is because optional content will only install on builds approved for specific rings.

    Ist den Pfeifen im Management von Microsoft eigentlich bewusst, dass Windows ein (leider oft noch immer notwendiges) Betriebssystem ist und KEINE Plattform für Game-Daddler ?
    Statt neue „Game-Experience“ zu schaffen, sollte vielleicht endlich mal ein auf Anhieb halbwegs funktionstüchtiges Update generiert werden.
