Windows 10 Redstone Build 14271 for PC Now Available for Download

Redmond also ships new Redstone build for PC insiders

Microsoft has just released a new Windows 10 Mobile Redstone build for new Lumia devices participating in the Insider program, but the company took everyone by surprise and also shipped a PC build too.

Aimed at insiders who are enrolled in the fast ring, the new Windows 10 build for PCs is all about bug fixing and performance improvements and Gabe Aul, the head of the Windows Insider program, says that getting as much feedback as possible is critical at this point.

Redstone is the next big update for Windows 10 coming in mid-2015 and that’s why Microsoft is pushing so hard for feedback, as fixing bugs at this point is essential before the development team starts work on new features.

Bug fixes and known issues

Windows 10 Redstone build 14271 is thus fixing the majority of major issues reported in the previous release (you can check the full changelog in the box after the jump), including a bug causing the accent color not to change when the slideshow option is enabled on the desktop. We’ve had this bug on one of our PCs here at Softpedia and it was really annoying, especially if you like to tweak the look of your desktop regularly.

Additionally, this build brings updates for the music control icons shown in taskbar previews in music apps, including Groove Music, with Microsoft claiming that they should now look more crisp and cleaner at higher resolutions.

Needless to say, there are also some known issues, including one causing a number of PCs to freeze or get a BSOD when resuming from hibernation. The only workaround available at this point is to completely disable hibernation, Microsoft says, but a patch is expected to be included in the next build.

Keep in mind that this build is only available for the fast ring, so bugs like this are something to be expected at this point. Microsoft still recommends those who don’t want to spend too much time diagnosing bugs to switch to the slow ring.
