Microsoft today released yet another Windows 10 Insider Preview version. Windows 10 build 14936 is now available for Insiders in the Fast Ring for both PCs and Mobile devices. Here is what's new in this build.
Windows 10 build 14936 does not include any major new features. It comes mostly with bugfixes and minor updates.
Sep 28, 2016 Hello Windows Insiders! Today we are excited to be releasing Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 14936 for PC to Windows Insiders in the Fast ring. New Extensions in Microsoft Edge We're working with partners on adding new extensions and want our Insiders to try them out first! We have another new release which we need. Today we are excited to be releasing Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 14931 for PC to Windows Insiders in the Fast ring. An important reminder about build expiration. We wanted to include a reminder about build expiration. Since September 15th, PCs running really old Insider Preview builds started to see build expiration notifications once a day.
Probably the most interesting change in this build is the updated Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL). This build will install Ubuntu version 16.04 (Xenial) instead of Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty). According to Microsoft, this change will apply to Insiders installing new instances (lxrun.exe /install or first run of bash.exe). Existing instances with Trusty will not be upgraded automatically. Users can upgrade their Trusty image to Xenial using the do-release-upgrade command.
Other changes are as follows.
Fixes
- We fixed the issue causing Narrator to continually speak the progress of a song e.g. update with the current time of the progress bar every second if you navigate to the progress bar while a song is playing in Groove Music.
- We fixed the issue where using the tab key to navigate the Settings app wouldn't work.
- We fixed an issue resulting in Explorer.exe frequently crashing for some Insiders, particularly for those with multiple network switches.
Known issues
- Optional components may not work after upgrading to this build. To get it working again, go to 'Turn Windows features on or off', scroll down and check the right optional component and click ok. After a reboot, the optional component will be enabled again.
- Tencent apps and games will cause your PC to bugcheck (bluescreen).
- Running sfc /scannow in an elevated command prompt will fail at 20% with the error 'could not perform the requested operation.'
- After updating to the latest Insider Preview builds, you may have noticed that shared devices on your home network have disappeared from your home network folder. You may have also noticed your mapped network drives are not available. If you change your network to 'private' or 'enterprise', it should start working again. For more information on this behavior change, see this Microsoft Security Bulletin.
To get this build, go to Settings > Update & security > Windows Update. You must be on the Fast Ring of Insider Preview updates.

Microsoft may be done releasing new Fast ring Insider Preview builds for the year, but there's still work to be done. After releasing Windows 10 for PCs build 14986 to the Slow ring last week, the company is now offering ISO images of the build.
The build contains a ton of new features, including new abilities for Cortana, Windows Ink improvements, a new Windows Defender dashboard, and much more. There are also a number of new features for Asian users.
14986 was the first PC build to ship with the Unified Update Platform (UUP), which should significantly reduce the download size and install time of future builds. Once you install it, upgrading to the next build should be much more painless than previous ones.
Some users have reported problems with installing build 14986 via Windows Update, so if none of the workarounds have worked for you, installing it with an ISO should fix the issue for you. Of course, you should make sure to set your PC to the Slow or Fast ring once you've done your clean install.
