For the Slow Ring cluster of Windows Insiders, the Windows 10 1909 Build 18362.10022 is now available and packed with the update rollout are the promised fixes to KB4515384. As always the case, what was sent out includes general improvements that Microsoft will be part of the Windows 10 1909 final cut.
Although Build 18362.10022 is labeled by Microsoft as a minor bump, it surely embodies what the sequel to Version 1903 will be when it finally rolls out. The latest effort somehow indicates that the development of the Windows 10 version has reached the final stage.
It can be assumed that Version 1909 is nearing completion, according to Thurrott.com, adding that the works left to do were the finishing touches. As Windows maker has indicated, the new update also focused on "general improvements to the overall quality of 1909."
Going back to the inclusion of KB4515384, recall that its release earlier as part of the September 2019 Patch Tuesday was marred by the emergence of a security alert, which Microsoft itself has confirmed poses serious threats.
The fix for KB4515384 bundled with the final cut Windows 10 1909 indicates that the same problem will no longer be a concern come the rollout time. The official build is expected to go live anytime between October and November.
Also notable on the new release is the clarification from Microsoft that testers from different review rings will be getting cumulative updates deployed for each channel but with the same fixes. As observed by WCCFTech, the method is confusing but this has been the company's way.
Case in point is the seeding of cumulative updates that were described as non-security fixes and meant for Windows 10 Versions 1607 to 1809. To be clear, the fixes are for the Feature Updates that were provided prior to the issuance of Version 1903.
Now for Version 1909 when it becomes available, the preview Build 18362.10022 is ready to show off specific feature changes like the ready creation of events coming from the Calendar popup menu on the Taskbar, per the report by ZDNet.
Users will also find that the Start menu automatically expands when moused over, indicating that the Windows 10 UI is giving more attention to the delivery of faster and smoother user experience.
In addition, notifications in Windows 10 will only get better as Version 1909 will introduce significant changes that will make the management and configuration of the feature more intuitive.
Of course, these are the changes and improvements that will be given final nod only in the coming months and regular users will only get to experience them when Windows 10 Version 1909 gets its official global release. Like in the past, it will be a phased rollout.
