Microsoft releases new Windows 10 Insider Build 19541
« on: January 09, 2020, 01:02:38 PM »


Microsoft today released Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 19541 to Insiders in the Fast ring. This new Windows 20H1 build comes with updated location in-use icon, improved Cortana experience, task manager improvements and more. Find the full changelog below.

What’s new in Build 19541:

Quote
Location in-use icon update

As some keen-eyed Insiders have noticed, we’ve updated the notification area icon for when an app is using your location. The new icon looks like the above.

Showing architecture in Task Manager

When you’re using the Details tab in Task Manager, we’ve added a new option to show the architecture of each process. If you’re interested, you can add it by right-clicking on a column header, choosing Select Columns, and selecting Architecture from the list.



Cortana App Update:

Bing Instant Answers and Timers are back online. We’re continuing to work on getting jokes (and other assistant conversations) back up and running and appreciate your patience.

If you’re running English (United States) and would like to try it out, here are some example queries you can use with Hey Cortana or by typing into Cortana:

   ■ Set a timer for 10 minutes

   ■ When was the Space Needle built?

This build also comes with several bug fixes and known issues, read about them below.

General changes, improvements, and fixes for PC

   ■ We fixed an issue impacting System Settings' reliability.

   ■ We fixed an issue that could result in Windows Update “Reboot needed” notifications persisting reboot.

   ■ We fixed an issue that could result in the update speed in Task Manager unexpectedly being set to Paused.

   ■ We fixed an issue when using Narrator that could result in Start not saying the correct index of an app in the all apps list.

   ■ We fixed an issue where the Search window wasn’t showing acrylic at the top.

   ■ We fixed an issue from the previous build resulting in the Feedback Hub unexpectedly not showing store apps in the list of
      contexts when logging feedback under the Apps category. This same issue resulted in the symptom of apps continuing to
      show Install in the Microsoft Store, rather than Launch after the app had been installed.

Known issues

   ■ BattlEye and Microsoft have found incompatibility issues due to changes in the operating system between some Insider
      Preview builds and certain versions of BattlEye anti-cheat software. To safeguard Insiders who might have these versions
      installed on their PC, we have applied a compatibility hold on these devices from being offered affected builds of Windows
      Insider Preview.

   ■ We’re looking into reports of the update process hanging for extended periods of time when attempting to install a new
      build.

   ■ We’re looking into reports of certain external USB 3.0 drives not responding with Start Code 10 after they’re attached.
 
   ■ The Optimize Drives Control Panel is incorrectly reporting that optimization has never run on some devices. Optimization is
      completing successfully, even though it is not reflected in the UI.

   ■ The Documents section under Privacy has a broken icon (just a rectangle).

   ■ Remote Desktop Connection crashes when attempting to connect to multiple sessions.

   ■ Snipping isn’t working on secondary monitors.

   ■ Timeline isn’t showing any activities.

   ■ We’re investigating reports that Outlook search isn’t working for some Insiders.
