Microsoft has been busy this week releasing Windows 10 build at a faster pace. The company earlier in the week had released build 17758 to the Fast Ring with improvements and fixes. Today the company has released another new preview build for Fast Ring Insiders with version 17760 to test over the weekend.

Tencent Games Compatibility:

The latest build comes with minor improvements to the game compatibility with the Redmond Giant announcing that the Windows 10 October 2018 Update will be fully compatible with Tencent games. Microsoft has been working with Tencent for some time now to fix the compatibility issues.

“The Windows Compatibility Team is pleased to announce that the Windows 10 October 2018 Update will be fully compatible with all major Tencent games. Game compatibility can be challenging due to the complexity of the games and reliance on anti-cheat services. We’ve done this by partnering closely with Tencent to test these games, investigate issues and produce fixes. Our hard work has paid off: we are pleased to say that this will be a successful release for our shared customers! We encourage all game developers or partners that produce anti-cheat software to reach out to us so that we can ensure compatibility for your products as well.” Microsoft writes.

What’s Fixed and Improved:

• The build watermark at the lower right-hand corner of the desktop is no longer present in this build. But this is by no means the RTM build.
• The issue causing apps that use .NET 4.7.1 to not work correctly in previous builds has been fixed.
• We fixed an issue resulting in rendering issues in certain types of PDFs in Microsoft Edge.
• An issue that could cause a crash when using swipe to navigate back in Microsoft Edge has been fixed.
• We fixed an issue resulting in Microsoft Edge crashing after pressing F12 on certain webpages if certain extensions were enabled.
• Microsoft fixed issue resulting in the icons on Microsoft Edge error pages not being visible on localized builds.
• Microsoft fixed an underflow in the Windows Security app that could result in the UI unexpectedly showing a very large number of threats had been found.

The list of fixes in this build has gone small and there are also no known issues which have been reported by Microsoft in its release notes. This would suggest that we are very close to the RTM build which could be released to Insiders in the coming week.
