Windows 10 build 18348 débarque, quoi de neuf ?

Windows 10 - Insider Preview Build

Microsoft a profité du Week End pour publier une nouvelle construction de Windows 10 April 2019 Update alias Windows 10 19H1. Cette build 18348 apporte de nombreuses corrections de bugs mais aussi une mise à jour des Emoji.

Windows 10 build 18348 débarque au travers du programme Windows Insider. L’OS est proposé aux utilisateurs inscrits sur l’anneau rapide. Nous sommes désormais dans la dernière ligne droite avant l’obtention de la RTM prévu d’ici la fin du mois.

Microsoft poursuit sa correction massive de problèmes et de bugs. Cette construction introduit également l’ensemble des emoji 12.0 finalisés par Unicode . Accessibles avec les raccourcis WIN + (point) ou WIN + (point-virgule), ils sont désormais associés à des mots-clés pour les rendre faciles à utiliser.

Sur les corrections de bugs, la liste est assez longue. Vous trouverez tous les détails en fin d’article. Il y a par exemple un correctif visant le menu démarrer ou encore la résolution d’un souci de plantage de Microsoft Edge avec des fichiers PDF. Il y a aussi des problèmes connus et non corrigés.

Cette construction profite de modifications et d’améliorations générales mais sans nouvelles fonctionnalités. Néanmoins, une mise à jour touche « Paramètres ». La nouvel en-tête a été supprimé pour la moitié des utilisateurs. Microsoft explique

« Ceci va nous permettre de faire une comparaison côte à côte afin d’aider à évaluer la qualité dans les deux états. Nous vous ferons savoir quand le déploiement augmentera à nouveau. »

Windows 10 build 18348, note de version

General changes, improvements, and fixes for PC

We’ve made some adjustments to improve WIN+(period) reliability.
We fixed an issue that could result in the Start menu not launching if the GPO to turn off the all apps list in Start was enabled.
We fixed an issue where the default Microsoft Word web tile pinned to Start (in the case where Office wasn’t installed) was unexpectedly launching Microsoft Edge in inPrivate mode.
We fixed an issue resulting in Microsoft Edge sometimes crashing when editing or tabbing through PDFs.
We’ve made a change to improve cloud clipboard (if enabled) sync reliability.
We fixed an issue that could result in the lock screen unexpectedly not dismissing until Ctrl+Alt+Del was pressed.
We fixed an issue where if high contrast mode was enabled during Windows setup, that state wouldn’t persist first logon.
Note: We’re rolling back the new Settings header from 100% to 50% of Insiders on Home and non-domain joined Pro edition PCs. This is so we can have a side by side comparison to help evaluate quality in both on and off state. We’ll let you know when the rollout increases again.
We fixed an issue where Narrator continuous reading in Edge did not keep the text cursor at the position where reading was started from.
We fixed an issue where Narrator Scan mode down arrow navigation might get stuck when reading in Chrome.
In Windows Sandbox, Settings app no longer crashes when you navigate to the Narrator settings.

Known issues

Launching games that use anti-cheat software may trigger a bugcheck (GSOD).
Creative X-Fi sound cards are not functioning properly. We are partnering with Creative to resolve this issue.
We’re continuing to investigate reported issues in the night light space.
Some Realtek SD card readers are not functioning properly. We are investigating the issue.
Mouse pointer color might be incorrectly switched to white after signing out and signing back in.
If you use third party apps to adjust the color of your screen, we’ve made a fix with this build to address feedback that certain apps were no longer working. We’re continuing to investigate feedback in this space.
For display calibration scenarios, monitors may be missing in the built-in Color Management application. As a work around, please use the Settings app to select color profile instead, under the Display Settings page.
We’re investigating reports of the Chinese version of multiple games not working.
We’re investigating an issue where region settings are being reset on upgrade for some Insiders.

Known issues for Developers

If you install any of the recent builds from the Fast ring and switch to the Slow ring, optional content such as enabling developer mode will fail. You will have to remain in the Fast ring to add/install/enable optional content. This is because optional content will only install on builds approved for specific rings.
