Windows 10 Redstone 5, de nouveaux ISO débarquent

Microsoft vient de publier de nouvelles images ISO de la prochaine mise à niveau de Windows 10, Redstone 5. Elles permettent de procéder à une installation dite propre de la build 17738.

Le développement de Windows 10 Redstone 5 va bientôt toucher à sa fin. Nous nous dirigeons actuellement vers la dernière étape du processus. Elle va permettre d’obtenir la version RTM durant le mois de septembre.

Dans cette démarche le géant propose de nouveaux ISO d’installation. Ils s’adressent aux utilisateurs du programme Insider et proposent d’installer Windows 10 Build 17738 sur un PC. Cette version a été deployée il y a quelques jours sur l’anneau rapide au travers du service Windows Update. La procédure s’est appuyée sur une mise à niveau de l’existant et non une installation à partir de zéro.

Généralement, Redmond propose des ISO une fois les bugs critiques résolus. Cette version est donc supposée avoir une fiabilité et une stabilité améliorées. Nous avons cependant encore des problèmes connus et non résolus (voir note de version).

Windows 10 build 17738, pas de nouveauté

Windows 10 Build 17738 est le fruit de l’étape « correction massive de bugs ». Elle n’offre donc aucune nouvelle fonctionnalité. L’objectif est d’avoir en main la version RTM. Sa note de version dresse une liste des correctifs disponibles. L’un d’eux concerne le mode S de Windows 10 et la suite bureautique Office. Sur ce sujet Microsoft explique

“Nous avons résolu le problème suivant: sous Windows 10 en mode S, le lancement d’Office dans le magasin peut ne pas fonctionner avec une erreur stipulant qu’un fichier .dll n’est pas conçu pour fonctionner sous Windows.”

Voici la note de version parue le 14 aout dernier.

General changes, improvements, and fixes for PC

  • We fixed an issue where on Windows 10 in S Mode, launching Office in the Store might fail to launch with an error about a .dll not being designed to run on Windows.
  • We fixed an issue where downloading a big file in Microsoft Edge would stop at the 4gb mark.
  • We fixed an issue where clicking the “more” button in Microsoft Edge’s inline definition pop up when reading in recent flights would open a blank pane.
  • We fixed an issue where items in Microsoft Edge’s Settings and More menu would become truncated when the option to increase text size was enabled in Settings.
  • We fixed an issue where using Find on page in Microsoft Edge didn’t highlight/select the current instance of the result.
  • We fixed an issue where after resetting Microsoft Edge saved favorites would get stuck showing a star next to the favorite name rather than populating the website’s favicon (if available).
  • We fixed an issue where text copied from certain websites in Microsoft Edge couldn’t be pasted into other UWP apps.
  • We fixed an issue impacting Teams resulting all unsent typed text disappearing following the completion of an emoji composition (for example being turned into a smiley).
  • We fixed an issue from recent flights where hiberfil.sys would unexpectedly reappear after upgrading even if it had been disabled.
  • We fixed an issue that was highly impacting Start performance and reliability in the last few flights.
  • We’ve made some adjustments to improve the time it takes to render the Task Manager window on launch.
  • We fixed an issue that could result in the left side of the Microsoft Store’s My Library section becoming unexpectedly blurry until moused over.
  • We fixed a recent issue resulting in an increase in the amount of time taken to open large files in Notepad when word wrap was enabled.
  • We fixed an issue where after setting a pin and removing it, the option to setup a pin from the lock screen could get stuck as the default login method, rather than the login screen remembering your preferred login method.
  • We fixed an issue resulting in WSL’s tar and curl commands not working on x86 devices.
  • We fixed an issue resulting in text prediction and shapewriting not working when typing in Russian using the touch keyboard.

Known issues

  • In some cases, interacting with your Favorites in Microsoft Edge may cause Microsoft Edge to crash.
  • You may experience a bugcheck (GSOD) when logging out of your user profile or shutting down your PC.
  • Your PC will bugcheck (GSOD) when deleting a local folder that is synced to OneDrive. This is fixed in Build 17741.
  • When you upgrade to this build you’ll find that the taskbar flyouts (network, volume, etc) no longer have an acrylic background.
  • When you use the Ease of Access Make Text bigger setting, you might see text clipping issues, or find that text is not increasing in size everywhere.
  • Narrator sometimes does not read in the Settings app when you navigate using Tab and arrow keys. Try switching to Narrator Scan mode temporarily. And when you turn Scan mode off again, Narrator will now read when you navigate using Tab and arrows key. Alternatively, you can restart Narrator to work around this issue.
  • When using Narrator Scan mode Shift + Selection commands in Microsoft Edge, the text does not get selected properly.
  • After setting up a Windows Mixed Reality headset for the first time on this build with motion controllers, the controllers may need to be re-paired a second time before appearing in the headset.
  • We’re investigating an issue where IMEs are not able to type East Asian characters into certain text fields when using Microsoft Edge. Thanks for everyone who reported this.
