We hope you are enjoying the current build of Windows Technical Preview.  We promised you’ll get the latest build as soon as it’s available.  Today we’re rolling out the first update: Windows Technical Preview build 9860.  

If you’re using the computer when the update downloads, you will be prompted to reboot after which you’ll see the “Installing your apps” screen, and then the new build will be ready to use.  If you leave your computer plugged in and on overnight, the update will be installed automatically.  Once installed, the build number displayed on the desktop will be 9860.

More information about build 9860 can be found here but some of the new features include:

  • New notifications through Action Center
  • Move apps to other monitors with new keyboard shortcut
  • Choose how quickly you receive new builds

Please keep letting us know what you think!  We are using your feedback to build Windows 10.

    @ Drew

    is it needed every time to quote a bible for saying some poor words?

    AND: 

    Microsoft is not interested in the flawless working parts of Win 10 but in the problems for solving them. 

    Regards, Manfred

    What is the bolded question ^ about or asking?  I can make no sense of it.

    Well, kudos to Microsoft, then, as one can have a hard time finding (any) problems.  1 or 2 minor ones, @ best.

    And, if there is good noticed on which to comment, that is quite alright, too.   4th OS I've beta tested and it is equally important to the Build team to know what is liked & wanted to be kept or what works or how hard or easy something is, as it is to know the problems.

    Cheers,

    Drew

    Hey man, I hate to break it to you but it might be a user or hardware issue. I've got windows 10 running FLAWLESSLY on my system and I have even been gaming on it... No issues here even with IE. I use chrome religiously anyways but yeah, IE works fine. Check you hardware manager to make sure you have compatible drivers. If you don't know where hardware manager is I recommend not joining previews/betas of new OS'es. :]
