Build 20231, according to the company, introduces a new page in the out-of-box experience (OOBE) to help you set up Windows 10 for how you’re planning to use the device. For example, the new “Customize your device” page, includes six ways (gaming, family, creativity, schoolwork, entertainment, and business) to customize the device. You can use one or multiple ways, and depending on your selection, the setup experience will suggest different tools and services to customize the device. Microsoft says that this is a work in progress, and even though some users may see this new page, selecting any of the options won’t change the current setup experience. The Skype Meet Now feature in the taskbar is now available to all testers. The About page in the Settings app now shows graphics card information, and the option to enable to move the text cursor via gestures on the touch keyboard is now available to every Insider. Also, network administrators can now set which apps will automatically open various file types or links with the new option to modify file associations on a per-user or per-device basis. For instance, this new improvement makes it easy to set Edge as the default browser, or always open PDFs with the preferred app. Microsoft is listing the complete set of improvements, fixes, and known issues for Windows 10 Insider Preview build 20231 at the Windows Blog.
