UPDATE 4/20: We have released Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 17134 (RS4) to Windows Insiders in the Slow ring.
We have also released Build 17134 to the Release Preview ring as well.
Are you on build 17134.1? If so, check for updates! KB4135051 is now published and will update you to 17134.5. This applies to all rings: Fast, Slow, and Release Preview. This is a quick download/install. Let us know how it goes!
What’s new in Build 17672
Windows Security Improvements
The Windows Security Center (WSC) service now requires antivirus products to run as a protected process to register. Products that have not yet implemented this will not appear in the Windows Security UI, and Windows Defender Antivirus will remain enabled side-by-side with these products.
For testing purposes, you can disable this new behavior in Windows Insider builds by creating the following registry key and rebooting the device. This key will be removed as we get closer to release.
The login screen will crash in a loop when the active sign-in method is set to Picture Password. We recommend removing your Picture Password before upgrading to this build.
FYI on the new autoplay setting in Microsoft Edge we included in the flight notes for Build 17692.

Looks like I jumped the gun on this one This didn't quite make it into this flight. Sorry for the confusion! Consider this a spoiler for an upcoming build
UPDATE 7/2: We have released Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 17692.1004 (RS5) to Windows Insiders in the Slow ring. The following fixes are included for this build:
- We fixed the issue where the login screen would crash in a loop when the active sign-in method is set to Picture Password.
- We fixed the issue where DRM video playback in Microsoft Edge from websites such as Netflix was broken.
- We fixed the issue where Keyboard Settings found under Ease of Access were missing text as well as visible values in the two combo boxes.
- We have improved reliability and performance for launching Start.
UPDATE 7/23: We have released Cumulative Update Build 17713.1002 to Windows Insiders in the Fast ring. This Cumulative Update helps us test the servicing pipeline in preparation for releasing this build to the Slow ring.
This update introduces the following additional known issue:
Windows Defender Application Guard no longer works after installing the Build 17713.1002 Cumulative Update.
Going forward, RS5 builds will come from the RS5_RELEASE branch. For Insiders who chose to “skip ahead”, 19H1 builds will continue to come from the RS_PRERELEASE branch. Insiders can see the branch name in the watermark at the lower right of their desktop. Right now, the builds from these branches are largely the same which is why we’re only doing a single blog post for both of today’s new builds. However, in the future we will be doing separate blog posts for each. To summarize all this, see the below graphic that explains what Skip Ahead is.
Join us for our second RS5 Bug Bash running from July 27th through to August 5th, 2018. You know the drill – get your quest on! With the second RS5 Bug Bash, Insiders in the Slow ring can also participate! AND we’ll be doing a Mixer webcast on Wednesday August 1st at 10am PDT. Also – you can enter to win a trip to Microsoft’s campus here in Redmond, WA!
UPDATE 7/26: We have released Windows 10 Insider Preview 17713.1002 to Windows Insiders in the Slow ring!
