Windows 10 Insiders in the Fast ring are today receiving a new Preview Build from the 19H1 branch. Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 18346 brings no new changes whatsoever and focuses solely on general fixes and improvements. Microsoft is expected to finish the development process in the coming weeks before Windows 10 19H1 (version 1903) is delivered to the public.

As reported earlier, the company has been facing a hard time with making Windows 10 users install version 1809. Microsoft would want to make sure this upcoming version is as stable and bug free as possible to earn back some user trust.

Known issues with Windows 10 1903 Insider Preview Build 18346

There are still some crippling issues affecting the Windows 10 version 1903. Some of these are the reason why these preview builds haven't made their way to the Slow ring yet. Following are all the known issues that are yet to be addressed:

  • 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.
  • Please note that while we’ve made some improvements to night light reliability in this flight, we’re continuing to investigate reported issues 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.
  • Some Realtek SD card readers are not functioning properly. We are investigating the issue.
  • In Windows Sandbox, if you try to navigate to the Narrator settings, Settings app crashes.
  • Mouse pointer color might be incorrectly switched to white after signing out and signing back in.
  • We’re investigating reports of the Chinese version of multiple games not working.
