Windows 10 beta build th2_release Professional 10525 now available in the Fast ring

18.08.2015
Microsoft's Windows spokesperson (who should've been promoted by now) Gabe Aul has just announced that Windows 10 Insider Preview is back with a new build 10525. It's in the th2_release series. I explained how get on the Threshold 2 -- (cough, Windows 10 Service Pack 1, cough) -- train yesterday. If you followed the nostrums in that post and hooked into Windows 10 RTM's Fast ring, you're all set up for the first public run at Threshold 2, which is build 10525.

Aul's announcement includes a couple of highlights, neither of which is particularly earth-shattering:

The exact method for setting "your preferences" isn't described and, frankly, I see little change from Windows 10 RTM. Your eye may be better than mine.

That's the kind of under-the-covers improvement that will no doubt prove worthwhile for those with little memory, but I couldn't see any immediate difference at all on two test machines, one with 4 GB and one running 8 GB.

Aul also notes known problems with mobile hotspots, and a video playback problem with the Movies & TV app, which needs to be updated from the Store.

For those of you on the bleeding edge, welcome to the future.
