Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 17639 Released
Although we are still waiting for Microsoft’s official release of Windows 10 Redstone 4, the users of the Skip Ahead option on the Fast channel have once again obtained the Redstone 5 update — Build 17639.
The Sets function first began to advance in the Redstone 4 branch. Its main function is to integrate multiple applications into tabs and operate and manage them like web pages in the browser, which greatly improves work efficiency. Due to factors such as time and effort, this feature did not appear in the Redstone 4 branch, but this feature has become more sophisticated and will meet with you in the Redstone 5 branch.
Here are some new things about the Sets feature:
This version update contains some new features but mainly focuses on the Sets function.
- Drag and drop app tabs within and between Sets windows is now supported: It works just like it sounds! You can now drag an app tab around within the Set or combine tabbed app windows into Sets.
- Tabs are now bubbled up in Alt + Tab: Have Photos, Microsoft Edge, and OneNote tabbed together? You can now use Alt + Tab to switch between them. Prefer to only show the primary window in Alt + Tab? There’s a new setting – more on that in just a moment
- Improved Settings for Sets: updated the Settings for Sets via Settings > System > Multitasking.
- File Explorer & Sets Improvements
- New context menu options for tabs in Sets
- Improvements to Previous Tabs
- fixed an issue where the active tab color wouldn’t be visible until you hovered over it.
- We’ve been working on our polish, and you’ll notice that switching between open tabs is now a lot smoother.
- improved the reliability when restoring tabs, fixing some issues where tabs didn’t restore as expected.
- fixed an issue where closing a tab in a Set then immediately opening a new tab might result in the window unexpectedly maximizing.
