anyweb Posted June 30, 2015 Report post Posted June 30, 2015 We have a new build for PCs releasing today to Windows Insiders in the Fast ring – Build 10158. This build is full of improvements to stability and quality as well as some additional UI polish. It also has some great new features included for Microsoft Edge as well. Here is what’s new in this build Microsoft Edge: The first thing that you’ll notice in this build is that the Microsoft Edge branding is now included. IMPORTANT: Microsoft Edge has a new app ID that will cause any favorites, cookies, history and Reading list items that you had saved in “Project Spartan” from previous builds to be lost after upgrading. If you want to keep these, make sure you back up your favorites before upgrading to Build 10158. To save your favorites, follow these steps before upgrading to the next build we release (do it now): Copy your favorites from %localappdata%/Packages/Microsoft.Windows.Spartan_cw5n1h2txyewy/AC/Spartan/User/Default/Favorites. Save them to %userprofile%/Favorites. After upgrading to the next build open Microsoft Edge, choose Settings, and you’ll see an option to import favorites from another browser. Choose Internet Explorer to import the favorites you saved in your %userprofile% directory into Microsoft Edge. There are also some great new features and improvements for you to try: One of the top pieces of feedback we’ve heard from Windows Insiders is that many of you really wanted a “home” button for Microsoft Edge. In this build, we’ve provided an option for you to add it via Settings > Advanced Settings and turn on “Show the home button”. We’ve added the ability for you to import favorites/bookmarks from other browsers into Microsoft Edge. There are new options for changing what you see when you first start Microsoft Edge. There are new customizations for the New Tab page. You can choose to either see top sites and suggested content – or just top sites. We’ve added password and form-fill support. Microsoft Edge now lets you manage your passwords for your favorite websites. Audio from Microsoft Edge plays while the app is minimized or in the background – another top request from Windows Insiders. You can drag and drop tabs to a new window. Another top request: we now have a dark theme! General UX improvements and refinement: You’ll continue to see general UX improvements and refinement in this build. For Continuum, you’ll see a lot of bug fixes as well as improved Tablet mode animations, improved support for Windows 8/8.1 apps and classic (Win32) apps in Tablet mode. And when using the Start Menu, you can swipe up on the left side to open All apps. This also works in Tablet mode, when you have opened up the left side of Start behind the hamburger menu. Additionally, in All apps – you can click on a letter to quickly go to apps on the All apps list under that letter (great for people with lots of apps installed). more > http://blogs.windows.com/bloggingwindows/2015/06/29/announcing-windows-10-insider-preview-build-10158-for-pcs/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
