Microsoft has just released a new cumulative update for Slow and Release Preview Insiders running the Windows 10 May 2019 Update. The build 18362.145 brings more than 10 quality fixes related to Bluetooth, Night Light mode, and Direct3D games.

You can find the full list of fixes below:

  • Addresses an issue that may prevent Custom URI Schemes for Application Protocol handlers from starting the corresponding application for local intranet and trusted sites on Internet Explorer.
  • Addresses an issue that prevents certain apps from launching when you set folder redirection for the Roaming AppData folder to a network path.
  • Addresses an issue that my turn off Night light mode during display mode changes.
  • Addresses an issue that may distort the rendering of a full-screen game when the Microsoft Game bar is visible on top of the game.
  • Addresses an issue that prevents the removal of Bluetooth® peripheral devices from some systems with specific Bluetooth radios.
  • Addresses an issue that may cause event 7600 in the Domain Name System (DNS) server event log to contain an unreadable server name.
  • Addresses an issue in which the dots per inch (DPI) of the guest does not match the host.
  • Addresses an issue that may cause an external USB device or SD memory card to be reassigned to an incorrect drive during installation. For more information, see “This PC can’t be upgraded to Windows 10” error on a computer that has a USB device or SD card attached.
  • Addresses an issue in which a File Share Witness does not remove Server Message Block (SMB) handles, which causes a server to eventually stop accepting SMB connections.
  • Addresses an issue that prevents an application protocol URL from being opened when hosted on an intranet page.
  • Addresses an issue with BranchCache when it is in distributed cache mode. BranchCache may use more disk space than assigned for the republication cache. To fully address the issue, devices that have exceeded the disk space assignments should empty BranchCache using the netsh branchcache flush command.
  • Addresses an issue that may prevent some Direct3D applications and games from entering full-screen mode if the display’s orientation has been changed from the default.
  • Addresses an issue with creating a Windows catalog file on an x64 system using Windows System Image Manager. For more information, see What’s new in ADK kits and tools.

Microsoft started rolling out the May 2019 Update to all Windows 10 users this week, but for now this new cumulative update is only available for Slow and Release Preview Insiders. As for Fast Ring Insiders, Microsoft didn’t release a new 20H1 build this week as the Windows Insider team is still busy fixing some bugs, but we may get a new 20H1 flight next week if everything goes well.

As usual, let us know in the comments if you encounter any issues after installing this new build. You may also want to check out the new Windows Health Dashboard, as this is where Microsoft is now keeping track of all known issues affecting all versions of Windows.
