Earlier this week, Head of the Windows Program Dona Sarkar teased that Fast Ring Insiders could get new builds to play with today, but this is unfortunately not going to happen: Sarkar tweeted a few hours ago that the team has just discovered a rollback bug with their build candidate, so the Windows team needs a bit more time to analyze data. The exec added in a second tweet that they should decide what to do tomorrow at 10AM PDT.

#WindowsInsiders we've hit a rollback bug with our build candidate. Keeping en eye on more data so no Fast Ring build release today

Last week, the Windows Insider team did not release a new PC build due to a bug causing a “big impact,” but Mobile users did get the preview build 15240, which was unexpected. Sarkar didn’t say anything about mobile in her tweets today, so it’s probably better not to expect a repetition of last week’s scenario.

Radu Tyrsina has been a Windows fan ever since he got his first PC, a Pentium III (a monster at that time). For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web. Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they're looking for.
