Q. Hey Microsoft! My Phone (which is in supported list) is running on Windows 10 Mobile Insider preview build, should I need to downgrade my device to Windows Phone 8.1 to get official update?
Ans: Hello Mayank! No action is required on your part. As a Windows Insider you have the latest build and do not need to downgrade to Windows Phone 8.1 to receive any updates. Your device is up-to-date. If you no longer want to receive Windows Insider Preview builds on a particular supported device, you may switch to Production and await future retail updates or move to the Release Preview ring to receive early app updates
