As expected, Microsoft has finally released the first build from the Redstone 4 branch. Windows 10 Build 16353 is now rolling out to Windows Insiders on the Fast Ring with Skip Ahead enabled. As Windows 10 Redstone 4 is in very early stage of development, Microsoft hasn’t added any new features with today’s update.

Microsoft recently announced ‘skip ahead‘ feature for Windows Insiders in the Fast Ring. The skip ahead lets you become part of the next feature update for Windows 10 before other Insiders. The skip ahead is limited to active Windows Insider who opt-in a few weeks ago. Microsoft noted that the Windows Insiders can no longer opt-in their PCs to Skip Ahead.

Windows 10 Build 16353 comes with improvements and bug fixes. The Action Center has finally got some improvements, the the “clear all”, “expand”/”collapse”, and “see more” link text will now all use the OS’s accent color. Furthermore, you can dismiss all notifications by swiping on the screen with two fingers.

Microsoft has fixed several bugs with today’s update. They have fixed an issue where the taskbar would become thick if you booted up the PC while plugged in to an external monitor with a different DPI. Another issue where the traces of Windows Hello would appear on top of the page has been fixed. You can download the by navigating to Settings -> Security & Updates > Windows Updates and checking for updates.
