We’ve brought a few new updates to Preview Alpha this week, and now Preview Beta Insiders are getting the chance to try out a new build (1802.180121-1921). Beta Insiders can expect to receive this update starting at 6 p.m. PST today and can learn more about the Fixes and Known Issues involved below.
Fixes:
System Setup – Kinect
- When configuring a Kinect during the initial console set-up experience, the process no longer fails when attempting to tune audio.
Network Transfer
- The network transfer no longer fails when initiated from a console on 1802 (this update).
Known Issues:
Profile
- Some users are seeing a new issue that can cause the incorrect Profile color to display after powering on the console.
Pseudo-Localization
- You may notice strange characters which replace normal translated text on the dashboard, Guide, and other areas. Please use Report a problem when you encounter these issues.
