It is worth mentioning that build 16170 brings more bugs and other issues than usual. As a result, Insiders may have a hard time testing it. This is a valid concern for the upcoming Redstone 3 releases, as well. In this article, we’re going to list the Windows 10 build 16170 issues officially acknowledged by Microsoft as well as bugs reported by Insiders.
Windows 10 build 16170 known issues:
Narrator will not work on this build. If you require Narrator to work, you should move to the Slow Ring. Some Insiders have reported seeing this error: “Some updates were cancelled.” Some apps and games may crash due to a misconfiguration of advertising ID that happened in a prior build. You can delete the following registry key to get out of this state: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\AdvertisingInfo. There is a bug where if you need to restart your PC due to a pending update like with the latest Surface firmware updates, the restart reminder dialog doesn’t pop up. You should check Settings > Update & security > Windows Update to see if a restart is required. Certain hardware configurations may cause the broadcast live review window in the Game bar to flash Green while you are Broadcasting. Double-clicking on the Windows Defender icon in the notification area does not open Windows Defender. Right-clicking on the icon and choosing open will open Windows Defender. Surface 3 devices fail to update to new builds if a SD memory card is inserted. The Action Center may get into a state where dismissing one notification unexpectedly dismisses multiple. If this happens, try rebooting your device.
