Microsoft is putting the final touches on its next major feature update for Windows 10 and today Insider build brings more bug fixes.

Microsoft today released Windows 10 Redstone 4 Preview Build 17133 to Insiders in the Fast ring. There are no new features to report in this build and at this point, we’re just seeing the final bug fixes and performance finished added. As we noted last week, Windows 10 version 1803 is nearly complete with Build 17128. This means the final version is feature-complete and the team is putting together the “fit and finish” done before the official release – which is expected in April. Here is a look at what you can expect in this version.

“Just like in Build 17128, you will also notice that the watermark at the lower right-hand corner of the desktop has disappeared in Build 17133,” notes Microsoft in today’s announcement. “We are in the phase of checking in final code to prepare for the final release.”

Here is a look at the other changes, improvements, and fixes to expect in this latest build:

• We fixed an issue resulting in certain devices with BitLocker enabled unexpectedly booting into BitLocker recovery in recent flights.
• We fixed an issue resulting in not being able to change the display resolution when there were 4 or more monitors connected, due to the confirmation prompt hanging when you selected “Keep changes”.
• We fixed an issue where clicking suggested search terms when typing in the Microsoft Edge URL bar didn’t do anything.

Like the other recent builds, there appear to be no major known issues, but if you find one you’re encouraged to make note of in the Feedback Hub. The final release is expected in the coming weeks, will you be upgrading right away or delay the feature update for a while?
