The new build of Windows 10 is now at revision 10125, and comes with new subtle changes.  Windows 10 10125 build shows these new icons for folders, drives, Taskbar, and the File Explorer. After the break many screenshots and some more info on this new Windows 10 build.



The Guys at NeoWin posted screenshots of the build. Some of the changes spotted through the latest Windows 10 leaked screenshots include:

  • A “new” label to the right of “All Apps” in Start Menu to show the user that a new app has been installed.
  • Letter grid in the Start Menu to help user search the apps more quickly.
  • New app named Network Beta.
  • Design enhancements in Date and Time.
  • Updated Jump Lists.
  • Universal Back button in the tablet mode.
  • Various changes and new options included in Settings.

Neowin: Microsoft has included new icons in this release for folders, drives and other items as well. The icons are a bit more matte and flatter than what was being used in Windows previously and now look more consistent across the entire OS. In the Taskbar, the File Explorer icon has been updated as well and when you download an item from the Internet, the progress bar fills vertically instead of horizontally.

The Start menu has been tweaked too. When you click on the 'All Apps' section, you now are presented a grid of letters if you click on anything that is not an app to make it easier to jump to the section with the app that you need. Of course, you can still search in the menu as well, which is the fastest way to open an app.

Windows Hello, the new Windows authentication mechanism, has finally made an appearance as well but unfortunately, my hardware is not compatible with the feature, so we can't fully utilize the new tool yet.

Other various changes include a bit more polish to Jump Lists and the Date and Time widget, in tablet mode the hamburger button will show when you have a new app and you can pin settings to the Start menu too.

One item to note is that our build did fail to install the first time around last night, this was attempt number two. I will keep digging around in this build and if I find anything else, I'll be sure to let you know.

Courtesty to Neowin for this info.
