Fixes
General
Fixed a crash in d3d9.dll that was preventing certain apps from launching for some Insiders starting with Build 27802.
File Explorer
- The performance of extracting archived files in Explorer has been improved. This will be especially noticeable when unpacking a large number of small files.
- Fixed an issue where the Home page in File Explorer might not load correctly and display random floating "Name" text.
Taskbar and system tray
- Fixed an issue where the corners of application thumbnails on the taskbar might be drawn with the wrong corner radius.
- Fixed an issue where underlines under app icons on the taskbar might remain visible even if the app was closed.
Input
Fixed a crash in ctmon.exe that could affect the ability to enter text.
Settings
- Fixed an issue where the error "The instruction at 0×00007FFEDEBDC003 referenced memory at 0×0000000000000010. The memory could not be 'read'" was displayed when launching the Settings app. This caused the app to stop responding. You might also receive a similar RuntimeBroker.exe error message when the crash occurs.
- Fixed an issue for Japanese users where the name displayed at the top of Settings > Accounts was shown in the format "First Name Last Name" instead of the expected "Last Name First Name" format.
Graphics
- Fixed an issue that could cause video playback to become slow when using multiple monitors after switching from Show on 2 only to Duplicate these displays.
- Several fixes have been made to address an issue where the Settings app would crash when opening System > Display > Graphics.
- Fixed a major issue where some games would fail to launch after a system update, displaying the message "DirectX function CreateComputePipelineState failed with E_INVALIDARG" or "StorePipeline failed with E_UNEXPECTED".
Administrator protection
- Fixed an issue where Visual Studio Code would fail to install when admin protection was enabled.
Remote Desktop
- Fixed an issue that could cause Remote Desktop to freeze when connecting.
Other
- Fixed a major issue where some applications would fail to open with the error: "The application was unable to load a required virtual machine component."
