Review Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 14942

Yesterday Microsoft has released a new update on Redstone 2 with a Build number 14942. Through Windows Blog, we can know that Microsoft is bringing new things in this Build, which in previous Build (14 936) we could not see much change, in addition to their some hidden features
Well after 1 day of use, not time for me to tell a list of changes that I have encountered in Build 14 942, just below his review.

Hide App List

There is a new option, which you can hide the App List in Start Menu. How open Settings - Personalization - Start, then slide on the option Hide app list in the Start menu .
Once this feature is activated, the App List will be lost and the size of the Start Menu will shrink and App List will turn into a badge on the left corner of the Start Menu which when clicked will bring up a list of applications. And display the Start Menu will look like you're using Continuum.
If the Build previously we could still see the option Control Panel on the Power User menu (Win + X). But at this Build, Microsoft replaced it with membukat Settings option. I wonder what purpose, what this means Microsoft began to get rid of the traditional Control Panel? entalah.
In this Build for the Professional edition, Enterprise and Education, Active Hours option increased from the previous 12 hours, is now 18 hours. But unfortunately this option does not apply to the Home edition.
Still on the Settings menu, there is a new option 'Tasks' in the submenu Privacy. This option is useful for managing applications that can access a process that you can set via this menu, call Build-in applications such as Mail and Calendar. Although until now I do not know for sure what the point of that option.
In this Build, Microsoft pinned a new icon for Windows Update that will usually appear on the popup notification or Action Center.

Microsoft Photos

Microsoft makes the display look more fresh Photos application on this Build. With a light update mode (which follows the theme to see other applications), as well as menu Collection, Albums and Folders that move upwards.
This is one of the features I like in this buid. Where in regedit now there is the Address bar, of course, will make it easy when users want to go a long root path. So stay Copas and enter, then you can go straight into the path you want to open.

issues

As of this writing, I have not found anything that sucks from this Build. Overall all the things that I use in this Build runs as desired. But according to reports Windows Blog, there is a problem when logged into Xbox Live.

Conclusion

Well for use during the last 24 hours, I can say this is still stable Build Build the same as before. So it is worth to be used as a dialy use, but need to be reminded again that I can not guarantee 100% secure because each experience will vary.
