New in Windows 10 insider build 15025 (15025.1000)

Microsoft is pushing out a new Windows 10 Insider preview build 15025 for PC. The latest Windows 10 Creators Update (Redstone 2) build 15025 is now available for fast ring insider members. Previously, the company released Windows 10 PC build 15019 and mobile 10.0.15014.1000 for insiders.

If you are facing issues with build 15025 like error 0xC1900401, build not yet available, download stuck at 0%, high CPU usage issue or other problems with the latest build, check out workaround here.

According to the Windows Insider team, they have discovered a bug that impacts their ability to release this build to PCs running 32-bit (x86) versions of Windows 10 Insider Preview builds. so the team is not releasing 32-bit PC build. However, Windows Insider team will release Windows 10 Insider preview build 15025 ISO by the end of the week and Insiders on 32-bit PCs will be able to update from the ISOs.

New in Windows 10 Insider Build 15025

Announcing braille support in Narrator: Windows 10 Insider preview build 15025 brings braille(beta) support for Narrator. However, Insider team also warn that there are coexistence issues with braille support and third party screen readers. According to the Windows Insider team, braille be enabled for Narrator only on PCs that do not also have a third-party screen reader configured to use a braille display.

New mono audio option in Ease of Access settings: Visually impaired users use a screen reader application to read the PC screen content and information to them, and frequently use headphones or earbuds to hear the computer when in meetings or having conversations with others. When doing so, they generally use only one earbud to hear the PC in one ear so the other ear is free to hear conversations and sounds around them. That can cause them to not hear sounds that may be directed to the other earbud. In order to change the sound to be mono mode and so all audio is directed to both ears, they used to need a physical earphone adapter. With Windows 10 Insider preview build 15025 you can now switch your audio to mono straight from the new Audio section under Settings > Ease of Access > Other options.

Introducing Collections in Feedback Hub:  Windows 10 Insider preview build 15025 includes Collections. A Collection groups together feedback for similar problems and suggestions into single items that bring together all the voices who expressed that sentiment in one place. The new Collections are now live in Feedback Hub starting with app version 1.1612.10251.0.

More night light improvements: The night light color temperature range has been extended to go down to very red (1200 K) and the entire range of the slider now works correctly.
