| Windows 10 For Phones |
Microsoft has started rolling out the first Windows 10
Preview build for smartphones with compatible hardware configurations. The
preview version will be available for users who have signed up for the Windows
Insider program. Before installing, know that this is a beta version of the
upcoming OS, and especially because it is the first build for smartphones, it
is bound to have a number of bugs and errors.
As you are testing the various apps and features in the new
OS build, you will come across a number of issues, big and small. Moreover,
reports from experts who have already tested the build highlight that this
specific first preview build is extremely buggy, to the point that even the
most basic features do not work properly. Since most of the apps in the new
Preview were developed for the Windows 8.1 version, they are likely to crash or
not respond at all. If you are still excited to try out the new beta version,
read on for a comprehensive guide.
Become a Windows
Insider
To be able to download the Windows 10 Technical Preview
build, you should sign up for the Windows Insider app first. Microsoft expects users
to send suggestions and feedback through this app. You can report bugs and
crashes as and when you come across them. In addition, you can suggest ideas on
how the features and user interface can be improved for better appearance and
performance. Be respectful to the other users' feedback and comments, and
especially to app developers. If an app fails to meet your quality standards,
suggest improvements; but do not thrash it in the comments section or give
one-star reviews.

| Windows Insider Program |
You need to register your device with your specific
Microsoft Account in the Windows Insider app to be able to get over-the-air
updates. When an update or a new build becomes available, you will be notified
regarding the same. Then, you can install the available builds over WiFi or
your mobile carrier's data connection. Now, you will be the first to get access
to new features and apps in the Windows 10 OS development process.
When the final Windows OS version comes out, you will have
access to a number of new and advanced features like Cortana, Continuum,
MixView etc. In addition, there are rumors that the latest web browser Spartan
will replace the traditional Internet Explorer in this OS.
