New Windows 10 Build – 16179 for PC; 15205 for Mobile

Apr 19, 2017·Dustin

For Windows Insiders that are on the fast build, gear up for another update – 16179 for PC and 15205 for Mobile. A couple new things in this build:

Revert VM: Continuing our theme of simplifying Hyper-V for developers on Windows 10 (see What’s New), we’re introducing automatic checkpoints so that you’ll always be able to undo a mistake in your virtual machine – you can now always revert to the last time you started a virtual machine.

Introducing Power Throttling*: You may remember some of the power experiments we did back in January with Build 15002. Power Throttling was one of those experiments, and showed to have up to 11% savings in CPU power consumption for some of the most strenuous use cases. So, we’re turning this on for everyone starting with last week’s build. Check out our complete blog post on this for more details!
