Microsoft rolled out Windows 10 Technical Preview build 9860 a couple of days ago, but the company has been hard at work to release the very first patches for this new version to address some bugs found just right after the download links were made available.

The two patches can be found right now in Windows Update, and according to Gabriel Aul, the Microsoft employee in charge of keeping us informed about Windows 10, they are supposed to fix power and sleep issues in the operating system.

KB3010668 and KB3008956 are both available for download for those who installed the new Windows 10 build, but they’re not documented yet, so it’s hard to tell if they bring anything else beside the aforementioned bug fixes.

Both updates require a computer reboot, so make sure you save your work before installing them. In our case, both installed fine and no issues were experienced.
Fast updates promised
With Windows 10, Microsoft is trying to go all-in on a completely new approach that would keep computers up-to-date with the help of frequently-released patches designed not only to fix issues in the operating system but also to bring new features and options.

Windows 10 Technical Preview is the very first step towards this new approach, and as you can see with these new patches, Microsoft is willing to fix any problems that might affect the overall experience with the operating system as soon as possible.

Most of these improvements would be based on user feedback, the company guaranteed, so it’s very important for those finding problems in the operating system to report them to Microsoft.
Full focus on consumer feedback
According to Microsoft, after the launch of the very first Windows 10 preview build, the company received more than 250,000 suggestions on how to improve the operating system only through the Feedback app implemented in the operating system. There were more than 25,000 forum posts and 641 submissions through the Windows Suggestion Box, the company said.

“Every day we work through the latest round of feedback and incorporate that into our engineering process. One thing I wanted to make sure everyone understood however is that when we do make a change based on your feedback, it can take a while until you see those changes in the builds coming to you.”

Needless to say, Microsoft expects users to continue submitting feedback even after getting the new preview build, as work on new features that could be part of the final version of Windows 10 continues.
