Build 21376: New Build For Windows Insiders In Dev Channel

Microsoft has shifted the times and schedules for the release of an insider build. Build 21376 is now out in the developer channel. You can check that out in developer channels. If you are a developer, you can download it and install it on your PC.

We can see some minor changes. These changes are significant in some ways, especially if you are a graphic designer. Some of the significant changes are font updates. You will be looking at different things. Insiders will be comparing menus and checking out for you. Even if there are not many changes here, as you see, there may be other improvements and changes.

There are the things that go under the radar. We notice these things after a while, which was not there before. Sometimes they forget the features or do not want to talk about them right away.

 

Major Changes In Build 21376

User Interface Fonts

The main change in this Build 21376 is UI fonts. They are using Segoe UI font, which is variable. It looks better in both small and large sizes. It is not entirely in everything yet, but they are working on it. They are showing just a preview of that. They stretch and shrink something in the fonts.

You will not notice it unless you are a graphic designer or someone who is really into the arts. It looks like it is different, but it is improved over some letters.

HDR Settings

The HDR settings in this Build are also changed. You will get an option to see whether HDR is on or off. You can find this option under Display settings. If you want to reactivate auto HDR, click on HDR settings. You will get a new tab where you can select any other settings. Scroll down and turn on the use HDR feature. HDR lets colors pop more if your monitor supports HDR.

If you play any games that support HDR, then it will switch that to HDR. This feature is incredible.

These were the major changes in the latest Windows 10 Build. They have added some minor changes and improvements in other parts also. You can see the list of changes made in Build 21376.
