The Windows 10 Fall Creators Update rollout is scheduled to begin on October 17th, although if the speed of the previous feature update rollout is anything to go by, it will be quite some time before most users get offered it (although they’ll of course be able to manually update their PCs if they wish.)
Microsoft is hard at work getting the new update ready, although some major bugs meant it’s been nearly two weeks since the last build was pushed out. Today the wait is over, as a new build finally arrives for Insiders on the Fast ring (not Skip Ahead) .

The biggest, most noticeable change in Build 16288 is the desktop watermark has been removed and the OS now reports as “Version 1709” — which is the official version number for the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update.
Besides that, Build 16288’s other changes, improvements and fixes include:
Windows Shell Improvements
Input Improvements
Microsoft Edge Improvements

Devices
