Makes good on its promise to inflict News and Interests on older versions
Buckle up, it’s that time again. Microsoft is set to unleash Windows 10 21H1 upon an expectant world, as well as inflict its weird obsession with News and Interests on existing users. «We believe,» said Windows Insider bigwig Brandon LeBlanc, «that Build 19043.928 is the final build for the May 2021 Update.» Microsoft being Microsoft, the company has sent out a number of patch releases since the 13 April debut of that build. So, should that end up being the version emitted (probably in May), users can likely look forward to some insta-patching being needed. Because that, apparently, is the modern way of doing things. Not that we’re at all bitter about wanting to play a game and finding ourselves twiddling our joystick while a humungous patch slithers its way down the internet. Why, therefore, should Windows be any different? To drive the point home, Windows Insiders in the beta and release preview channels were treated to a 21H1 update in the form of build 19043.
