Microsoft is now rolling out Windows 10 build 20150 for devices enrolled in the Dev Channel (Fast ring) of the Windows Insider Program. This is the preview number 25 available for testers, and this is a small update that brings some changes and improvements expected to arrive in future releases.
Windows 10 build 20150, according to the company, introduces three new features for the Windows Subsystem Linux, including GPU compute, wsl –install command, and wsl –update command.
The GPU compute is a feature that allows the Linux binaries to leverage graphics card, which makes it possible to perform more machine learning development and data science workflows directly in WSL.
The wsl –install command lets you install WSL a lot faster, and the wsl –update which gives you the ability to manage the Linux kernel version used by WSL 2 distros.
Starting with build 20150, you’ll now see the new search box on the default apps settings page. The Location settings page is updating the text to clarify that the icon displayed when your location is being used will be visible in the taskbar. Also, this flight improves the performance of the Windows Security app if there are a large number of detections.
