The new Windows build, which comes in the form of Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 17134 (RS4), is initially available to Windows Insiders in the Fast ring. According to The Verge, citing people familiar with the development, the same build has been marked as the final version of the next major Windows 10 update. This highlights that the company is not in favour of bringing feature-rich update this time.

Some of the key features that the next major Windows 10 update was expected to bring include the addition of Timeline, HDR , and some interface-level changes through Fluent Design tweaks. As per the recent Windows 10 Insider Preview, Microsoft is also in plans to bring an extended range of Sets to let s add tabs to File Explorer, Notepad, Command Prompt, and PowerShell. This is expected to debut on Redstone 5 build that will come later this year.
