Microsoft issues fixes for two known issues in Windows 10 build 10049

When Microsoft issued the latest build of Windows 10, build 10049, to Windows Insiders last week it had two known issues according to Microsoft.

As we have heard from our Ring Master, Gabe Aul, on a regular basis one of the risks associated with getting faster builds is they will come with some challenges.

Some of those will be known and others will be unknown and hopefully discovered by Windows Insiders as they test the latest Windows 10 Technical Preview builds.

Two such issues were known in build 10049 and now the patches released today fix those very same issues as detailed below:

Outlook might not index new emails in Windows 10 Technical Preview Build 10049: After installing Windows 10 Technical Preview Build 10049, Outlook 2013 and Outlook 16 Preview might not index new emails. As a result, new emails do not appear in search results, and if you rebuild the index, no emails appear in search results.

Hyper-V cannot be enabled in Windows 10 Technical Preview Build 10049: You cannot enable Hyper-V after performing a clean install of Windows 10 Technical Preview Build 10049, nor after upgrading to Build 10049 from a build that did not have Hyper-V enabled.

Just head into Windows Update in the technical preview to download and install these.

But, wait...there's probably more so be sure to follow me on Twitter and Google+.

Senior Content Producer, IT Pro Today (Informa Tech)

I served for 29 plus years in the U.S. Navy and retired as a Master Chief Petty Officer in November 2011. My work background in the Navy was telecommunications related so my hobby of computers fit well with what I did for the Navy. I consider myself a tech geek and enjoy most things in that arena.

My first website – AnotherWin95.com – came online in 1995. Back then I used GeoCities Web Hosting for it and WindowsObserver.com is the result of the work I have done on that site since 1995.

In January 2010 my community contributions were recognized by Microsoft when I received my first Most Valuable Professional (MVP) Award for the Windows Operating System. Since then I have been renewed as a Microsoft MVP each subsequent year since that initial award. I am also a member of the inaugural group of Windows Insider MVPs which began in 2016.

I previously hosted the Observed Tech PODCAST for 10 years and 317 episodes and now host a new podcast called Faith, Tech, and Space. 

I began contributing to Penton Technology websites in January 2015 and in April 2017 I was hired as the Senior Content Producer for Penton Technology which is now Informa Tech. In that role, I contribute to ITPro Today and cover operating systems, enterprise technology, and productivity.
