Although only basic notifications is available in this build but Quick Actions and Cleaner UI will come in later build. You’ll see notifications from the system and apps – from new emails and invites to IMs, Facebook posts and more – all in one place, so you don’t miss a thing. Animation for switching desktops: One of the pieces of feedback that you gave us was that it was hard to know when you were switching desktops. So Microsoft addressed that feedback by adding an animation to make it clear that you are switching. You’ll see various new animations while opening/ minimize / closing an app or window. Move apps easily from one monitor to another: When you’re working on multiple monitors, use WIN+SHIFT+ to move the active app to another monitor. New Option to receive more frequent preview builds: You’ll notice once you install 9860 that there is a new option to set how quickly new builds reach you. In PC Settings, Update and recovery, Preview builds, you’ll see a new dropdown menu with options for ‘Fast’ or ‘Slow’. By default, everyone will be in the ‘slow’ ring. If you’re adventurous and want to see the build right as it comes out, you’ll want to be in the ‘fast’ ring, which means that you’ll get it from Windows Update on the day it comes out.
