Twitter User Runs Windows 10 on 192MB of RAM
April 7, 2020
https://www.tomshardware.com/news/windows-10-192mb-ram

Twitter user Nori has managed to get the 32-bit version of Windows 10 running on 192MB of RAM, less than a quarter of the 1GB minimum Microsoft recommends for the operating system.

It works! https://t.co/6wotLMV8Yt pic.twitter.com/zyNQqtlVMI April 2, 2020
The lowest RAM Nori could get a response from was 140MB, which allowed the operating system to boot, but not to run the UI for logging in.

Windows 10 can boot on a bare minimum of 140MB RAM but LoginUI.exe won't start pic.twitter.com/KNymGWzUCb April 2, 2020
“It took around three minutes to boot up to the desktop and it’s unusable with the virtual machine file stored on my 7200RPM hard drive,” they explained to us. “I was only able to get task manager, cmd, and file explorer open on 192MB RAM and the performance was very bad with 15MB free.”

What is your initial impression of this build? Currently on v. 1909 and it's so close to the release of v. 2004, but still would like to know.

Windows 10: The new hidden features found in preview builds
April 11, 2020
https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/ne...-new-hidden-features-found-in-preview-builds/

With the latest Windows 10 Insider build, new hidden features have been found that add long-awaited media controls to the volume flyout and a new settings page that shows a 'What's New' section for the current Windows release.

These hidden features can be enabled using tools like Mach2 or ViVe, but as they are still in-development and can cause Windows to not work properly. Due to this, it is strongly suggested that you only enable them in a virtual machine where you have a saved snapshot you can restore to if something goes wrong.
Below are the new upcoming and in development features found by Windows sleuth Albacore in the latest Windows 10 Insider build.

https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/ne...-support-for-older-windows-software-versions/

Microsoft has delayed the end of support dates for Windows 10 version 1709/1809 and older software and services to reduce the stress already being felt by organizations during the Coronavirus pandemic.

"Microsoft has been deeply engaged with customers around the world who are impacted by the current public health situation. As a member of the global community, we want to contribute to reducing the stress our customers face right now. To that end, we have delayed the scheduled end of support and servicing dates for the following products to help people and organizations focus their attention on retaining business continuity," stated in a new support article.
Below are the affected products, the original end of support dates, and their new EoS dates. For any products that have additional information regarding this delay, we have linked to them from the product name.

Microsoft further states that this announcement does not affect the end of support dates for software not listed above.

Windows Server Insider Preview build 19603 is now available
April 14, 2020
https://www.neowin.net/news/windows-server-insider-preview-build-19603-is-now-available

It's been over two months since Microsoft released the last build of Windows Server to Insiders, in the form of build 19551. Now, the hiatus has ended with the release of build 19603, which aligns the build number with that of last week's Windows 10 build for Insiders in the Fast Ring. It's also the second Windows Server build that's part of the next development cycle following the 20H1 update, which is not generally available yet.

While the new build is available for download, Microsoft hasn't published a blog post for it, so your guess is as good as ours as to what's new in this release.
We'll update this article when a blog post is live.
Many times, Windows 10 SDK builds also get released on Tuesdays, but that doesn't seem to be the case today.

Getting the May 2020 Update Ready for Release
April 16, 2020
https://blogs.windows.com/windowsex...etting-the-may-2020-update-ready-for-release/

We are now getting the Windows 10 May 2020 Update (20H1) ready for release and releasing Build 19041.207 to Windows Insiders in the Release Preview ring. We believe that Build 19041.207 is the final build and we will continue to improve the overall experience of the May 2020 Update on customers’ PCs as part of our normal servicing cadence.

Important note for Windows Mixed Reality users: Windows Mixed Reality may not work correctly for many users on the May 2020 Update. If you regularly use Windows Mixed Reality, we recommend holding off taking the May 2020 Update via Release Preview for now. We are working on a fix which we hope to release in early May.
