Windows 10 build 10031

Windows 10 build 10031 is a build of Windows 10, which was leaked to BetaArchive on 25 March 2017. This build continues the process of UI and UX refinement that was a major focus in the development of the operating system at the time. Project Spartan is not included in this build by default, as with all builds from the fbl_impressive lab before 10049, despite Microsoft's promise at MWC 2015 that it would be included in the next public build. It can only be assumed that Spartan was still undergoing final testing and evaluation before being incorporated into fbl_impressive builds, ready for release.
