Windows 10 build 21364.1

Windows 10 build 21364.1 is the fifteenth Insider Preview build of Cobalt. This build was released on 21 April 2021 to all Windows Insiders on the Dev Channel.

Task Manager
"These changes are only available to a small group of Insiders, meaning that not everyone will see them right out of the box, and will roll out to the rest of Insiders soon."Process classification has been added for Microsoft Edge in Task Manager. This allows processes to be broken down into components such as tabs, browser processes, utility plugins, and dedicated and service workers. They also include favicons for improved identification. This feature requires Dev or Canary builds of the browser.

An experimental feature, "Eco mode", has also been added, and it allows to throttle resources for individual or child processes for the system to give priority to other apps. It was later removed in build 21387.

Settings
The Device usage page under Settings introduced in build 21354 has finished rolling out to Windows Insiders in the Dev Channel.

The Multitasking page under the System section has also received some changes. Its icon on the left pane has been changed from the Timeline one to two overlapping windows. In addition, an option to enable or disable Aero Shake has been added. By default, both upgrades and clean installations will have this disabled.

Touch keyboard
A 50-on keyboard layout has been added for the Japanese language in the touch keyboard. It allows to input Japanese texts intuitively without knowing how to compose Hiragana characters, and it can be accessed from the "Keyboard layout" menu in the flyout settings.

Other changes

 * Preview support for running GUI Linux apps has been added to the Windows Subsystem for Linux.
 * The “We need to fix your account (most likely your password changed)" notification has been changed to read "Select here to sign in to your account to continue using apps between this device and your other devices".
 * When night light is turned on, the system will now change to it immediately rather than doing so through an animation.
