Windows 10 build 10525 is the first Insider Preview build and the earliest available build of Windows 10 November Update, which was released to Windows Insiders in the Fast Ring on 18 August 2015.[1]

New features and changes[edit | edit source]

Memory management[edit | edit source]

The compression store has been added to the memory manager, which is used to alleviate the memory pressure and relegating paging as a last resort.

User interface[edit | edit source]

The option to use coloring to window title bars has been reintroduced, given the application does not use a custom title bar (Win32 apps) or does not change title bar color via ApplicationView.TitleBar (UWP apps).

Branding[edit | edit source]

The Windows logo branding in winver has been reverted to the one used since build 9813 until build 10166, instead of the Windows 10 branding used in the RTM build of the original release of Windows 10. Additionally, the branding is also removed on Control Panel system properties as well. Interestingly, the Home Single Language SKU has been reverted to Windows 8 branding instead.

Miscellaneous[edit | edit source]

The timebomb has been extended to 15 July 2016.
