Windows 10 19H1 Preview Build 18282
One of the main attractions in this build is a new Light Theme. Of course, Windows 10 currently has a Dark Theme and the company is looking to distinguish the difference between the two. In addition, the company is adding a new default wallpaper as well.
The modern printing experience is also being improved. The print dialog supports the new light theme. And there are a number of updated icons with your printing options interface.
This build also includes new improvements to the Snip & Sketch tool, the ability to pause Windows Update easier (shown below), more intelligent Active Hours settings, a change to Display brightness when switching to battery power, more Narrator improvements, and more.
