A new build of the upcoming feature update for Windows 10, known as Creators Update, Redstone 2 or Windows 10 version 1704, has been released for Fast Ring insiders. This is the same build which was leaked recently. Let's see what's new in officially released Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 15002.
First spotted by the Twitter user @h0x0d (WalkingCat), Windows 10 build 15002 is actually an official build that the software giant was planning to release to Insiders. Unfortunately, due to certain upgrade problems, Microsoft decided to halt the rollout. However, the upgrade problem has been fixed on newer preview, which means that Insiders can expect a newer build rolling out in the coming days.

The Display menu, otherwise known as Settings > System > Display, has also received an updated look as part of Build 15002. The key change is moving the display resolution front-and-center on the page, an inexplicable omission in the current stable build of Windows 10 that this new build rectifies.
One of the perpetual bugs I notice with Windows 10 is the lack of icon scaling. Sometimes you can un- and re-dock a Surface Book, and everything looks as it should. On other occasions, though, icons become crazily resized, and app windows get thrown out of whack. Build 15002 promises to reconcile this once and for all, and in my limited time with it, it seems to.
Inside of build 15019, if you use a third-party tool called Product Key Configuration Reader, you are able to view the contents of a Pkeyconfig.xrm-ms file. I compared three versions of this file, after being tipped by a reader, one from build 15002, 1607 retail release, and 15019 and what you can see is that a new iteration of Windows is showing up in this file called Cloud and Cloud N.
