Windows 10 build 15042 bugs
Download stops at 99%
Insiders report that the download process gets stuck at 99% for several hours. Patience is required as the build download and install process will eventually complete.
Install rolls back to previous build
Many Insiders report they can’t install build 15042 on their computers because the OS always rolls back to the previous build. When build 15042 hits 70%, the installer goes back to the previous build version.
New Windows Defender disappears
Users report that the new Windows Defender opens, remains on the screen for a few seconds, then quickly disappears. The Reliability Report confirms that the antivirus often stops working unexpectedly.
Beam/Game Bar streaming won’t work
Insiders also report that streaming using the Beam/Game Bar app won’t work. A generic error message appears, inviting users to try again later, but no information is available as to why the error occured.
SFC scan issues
It appears that the SFC scan issues previously fixed in build 14942 are now back. Users report that SFC sometimes fails to detect and fix faulty files.
