<p>Starting at 2:00 p.m. PDT today, members of the Xbox One Preview Alpha Skip Ahead Ring will begin receiving the latest Xbox One system update (1810.180706-1920). Read on for more about the fixes and known issues in the latest 1810 system update. This build has the same features as 1806 plus more to be announced over the coming weeks!</p>
<h2><strong>IMPORTANT BUILD NOTE : Console Refresh </strong></h2>
<p>Thank you all for helping flight the early version of 1810 (Redstone 5) builds. Numerous users have reported an issue with various apps and games being unable to launch after the upgrade from 1806 (Redstone 4) to 1810 (Redstone 5).</p>
<p>Thanks to your bug reports, our teams were able to determine that the core OS was corrupted during this recent update. Unfortunately, the only fix for this that works post-upgrade is an OS refresh. Therefore, today’s system update will automatically <strong>Factory Refresh</strong> your console (Your apps, games and cloud saves will remain intact – however, the refresh will remove the credentials for media apps, etc.). We understand that this is frustrating, and thank you for your patience in identifying this critical issue.</p>
