A new update to the Windows Insider app that has been released today (this is the second update to the app released by Microsoft in just two days) is specifically supposed to make it easier for insiders to opt out of the program and just stick to a stable build.
Right now, if you don’t want to use a preview build of Windows 10 Mobile anymore, your only option is to opt out the program and then hard-reset the phone to return to a stable build.
Leave the program and use the same build
But thanks to this new update, you can leave the program and continue using the operating system without the need for a reset. Since Windows 10 Mobile preview builds are usually ahead of stable versions, you can remain on the current one until a newer stable release becomes available, so your phone will then be updated automatically.
Certainly, this is very good news for Windows insiders who don’t want to stick to a preview build after the final operating system becomes available, especially because many are using their phone to try out these early versions.
Windows 10 Mobile is expected to launch in the coming weeks for a series of Lumia models, but the rollout is likely to take place in stages, so some specific devices won’t be included in this initial release.
Devices such as Lumia 640, 640 XL, 830, and 930 are likely to get Windows 10 Mobile this month, while the rest of the lineup could receive it in February, as part of a second wave.
