Microsoft Launches New Windows 10 SDK Preview 16255



Microsoft has announced the release of the new Windows 10 Preview Build of the SDK. The company says the Preview SDK is Build 16225 and comes with plenty of bug fixes and new changes to the API surface area.


Additionally, Microsoft points out that that this SDK is for those running Windows 10 Insider Previews from Build 16225 and newer. Users interested in downloading the new SDK can do so from the Windows Insider developer section.


In its announcement, the company says the new SDK works with previous Windows SDK builds. It also works within Visual Studio 2017. Microsoft says the release also allows users to continue submitting apps to the Windows Store.

Regarding Visual Studio, Windows SDK now only works exclusively with VS 2017. Microsoft also discusses known issues, such as the designer failing to render when viewing XAML and Designer Windows.


Known Issues


Designer fails to render: When viewing the XAML in the Designer Window in Visual Studio, the controls fail to render. This can be resolved by using Visual Studio 2017.3 Preview.

Compilation fails on non-Windows 10 platforms: When building apps on previous platforms, you may get a build error:

C:\program files (x860\Windows Kits\10\bin\10.0.16225.0\x86\genxbf.dll:C:\program files (x860\Windows Kits\10\bin\10.0.16225.0\x86\genxbf.dll(0,0): Error WMC0621: Cannot resolve ‘GenXbf.dll’ under path ‘C:\program files (x860\Windows Kits\10\bin\10.0.16225.0\x86\genxbf.dll’. Please install the latest version of the Windows 10 Software Development Kit.
Process ‘msbuild.exe’ exited with code ‘1’.


This will occur if the minimum target platform version is set to 10.0.16225.0. To work around this, right click on your project file and choose properties or open your project file in your favorite editor, and change the version to a previous released SDK.
