    I don't see Insider Fast builds in my Microsoft Autoupdate for SfB on Mac.  I get the Insider Fast builds for Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, but not SfB.  Is there something else I need to do?

      Tony - The current insider build is 16.15.148, so it should be coming down.  This is likely an issue with Microsoft Auto-Update.  I have had hiccups before, and I've uninstalled and reinstalled SfB and that seemed to correct it.  You can reinstall SfB from http://aka.ms/sfbmacdownload.  

       

      Phil.

        Thanks Phil. I just installed the latest public release and still not seeing the insider build pop up on my updater.  I've also re-selected my desire to be part of the Insider program.
