What is Canary ring in Windows insider program? and how do we get them?
Prerequisites: Build 18980 or later and enrollment in any Insider ring from Selfhost to Windows Insider Fast (WIF). This behavior is not enabled in Canary ring.
- If you're not familiar with it, the "Canary" ring is one of Microsoft's internal testing rings along the "Operating Systems Group" (OSG) and "Microsoft" rings that the company uses to test Windows 10 builds internally. This link should help explain the Canary Ring for you. I hope this helps. https://blogs.windows.com/windowsexperience/2015/03/09/frequency-and-predictability-of-builds-for-windows-insiders/

HotCakeX - Well, if it is anything like the Canary Channel for Edge Chromium, it is a DAILY release. Not sure how to get it? Here is the explanation of Edge Canary Channel:
- I don't think my question is related to the Edge insider, I posted it in Windows insider forum and that picture does not tell me how to get Windows insider Canary builds.
HotCakeX - I know that. I was just making the correlation that it possibly was the Same. Good luck finding your answer.
