Windows x Technical Preview is only a couple of hours old, but Microsoft already has some patches out for it. If yous have installed the Preview, you lot should head into Settings and check for those updates as yous may have waiting for you.

Update for Windows Technical Preview for x64-based systems (KB3001512)

Bug that are fixed in this update

Issuer Distribution Betoken (IDP) sets are removed from Windows Tech Preview or Windows Server Tech Preview. This change prevents Microsoft Surface devices and Nokia tablets from obtaining firmware or driver updates.
Adobe Flash update does not contain premium video playback.
Some problems in the Compatibility View list for Internet Explorer 11.

Regarding the outset fix for IDP, it sounds like if you have the Preview installed, you volition not be getting new Firmware fixes for the Surface. This change could be bad news if you were hoping to get some hardware improvements on your device, but on the other hand, Microsoft conspicuously did this because they cannot guarantee the Surface and Windows x Preview will play squeamish subsequently a firmware update. It is non clear if Microsoft will offer those independently for Surface owners, or, for as long every bit you are in the Preview program, you lot merely do not become the firmware.

Update 3: Microsoft has confirmed with us that this update ALLOWS you lot to become new firmware. It does not cake information technology, then yes, you should take the update.

Update 2: Microsoft has revised the changelog. Instead of IDP and mentioning of the Surface/Nokia devices, it at present just says "In Windows Technical Preview, sure devices do not receive firmware or commuter updates." This evidently fixes this problem, and does not forestall firmware updates.

Update: As pointed out in comments, it is not as well articulate if they are describing the fix or the change. In other words, the Surface may have been blocked from getting new firmware and this fixes that. We are trying to clarify with Microsoft.

Alternatively, y'all could skip this update and risk taking on the new firmware down the road.

The other two fixes are cocky-explanatory for the nearly part and sound like good fixes.
