So I decided after the recent underwhelming Fast Ring upgrades (eye control is a good feature but one I will not use) to join the "Superfast Ring" (as I call the Skip Ahead) but missed the boat :-(.

Attachment 147591

After closing Settings my gets reverted to Active but can be reset. I get a message that it has been reverted to it. It just wouldn't stick.

You may be able to reset it manually at: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsSelfHost\UI\Selection

Check/toggle the highlighted values; let us know if it works!

No, it doesn't work, it reverts anyway.

Take ownership of the registry setting and remove access to it but yourself. And then watch Settings app possibly crash! :)

Have an allergy to crashes.

Update:

#WindowsInsiders we need to look at our Canary ring data & make decisions about the week's builds. No builds released today.
