Microsoft is rolling out a new cumulative update for Windows Insiders on Release Preview Ring. The software giant is projected to publish new cumulative updates next week as part of the March 2019 Patch Tuesday cycle. After presumably few enough issues, Microsoft is spinning out the update to regular Windows 10 users who Check for Updates. The latest update bumps the Windows 10 version to 10.0.17763.349.
The build is supposed to come with just bug fixes and performance improvements for those who are running on Windows 10 Release Preview.
The update takes the OS to build 17763.292 and has the following changelog:

As far as we know, there are no known issues with this development so we can expect Windows 10 users to download the update on laptops by Checking for Updates in Settings or simply wait till Microsoft pushes out the update next month and as always, we’ll continue to monitor the rollout of new cumulative updates and let you know should any problems be experienced.
