With October fast approaching as the date Microsoft will release its first update for Windows 10, Gabe Aul has let it be known that build 10550 is looking like a good candidate for the fast ring.

It has been less than a week since Windows 10 build 10547 rolled out to the Fast Ring for those testing the Wave 2 update, but now Gabe Aul, the group leader for Windows Insiders, is indicating that a newer build could drop this week. Earlier today Aul tweeted that build 10550 may make the Fast ring:

@callum90ish 10550 is in Microsoft ring now. Only a few builds newer than last flight but may go out to WIP Fast. We'll see.

As Aul points out, it's only three builds newer, but each build usually comes with many bug fixes and enhancements as the company pushes on to ready Windows 10 Wave 2 for a fall release, expected sometime early on in October.

With that date now only a few weeks away, Microsoft will want to get as much feedback from Insiders on the update as possible.
