Microsoft has been consistently releasing new updates to Xbox One consoles in recent weeks, for those enrolled in Alpha Preview ring of the Xbox Insider Program. Alongside a range of tweaks and improvements upon last year's 'Xbox fall update,' builds have debuted several new pre-release features, ahead of their assumed public rollout in the months to come.

A new update is on its way to Alpha ring users once again, delivering new power options to the console. In previous builds, users could enable an option to automatically shut down their console after one or six hours of inactivity. This latest build expands the flexibility of the feature, allowing for two, three, four and five hour periods before a shutdown occurs. This can be tweaked within the 'Settings' app on your console.

The build delivers stability improvements to the Home and Guide, fixing an issue that left both menus crashing on occasion. Issues with installation and achievement progress bars have also been fixed, where incorrect progress percentages would sometimes be displayed.

Today's update will begin rolling out a little earlier than usual, from 2 PM PT / 5 PM ET on January 19. For those who use the Xbox One's 'Instant On' mode, the update will begin automatically downloading to your console. If you choose to manually install the build, navigate to 'All Settings > System > Console Info & Updates' and check for an update. Read on for the complete list of changes, fixes, and currently known issues, via Microsoft's changelog.
