Thank you to everyone who have used our previous betas and providing feedback as it’s very helpful for our ongoing stability and development. Please continue to report bugs with steps to repo, system information and diagnostic logs on the v15 beta sub forum and if you have a bug, please review the forum for similar issues in the specific beta build you are using before you start a new thread.
