A new Preview Beta build (1706.170728-1839) has begun to rollout to Xbox One users enrolled in the Xbox Insiders Program. There don’t appear to be any major changes with this build beyond some game installation and Party Chat fixes though. Here’s the official release notes:
HOW TO GET IT
If your console is in Instant-On mode and you have been selected to receive the update, it will download and install the update and reboot to standby.
NOTE: Once the update is available to you, you can manually begin the update by launching the Guide and navigating to All Settings > System > Updates.
If your console hasn’t downloaded and installed the update by 1:00 AM PDT 8/1/2017 (8:00AM GMT 1/8), you will be prompted to do so at that time.
This update has a shorter than usual window before the build becomes mandatory.

FIXES:
