Windows 10, Anniversary Update

In anticipation of the Windows 10 Anniversary Update, Microsoft updates its Outlook Mail and Calendar app, as well as Calculator and Camera, with some bug fixes and performance improvements. At the moment, these updates are only available for Windows Insiders on the Fast Ring.

The previous update to Outlook Mail and Calendar has more features and fixes than this new update. There are no noticeable features added to the Camera app; mostly just bug fixes. The Calculator app adds a couple new features and performance improvements.
