To revert back, follow steps 1 through 4, but select "None" instead.

Open Beta tests will typically last a limited amount of time. We will post in #open-beta-announcements when we've got new builds up.

How do I report issues in the Beta?

Click Here!

Select the correct category and ensure you include the "build number" in your post. You can find out the build number by clicking on the "Gear" tab in your Quick Menu, and scrolling to the bottom. It's listed under the Debug section.

Please ensure you write up the steps to make the bug happen. You are trying to teach the engineer responsible for fixing the bug how to make it happen, so this is a critical component of your bug report!

Where can I talk about the Open Beta?

Discuss the Open Beta in #open-beta-discussion.
