Microsoft rolled out yet another build of Windows 10 to Insiders, but the new build doesn't contain any new features. Instead, it acts as a test for Microsoft's servicing pipeline. The build brings Windows 10 to build 20236.1005 (KB4587587).

This isn't the first time we've seen Microsoft roll out a build without features to test things out. Testing the service pipeline is a normal practice for Microsoft leading up to the release of new updates.
