Thanks for the report. I don't have a machine running insider builds right now (working on it), so I need to ask a couple of clarifying questions:

1) Does this problem still exist on the newer build 15025?
2) Are channels other than Nightly affected (e.g., does the release installer work)?

Thanks.

I'm not able to reproduce this on insider build 15025, using either the current nightly or the current release installer. I can't get build 15019 to test, but I strongly suspect this issue is due to a bug in that build which 15025 has resolved.

Couldn't reproduce this myself, and haven't heard back from the reporter; closing the bug.
