Though I regularly post here about new Windows Insider Preview builds for Windows 10 as soon as they’re available. As per the policies of Windows Insider Program, Windows Insider team releases a new build before the expiration of previous build they released. You can read about new builds in following article:

Recently, after installing a latest build, I keep getting the message about the expiry of it. Since it was a newer build, the expiration message should not appear at least for few time but that didn’t happened. Here is the message that keep coming:

I got this error on build 14367 which was released on June 16, 2016. As per the error message, build is set to expire at July 15, 2016 (within a month). However, I believe we should be provided more time to evaluate the build. But, since Microsoft is now releasing two builds per week on an average these days, hence the older builds are expiring fast, that is what I think.
Whatever is the reason, I hope the suggestions mentioned above may help you to suppress the message, Good luck!
