    How to enable the Windows Insider Feedback Hub

    So, in case you can’t find the Insider Hub and you want to use it again, you need to follow these steps:

    This path is a bit different on the new Windows 10 builds. Namely, you need to navigate to Settings > Apps > Apps & Features and then click on Manage Options Features.

    After Windows 10 was officially released, the Insider Hub was once again included in preview Builds, but there are users who have reported that they are still missing it.

    According to other users, the Insider Hub is installed, but when loaded, it says the following –  ‘please sign in and connect. To use Insider Hub, make sure you’re connected to the internet and signed in with a Microsoft Account that’s registered in the Windows Insider Program.‘ Here’s what somebody suggests to try out:

    I have seen some times where Insider Hub App appears to be installed, but it is an old version and will not launch. I tried uninstalling mine and reinstalling it too. I had to restart before it became available to reinstall.
    Because Insider Hub is not detecting that your Windows login is a verified MSA and an Insider account, you could also try uninstalling it, Stopping Insider builds, switching to a local Windows Admin account, restarting, switching back to an MSA Windows login, verifying the account with a code or smart phone app, Start Insider builds and another restart, before joining the Fast Ring.  Then install Insider Hub and see if it works.

    And here’s another idea:

    Running setup.exe from the official Windows 10 media, as if you are upgrading to a new version, might also be an idea to try, if you have never done that. If you do this, choose to keep Windows settings and skip past all screens asking for a product key.
    The option to Start Windows Insider Builds is in Windows Update, even on clean installs of the official Windows 10 media.  I think anyone can join that way, even if their MSA login was not previously registered on the Insider program.
