Default New build?

I'm at build 9926 and decided to try build 10031


I have no such option when I go to settings....updates


I can apply Windows updates normally but there is no "new build" option
even if I set my choice to "fast"

You can't try something that's not officially out yet.
And yes I know there's a leak version out there but I wouldn't touch
that with a barge pole.

I saw previously someone had installed 10031

I did not know they had a leaked version.


Nope, I don't want that

I was in receipt of build 10041 this morning through Windows Update.

The only problem I'm experiencing so far is no Mail, Contacts or Calendar
was installed along with it as being operational. All I get for theses apps
when clicking on the related tile is no action and the tile has no usual
graphic and app name. From what I've seen, some of the files exist in the
specific folders for these apps, but they refuse to function as merely
brings up a window wanting me to select the requisite program to open but
the official app is non-existent.

Hi All,

I am still on 9926 and wuapp.exe "check for updates" tells
I am up to date. Huh.

In Advanced (wuapp), I changed to "Fast" download build
options, pressed "check for updates" again, and now I
am downloading something large called "fbl_impressive 11041
Professional"

Hmmm. My download of 11041 is sitting at 0% and there is
no Internet traffic. Okay, I will restart tomorrow and
see what happens.

In the process of looking for updates, I forced a
reboot in the middle of some update. After reboot.
wuapp told me the update had been "interrupted" and did
I want to restart the update. I did and it did. I
have seen something like that bugger up w7, especially
with Dot Net updates. I was impressed.

And when I went to shut down, I was told that wuapp was
preventing my shutdown and I told it to do so anyway.

Hmmm. I gave me wuapp's icon, but not its name. That
needs improving, especially since the icon is a "generic"
icon.

Be fun to see how this thing recovers tomorrow. Put
a wuapp shortcut on my desktop

or ****off!

installed was about 3 1/2 hrs

I'm at 3% on the start-up installation screen. I love the "Sit back and
relax." Yeah . . . right :-(
Another favorite line is "Setting up a few more things." Kinda gives the
impression that it doesn't REALly know what it's doing ;-)

Yep, That bothered me too. I'd like to know what it is doing.


OTOH: At least there is now a progress report to the download status.


I've found that with all Windows updates, it's best to just set them to
go, then walk away and do not even bother to check for several hours.

Typically the thing I just let run overnight

Mine just finished the final reboot. Everything looks the same as before,
except for the pinned programs on the taskbar that I removed last time and
today. Classic Shell still works as it did on the last build, so I'm happy
about that. I might turn it off for a while just to see what Win10 looks
like natively again. I haven't used it too much yet, but so far, same ol',
same ol' :-)
