RE : Is there a way to manually go to Windows Updates and manually download a particular file No. All updates will be downloaded and installed automatically. You don't get to choose which to install and which to decline. RE : And I can't find 10049's ISO either (from Microsoft). As of now, the only most current ISO available is for build 10041. Build 10049 ISO is not yet available. When build 10049 is released from Slow ring, usually it is also the time its ISO will be released. ESD file. How? One cannot download an esd file of build 10049 from Windows Update. You download and install the entire build 10049 via Windows Update. When it is done, you can then find its Installed.esd file from RecoveryImage folder and use it to manually create an ISO fie. You will need a specific program to create an ISO from Esd. You might ask " why do I need an ISO fie if the operating system is already installed ?" Some users are advocates of "clean install". They prefer clean install over upgrade install. Clean install can be done by burning the ISO file into a bootable DVD and use the DVD to install. You can also use the same DVD and install in another compatible computer. |

It's comforting to know that if you ever need to do a complete reinstall, you'll only need to install once without going through many hours and many gigabytes of online updates afterwards. Apart from this being tedious, many people don't have internet connections fast enough to make an online update of 3GB or more a feasible option. Rod. |

Presumably once it's released these big full updates will be much less frequent. And I would hope there will always be some means provided to download once and use on many computers. -- Brian Gregory (in the UK).

What is unclear about this is whether it just applies during the preview period and to the preview updates, all of which is fine, or whether it will apply to the final, officially released version. I have been told on the preview forum that the release version would enable opt outs, but if that didn't happen I think it would be a deal breaker. -- Bill |

Hi Bill, My guess is that "Updates" and "Service Packs" will be handled in the same manner as the Preview releases. Sort of like Frankenstein (w8) "Update 1" and Frankenstein Service Pack 1 did. And with all the same crashes and problems that Frankenstein had and we are having now with Son-of-Frankenstein (w10) preview releases. I asked M$ to stop with this practice, but M$ doesn't listen to its customers or there would have never been a Frankenstein at all. https://social.technet.microsoft.com...-88ac14d3fc29/ -T |

An extra 100GB of OneDrive is $2 per month. More than sufficient for those extra cat pics after one surpasses the free 15GB, and the free 10GB Loyalty for using it more than a year, and the free 15GB for uploading your cat pics from/into the Camera Roll folder in your MSFT account. -- ....winston msft mvp consumer apps |

Regards, Rene That's like an AV removing a virus. Same sequence, disabling or removing is after the fact, it already happened. Other features, while not on one's personal (e.g. OneDrive) and handshaking and configuration settings are stored on a provider's cloud. It's impossible to not operate without connecting to some 'cloud' service. If the internet connection is disabled, then you're about as cloud free as possible. If not, you're using someone's cloud. -- ....winston msft mvp consumer apps |
