That sounds a bit more like it. People keep trying to tell me it's 16497 but i have had that installed for months. It's GOT to be something w/ a higher number. Second of all, on the CPP page, it's 4 o clock, the business day is almost over, and they aint posted ****. BIG SHOCKER.
@xStevenx, why you get so stressed about this 'CPP' update? Build 16497 was originally only distributed to a 'select' number of testers, i'm guessing there feedback has been good, so MS decided to release the same build to a much larger audience to get more feedback. If you already have 16497 and are happy with it, then good. MS will release the final when they are happy with it Just my 2 cents worth -- bedrock
Haha. Downloadable x64 installer is even funnier. It creates recursively folders and finally it can't "find" files inside last folder because of ntfs path length limit Can't even delete files without moving folder inside folder to root first... Time to try winupdate again
Lol i guess i get so excited because i have no life and i get excited when i have something new to play with If you really want me to be honest about it haha.
