"Windows To Go is no longer being developed." damn, I really like using windows to go an a SSD over USB3 from time to time. it's perfect for diagnosing problems. -andy-
Thanks for the reply decided to use (Feature update to Windows 10, version 1903 (18362.116) amd64) from UUP Dump, It created 18362.116 ISO all installed and up and running
So I took the afternoon off yesterday, as I had to sit around the house waiting for a Uverse-TV installer (who never showed, gotta love AT&T). Twiddling my thumbs waiting, I decided to update my main box to 1903. Which did not go well, but I did eventually get there. This is a desktop computer, with an i5 7600k (quad core, 3.8 GHz), so decent but not great. I have 4 spinning hard drives (3.0, 3.0, 2.5, 1.5 Tb) and a 256 gig M2 SSD for the boot drive. 24 gigs of memory. OS is (was) Enterprise 1809, permanently activated via the method which cannot be mentioned here. I have an iso file created by the UUP downloader (multi-image, including Enterprise). I mounted the iso via Explorer, started setup.exe, and walked away. A little while loader, I came back and the computer was stuck on a reboot. Big “Gigabyte” on the screen (from the BIOS) and a spinner. I watched that for about 2 minutes, and then powered off. When I powered back on, the computer rebooted to an old Windows which was on the 1.5 TB spinning hard drive. Wonderful, simply wonderful. I powered down, unhooked all of the spinning hard drives, and powered it up. Get a message about failed upgrade, reverting, a few minutes later I’m running 1809 from the SSD. By this time, I was determined to make this work, and I always have backups of everything important, so … Leave only the SSD connected, boot from a flash drive, wipe the SSD, and do a clean install of 1903 Enterprise. It will take me a few days (weeks?) to get everything back the way I want it, but I do have a nice clean install, which is probably better anyway.
On my cheapo Lenovo laptop I wanted to upgrade from W8.1 to W10 v1809 but using MS Upgrade assistant the only choice is v1903 So I am using a DVD w/ v1803 on it to test if the laptop will run W10 (Lenovo says no for my model G500)
I am sure there is some logic in that and I just can't see it. (What's wrong with going straight to 1903? Why didn't you insist on picking any other arbitrary Win10 version instead of 18xx? ) By the way, I gave up fighting with DISM and did an "in place upgrade" (from an ISO with integrated .116 CU) to finally move past .86 (where WU got stuck). I didn't know the installer can be used like this to move between minor builds.
Upgraded an old pc with 1809 to 1903 without problems. It has multiple hdd´s. So, the hdd assigment, usb drives bug is still a mistery.
v1903 is too buggy atm & I usually will wait a minimum of 6 months before installing a newer upgrade.
