Confirmed it's a MS server issue, busy working with them now Code: Your machine is indeed checking in for the update, and the update is on the server for you, but for some reason during the eval process... ... (where they chat and say "hey, this is the right update to give you!"), that part is coming back invalid so the build isn't being sent That's what we're digging into now
Solution fix WU? Run > regedit > HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsSelfHost\Applicability Go to the above registry entry and edit the ring and ringbackup to WIF and then change enablepreviewbuilds to 1 FINALLY(most important) Delete the contents of your flightingownerguid. Then click check for updates in the settings app and it will download. No need to reboot. =========================================================================================================================== CMD run: reg flags HKLM\Software\Microsoft\WindowsSelfHost\Applicability set DONT_VIRTUALIZE =========================================================================================================================== deleted the regKeys from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsSelfHost\Applicability: EnablePreviewBuilds, FlightingOwnerGUID, and UserPreferredBranchName. Then I restarted the Windows Update service. Then I told it to check for updates again. The progress bar shot almost immediately to 100%. =========================================================================================================================== Uninstall key active and check Update (Fast ring) =========================================================================================================================== Go to Service.msc, turn off Windows Update (WU) service > Delete all files in Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download > Turn on WU service > check WU.
All of the Start Menus from Windows 7, XP, etc. are really really bad. I avoided them like the plague. The Windows 10 Start menu is beautiful, and easy to use. Thank you Microsoft!
The very recent Bay trail tablets are technically 64 bit but you would be better off running the x86 versions as with the Windows 8.1 install they come with. It's pretty much essential. 64-bit EFI but 32-bit OS. Similarly old netbooks absolutely fly with 7, 8.1 (even faster than 7) or 10 and are only x86.
OP made an edit to add zh-CN. vBulletin flagged it since we were blocking the Chinese 10151 build, so a moderator needed to approve the change. I've fixed things now
yes the all apps in alphabetical order list, for PC usage, I think it's terrible, at least they should allow us to remove the letters (A,B,C,etc,etc) and the ability of making the icons smaller, similar to the all programs on Win7. It's pretty useful for touchscreens, not I don't think it works well without that.
u still u have a lot to get out of that.....want to make a trade seven year old T400 still going strong
Works great for me. Easy to find anything I want. I don't have touch screen. Much easier than old, useless Windows 7 Start Menu.
