[DISCUSSION] Windows 10 Build 10162

That's exactly where I was, but I opted out as MS is making this so confusing, I'm going with there simple plan, reserve upgrade, and leave insider program alone for now, I want nothing messing up RTM.

 

I'm insider on phone too so.. I really don't want to op tout..

 

I triple boot Win 7, Win 8.1, and Win 10 so yes I qualify for free copy but will keep all 3 when 29 July gets here and not use free update. My choice

 

Then don't

 

So with the release being 10208.16384.150707-1528.th1_CLIENTPRO_RET_x64fre_en-us.esd
That means we have hit RTM candidates, or true RTM?

 

Candidates..

 

10208.0.150707-1700.fbl_impressive_CLIENTPRO_RET_x64fre_en-us.esd

 

Gabe on twitter announced no build today. That is for those idiots who claim new build today like 10166

Interesting

 

It was about mobile platform,
on my virt pc 10162 isn't available now!

 

That is hard to believe. Then everyone in the world can become an insider and get free Windows for life

Like I said I have plenty of qualifying OS licenses, thanks to my IT Business and old Technet and MSDN accounts which I no longer subscribe to. I used about 7 or 8 of my licenses out of a total of 40 I paid for over 5 years ago. I do not have but one 8.1 license which came pre-installed on my Asus laptop.

Anyway, the point I am making is, what happens if I opt out of the Insider Program today? Does 10162 suddenly stop working and therefor I have to reinstall 7?

The reason I am asking this question, is because I want to reserve my copy of 10 asap, but I do not want the hassle of having to reinstall Windows 7 just to do that one simple function. Seems insane to me to have to do that when you have a legit license to 7 Ultimate. It must be a security issue at play and Microsoft going that route helps make sure all free upgrades are earned.

And yes I too do not trust Microsoft. I want to reserve my copies of 10 BEFORE something makes them change their minds. LOL

 

ohoh..Latest known Windows 10 RTM candidate (RTM branch is th1): 10.0.10208.16384

I guess that means 176 is DOA.

And now we know why 192 and 208 were made.

I'm guessing that also means no signoff tomorrow.

 

no worrys we move on Keep Walking ....

 

Paul trolling the idiots rather than the builds.

 

They should give us 208 for the Fast Ring, regardless if it makes RTM status or not. IMO

 

Who wants to clean install 208, when RTM is comming

 

I keep hearing that all week, and yet nothing has happened. RTM is coming, RTM is coming. Sounds like Paul Revere to me.

 

It's cool mate, we will get it sooner or later, but no more clean installs for me until it gets here

 

Yeah, I don't want to clean install either. My upgrades have been going quite nicely though. I do have some sort of USB issues that I can't explain. When I plug my USB 3.0 drives in, it takes like 20 seconds for 10162 to register them, and then when I eject it takes another 15 seconds or so to eject. I bet if I clean install 162 this issue may go away but I'm not sure, nor willing to clean install the same build just to check that theory. If I had a new build, say 208, then I would have reason to see if a clean install fixes my USB issue.

Anyway, I am just very bored and want something to do today. lol
