    Anyone tried a Windows 8.1 Enterprise MAK key on the latest 10586 Enterprise to activate it? And did it work?

    They say 8.1 keys will work. Did you try it with 10240?

    I tried a Win8.1 Enterprise MAK key before, it did not work with 10240 enterprise.

    MS released new mak to 8.1 holders for 10, same as they did from 8 to 8.1. They are not interchangeable

    Today I went to electronic store and I saw laptops with Windows 10 show the desktop of Windows 10, But I couldn't know if it's TH1 or TH2. Both of them the same desktop. Why MS didn't update something on the desktop to know if it is TH1 or TH2 ?

    I went yesterday to a department store here in Spain and I saw some computers and they have 10240. They have 10240 because didnt connect the pc to internet because if they upgrade to 10586 and show the costumers all the errors that 10586 have, they will ran away!

    Only when upgraded, not on clean installs.

    I haven't seen the adapter, but upon leaving the PC untouched for about 4 minutes, I do see the little Location beacon appear on the tray. This is interesting, since I'm looking at the Settings/Privacy/Location page right now, and Location is most definitely "Off."

    How common is this?

    I ran WU on 2 Win10 Pro systems to get 1511 and both are fine. I will add that neither had any tweaks or changes done to the system other than installing FF. I am curious if there is something most had changed or tweaked prior to the update. Clean install is always my preferred but tried the update just to see.

    Yeah, I agree that clean installs are best, and always did that for customers. But on my own I had too many tweaks and other things set up to start over so I upgraded from 7 to th1 and from th1 to th2. So far, so good, with a little luck!

    The regedit search problem also happens on clean installs. Just checked on a desktop that had it after the upgrade, and a clean install didn't solve it.

    It seems with this build the file explorer will crash on run if you have 175% DPI scaling enabled.

    MS has stated that one cannot turn this off.

    Wait, what? That little beacon has to do with location, and you're saying that they said that the Location control in Settings has no control over it? Do you recall where they said this? It might explain what it's doing in this context.
