    Comparing with WHICH edition? Say in Professional seems that since 16251 it is impossible to format volume using ReFS but as soon as I've activated ProWorkstation, this opportunity became available.

    Love to know what's special about 5:30 pm EDT...(2:30 pm PDT). I'm expecting, "Well, several of our key people blinded themselves by looking at the eclipse with no eye protection, and as it will take some time to hire replacements, we might have something in 3-4 weeks, maybe." (Not really, of course!) As 16257 is running great for me atm with no problems--trying to figure out how they messed up the next builds so badly--a real puzzle. Not that it's so important to me--what I'm running is fine.

    It has been long weeks without a new Build. I cannot really phantom how the bug is having a hold on Windows 10 Build developers. Nevertheless, I would want to test any new release as something recommendable if the system-wide bug is finally forestalled.

    But how easier do you want it?
    Change the paths and index nr's (home(sl) or cloud) according to your scenario and copy all the lines below and paste them in the DISM CMD (the one installed by the ADK):
    Code:
    dism.exe /Mount-WIM /WimFile:"x:\install.wim" /index:1 /MountDir:"y:\mount"
    dism.exe /image:y:\mount /Get-CurrentEdition
    dism.exe /image:y:\mount /Get-TargetEditions
    dism.exe /image:"y:\mount" /Set-Edition:ProfessionalWorkstation
    dism.exe /Unmount-wim /mountdir:"y:\mount" /commit
    imagex /flags "ProfessionalWorkstation" /info "x:\install.wim" 1 "Win 10 IP Pro-Workstation xx-XX (16257.1)" "Win 10 IP Pro-Workstation xx-XX (16257.1)"
    And all will be done for you ;):)

    It may seem "strange" to some but I just use Outlook (I have three accounts) so I can not answer that.

    Let's wait and see what will become of tomorrow release. Not that the tone is absolutely affirmative, looking at what I can see from Dona's tweet, but there is hope will might get a new Build tomorrow.

    Hey a quick question here.
    I had a virus named Win32/Delf.NRJ worm come on my system the other day.
    It took all my exe file and changed them to system files and hiden, also made copys of each files name but the size of the copy was only 522kb.
    I cleaned my system with nod32 which delete all the 522kb exe files. I found that all the real files are still on my system, How do I change them from hidden and system files back. I see that the worm placed a g infront of each file name.
