    I am offered 17101.1000 instead of Skip-Ahead 17604.1000 which I signed up for with my MSA. This is very unusual!

    It took a couple of times but it eventually fixed the STORE Cache. Works fine now

    OneCoreUpdateOS SKU seems more interesting than Andromeda :D

    Thank you. I have fixed it though. I did clean install with this Build Skip-Ahead download from the UUP Dump and login with my MSA.

    You now can set it to active dev. or skip ahead, at least to fetch the skip build, i just installed 17093 and set it to skip ahead. It's not linked to the msa.

    That's exactly what I did, although, I signed in with my MSA.. I am now having Skip-Ahead Build as it should be.

    I have looked into basebrd .mui file and it seems that the information that S mode is enabled will be part of Edition name.

    For example Pro will be named:
    Code:
    Windows 10 Pro in S mode
    
    For insider preview this may lead to insanely long edition names:
    Code:
    Windows 10 Home Insider Preview Single Language in S mode
    
    Basebrd.dll.mui strings:

    I'm not sure if %1 is replaced with 4001 and %2 with 4000 or vice versa.

    There is no mentionment of Andromeda, so probably it would not even work currently if there would be a SPP files for it.

    I can't perform a clean install. Everytime that I try to run my bootable USB it sends me to recovery options. Strange...

    For what?

    No tools needed for creating USB installmedia, just format it FAT32 and extract the iso to it, for UEFI & Legacy BIOS installs. Or format it NTFS for legacy BIOS only installs.

    Just compress the install.wim to install.esd or split the install.wim into multiple split wim files (install.swm).

    I'm unable to perform a clean install so I installed Windows 10 RS3 and I'm updating from there.
