[DISCUSSION] Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 17661.1001 (PC) [FAST - RS_Prerelease]

The setting for changing print screen to use snipping tool instead doesn't seem to do anything for me. Print Screen still takes a regular print screen instead of launching snipping tool even after activating the option for it to use snipping instead.

 

I was in Fast ring (17134.1) and yesterday Windows Update downloaded this update. Installed but never being able to boot, giving GSOD every time.

I created a bootable USB disk with Rufus, but it only give me Choose your keyboard layout and not the normal Windows installation screens. Any help please?

What are these baseless package in UUP files? Like baseless_Microsoft-Windows-LanguageFeatures-Basic-lang-Package-amd64.cab and baseless_amd64fre_Client_lang_lp.cab

 

I updated the BIOS of the laptop and it still show the error. I'm pretty sure it's bug.

 

Do you use Hyper-V? That will cause GSOD.

 

Same for me initially but after a few reboots it's now working.

 

Hello,
I can not install it, it always blocks at 80%, how can I do it?
Thanks for your help

My explorer.exe keeps restarting it self over and over.. I know there is a known bug that some windows 10 notifications might crash explorer.exe so I disabled all notifications and it still keeps happening... It happens like every 30 seconds or so. Impossible to use.

 

Deactivate the Timeline function.

 

Deactivating the Timeline function doesn't help. Seems like I have to roll-back to 17655.

 

Greetings from Lima, Peru !!!

Having problems trying to update VM running Skip Ahead 17655.1 to 17661.1001 and Windows Update is stuck at "Preparing to Install - 100%", together with ten more updates for MS Office 2016 "Pending Install".

Have tried running the Update Troubleshooter several times (both the internal version and the downloadable one) with no luck.

Also tried deleting folder SoftwareDistribution which downloaded the same updates from scratch once more and once again it gets stuck at "Preparing to Install - 100%".

Any suggestions before I try a clean install?

Thanks in advance,

I think if you running beta build on vm, it's better to do clean install. It's faster. This is my opinion.

 

Mine did the same thing using WU for my install
Check my post on page 2 of this thread for what I did/had to go through to get mine updated.

 

Until now I realize this change:

Spoiler

I'm not sure if it was done in this build or in a previous one, I'll try to check it...

Edit: I already checked, that change was made in this build:

Spoiler: Tile view in the file explorer

 

Thank you for explaining me, I do not understand the technique.
Thank you

After some attempts on two notebooks with the same problem, I've downloaded UUP-files using UUPDL, created an ISO and upgraded systems from ISO. Hope in the next RS5 build this issue will be fixed. BTW: MS have seriously changed Setup code and logic in 17661 and for sure an issue is a result of those changes.

 

Thank you I found.
Everything is installed, super
thank you
Nicolas

 

Now the last build is 17666.
It could be the next build ?
