    How do you install the Google toolbar?
    Every time I try to download or install it a message tells me I'm running Chrome and I don't need it.
    Or that the toolbar is 'not for this browser'.
    I'm running IE11.

    It seems that excitement around 10051 has been diminished :) We, Insiders, waiting for the new build.

    When I analyze Gabriel Aul's tweets regarding new builds, I see similar patterns in replying to Insiders before they release the new builds. Today I expect the build 10054. It is imminent.

    Thanks to MS for making us a social media analyst :)

    Turn off boot security. It can be a problem if it doesn't recognize firmware. I leave it on just to see what weird junk it finds. :eek:

    you may re-download from an trusted source the apps again and try the re-install again.

    Keep in mind that you could not update from enterprise to pro and vice versa!

    There is a way to Upgrade with the leaked build on Enterprise BTW ! where it says Enterprise change it to Professional

    Registry.png

    And the installer will see you're system as Pro

    I know that! Just didn't like that 'hacking' in Registry! Most of the users doing much more harm than good while editing the registry because of lack of knowledge!

    True Normaly I don't like to alter the registry myself but with the lack of Enterprise version on this build I have to make an exception ! :D

    I would wait for an 'release' from MS instead of using an leaked build!! Normally the 'release' are more bug free!

    Actually there is no new goodies in builds, except Spartan. Generally just bug fixes. I don't want any more features. I want stability. That's all I want.

    Maybe, you're right. I just checked on Google, it's still Monday in Redmond, USA, 11:40 p.m. ;)

    Maybe it was sheer good luck, but I could. I did upgrade from Pro to Enterprise twice in my tests. Forcibly from 9879 to 9926, because I could not manage to get the build activated, so reverted to the previous one and tried Ent. version; then, just for the sake of testing, from 10041 Pro to 10049 Ent. Not a single issue occurred (general known bugs apart).

    I find it surprising and a little off that builds like 10051 leak even with us getting almost weekly official builds now. When the Windows Insider program began I had assumed that we will never see any builds leaked anymore because the amount of new stuff in leaked builds is now very small and the potential consequences by Microsoft are not worth the risk to leak. But the opposite seems to be the case, actually. We seem to get leaked builds even faster although the next official builds are only days away. They leak builds, not to provide any significant value by revealing exciting new features, but "because they can".
