[DISCUSSION] Windows 10 Technical Preview Build 9926

Depends whom you count for the charge. For example DreamSpark Premium can get Enterprise lab licenses, so free for students with lab installers group set, but (usually) not free for the academic institution in overall

 

Maybe not the right thread as it could fit anywhere but does anybody know if there is a way to port one drive from windows 10 back to windows 8.1? Specifically looking for selective sync.

 

Does anyone know how to update metro apps in 9926? I can't find the "update apps" button in the Store.

Thanks.

 

In the old Store, it is at the same place where it always been, in settings charm/app updates. With charms no more, use the hamburger menu
In the new Store (Beta) the Settings are supposed to be next to your avatar, but the page seem to not have been implemented, as it only shows version/cv/environment. From Win+R run directly ms-windows-store2:updates

 

store2 is the new one, try Win+R ms-windows-store:updates to update your apps, but just checked on mine and there's no updates available.

Is the new build supposed to be available? It fails with 0x80246017 every time.

 

The purpose of Tskill Conhost, is to make sure all cmd windows are closed after running SetWindowCompositionAttribute.exe with TaskbarBlur.cmd, the timeout is to let SetWindowCompositionAttribute.exe and TaskbarBlur.cmd finish.

 

This is an error on Microsoft's part after one of the updates they pushed. A new build hasn't been released yet. Others were seeing 9931/9932/9934 as well.

 

Ok, gotcha , Anyway I posted a similar startup solution for taskblur a few day ago over at msfn (see below) where you consolidate together the SetWindowCompositionAttribute.exe with the TaskbarBlur.cmd in the AeroGlass folder then runs on logoffs and reboots, you still get a dos console flash when running (thinking a .vbs would do better). but gets the job done.

Code:

@echo off
(NET FILE||(powershell -command Start-Process '%0' -Verb runAs -ArgumentList '%* '&EXIT /B))>NUL 2>&1
reg add hklm\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\run /f /v TaskBarBlur /t REG_EXPAND_SZ /d "%Systemdrive%\AeroGlass\TaskbarBlur.cmd">nul
exit

I don't get it no one got the last one 9931 that I got and now I get this one.

Can someone tell me if they got it.

 

Tested and it works, but it loads to fast/before AeroGlass on PC Restart, and you end up with no blur or Transparency on Taskbar.

 

Doesn't update however.

 

So yours did not update.
Do you get an error or what

 

I took Krutoniums image since he is my bud ; ).

And no it didn't for him : (

 

Well mine did.
Does anyone know where Windows stores the update.
Maybe I can copy it and make ISO.

 

Don't know your system setup, but this works Every Time on my Test PC that is a non vm (i7,SSD,16gb ram), my aero is enabled immediately at desktop then about a 8 sec delay before the TaskBarBlur kicks in.

Task Scheduler was running slow, reset AeroGlass in Task Scheduler, working fine with:

Regedit StartUp.cmd

Code:

  Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
  If WScript.Arguments.length = 0 Then
  Set ObjShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
  ObjShell.ShellExecute "wscript.exe", """" & _
  WScript.ScriptFullName & """" &_

  End if

 Dim WshShell
 Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject( "WScript.Shell" )
 WshShell.Run "C:\Windows\System32\SetWindowCompositionAttribute.exe class Shell_TrayWnd accent 0 0 0 0", 0, True
 WshShell.Run "C:\Windows\System32\SetWindowCompositionAttribute.exe class Shell_TrayWnd blur true", 0, True
 Wscript.Sleep 1000
 WshShell.Run "C:\Windows\System32\Tskill Conhost", 0, True
 Set WshShell = Nothing

Thanks Dos_Probie for the Regedit StartUp.cmd.
