Did you expect anything else with the 25H2 EP being a dev channel cab and the dev channel enrollment is still needed to get the next dev channel updates offered and the manual installation was tested not working already.
No, just a test this weekend because its to hot outside. I can definitely wait until October, especially since the 25H2 enable update doesn't bring any improvements.
yes your right thanks oh well see if my system can remain perfect, I like 25/h2 seems many bugs were fix including the one in MS apps help about clicking their license agreement pops right up no need the use the ALT key anymore
