    Usually MSFT clears the way to move to the retail channel right around the time the "new" build goes public.

    2h24 -> 2h25 failed from windows update with error, boot from media do not give option anymore to upgrade just do clean install, any ideas?

    Upgrades never worked from boot (iirc last time that was with vista).

    Upgrdes are done by mounting the ISO on a running OS and next run setup.exe.

    With boot from media you meant to say running setup.exe from the mounted ISO?

    On what 24H2 build where you on and what 25H2 ISO did you use to perform the inplace upgrade (which simply should be done by installing the small 25H2 EP and not a real upgrade (will test that again asap).

    No I had issue from 2h23 to 2h24 from windows, so run the media from boot select update and keep files, but now it state you cannot do that from media boot, and I know in past till 2h24 it worked on any system
    Looks like they had removed that possibility, I will try to scan my system and try to find why update from windows do not work as M$ become pure s**t show as of late!!!!

    I assume it is about the techbench isos which links still are not alive but there are no ISOs out there to compare, guessing they will be 26200.6584 like the static link ISOs were.

    seems people keep publishing those links over and over and some claim they are from new isos, still the same as friday last week.

    And they were removed from the ESD repo, seems here they can stay.
