    LOL, no need to wait next year, E=Enterprise(or Enterprising). :D

    ..... Take it as rumor: Win10TP is basically Win8.2(Threshold) Preview, things will be different for WCP, expect 7 (upgrading) updates before WCP, and in WCP, "a lot of" features developed in Project Windows 9 will be unlocked.

    And KMS will be upgraded to next version in RTM, but guess it's too early to think about this now. :p

    Edit: don't know details, but I heard something about : "IE12CTP", "DX12B1", "Office Touch shortcut@Store", among other things.

    Nah, not on this one, I'm tired about it, nobody could prove anything. :D

    .... and it was just shear luck that some MS guy over-looked the Win8.1 Update2 in GPedit. :p

    Way too complicated.... you need just to change the value from 04xx to 0410 on

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Nls\Language\InstallLanguage

    You should't even need to reboot after the change.

    Guess you guys had successfully upgraded to build 9860, as per previous post, I believe there would be 6 more upgrading updates before WCP - here's some rumors(take with salt):

    - As there was a lot of feedback requests, I heard that MS is "seriously considering" of putting aero-glass back into Win10, so, if you like aero-glass, make sure you voice it in feedbacks and UserVoice.

    - Unfortunately, Cortana won't be available in WCP.

    :p

    I have been trying to install 10 (now both versions) upgrade from 8.1. Your thread made me think one of the reason I keep failing is because I am using a Windows 8 media center Pack key.

    Can you think of any reason this would effect it?

    This has been going on for a while.

    I guess just grasping at straws. Thanks for taking to time to respond.

    This is interesting, I upgraded from 7 to 9841, but on upgrade to 9860, it should replace the 9841 ESD with a 9860 ESD for recovery purpose. hmmmm. ......

    And the OEM's don't like you, hehehe .... :laie:

    In the file DONOTREPLACE.txt there is this text, guess it's for some warning dialogue box, could be related to why I didn't get the 9860 ESD.

    Please see post 964451 for details. That file, along with the upgrade PBR marker file is used for recovery images persistence across build upgrades. As well see post 964055 and twitter ;)

    Tks @arseny, I just wonder if that install.esd is the complete esd capable of a fresh install, because in previous win versions user has a install media for recovery. :p

    It is: it is the same install.esd copied over from $Windows.~BT\Sources post upgrade, which got registered as PBR recovery via reagentc (see the other post linked above, and the /info switch).
