    How do I run maintenance? I have been seeing that running this will make it start the download, if this is true, how to do it?

    They don't believe it's that simple..and they think they will get some magical new build that is totally different than RTM. It will all become so much more clear in the next 12 hours.

    Did they change the install process? In all my previous builds the ESD remained (even in 10240 as an insider). My download has not completed yet so I can't comment on whether this has changed for the free upgrade offer.

    KB2267602 keeps failing since I forcibly disabled Windows Defender. Running BitDefender flawlessly. :)

    Personally I see no point in upgrading this slow way via Microsoft. Since most people would rather want a clean install later anyway.... :)

    Right! Microsoft goes through the trouble of creating a nice unique index for all their updates (KB**********) but then provides no other description about them.

    I don't know, some people still have the ESD and I do not. I had three different machines and three different OSes get it downloaded today and not one of them had the ESD when it finished, they all had been complete extracted and the $windows~BT folder on all three have almost 17000 files each now.
