    The downloads in @whatever127 post are not available yet, you will need to wait until MS has released them.

    I have been reading the last few pages of this topic again, just to find some kind of answer to this question that just popped up in my head:
    - What are these ADK previews actually good for? Do any of you guys actually get any new info from these?
    For me, I just test the PEs, to see if my customizations still work (and what Microsoft has screwed up this time), but over the past few years this has not been very useful, as RTM ADKs are the only real useful ones anyway (from the quote above: "To customize rtm builds we need RTM ADKs").

    So, are these kit previews useful to anyone?

    [EDIT: And by the way, I did try the latest 19018 PEs, wondering if these expire when setting the date ahead. Result: they do expire, so aside from testing, these are useless as well. There have been a few preview-ADK-PEs over tha last few years that did not expire though, but that was probably just an oversight on Microsoft's part.]

    I am trying to learn about symcheck from the SDK, to find the hidden feature lists for mach2 :D

    But other then the winrecfg files, which can be useful, i don't see the purpose either, but it seems that almost all new IPs get the full package, maybe some automation at MSFT side?

    Atari800XL,
    I'm on the same boat as you.
    Always downloading the latest ADK+WinPE ISO files to check if my specific WinPE apps & customizations still work OK, hoping that MS didn't break anything.
    And like you said, the version that matters is the RTM version.

    I use the ADK/PE ones. I create bootable usb sticks for WinPE. I have a script that builds them with the latest version so requires very little effort on my end. I update them long before they expire.

    You mean you use the preview ADK ones (you didn't mention "preview")? I guess you do, because as we all know, only the preview PEs expire.

    But then again, if all we want is to test the PE portion of a new Windows 10 preview (not an ADK preview), we might as well create a PE from the normal Windows 10 preview UUP files (index 2). These work just as well, it's just that the ADK versions are a bit "cleaner" (and slightly smaller). Other than that, all the normal system files are the same.
    Of course, a PE taken from a normal Windows 10 preview needs some minor tweaking to work (mount, set-targetpath:x:\, then I usually add diskmanagement files and registry, and some other stuff).

    So once again, the ADK previews don't seem so important/ interesting, unlike the finished RTM ADKs.

    Thanks for your reactions.
     
  13. Hey! Are there any ADK, SDK, and so on isos for 1507, 1511, 1607... . Since when they released isos for this?
