    Inside the push button reset there is only a WIM file, wich is 300MB bigger than the X64 With Tools WIM file, I mounted and I compared the 2 WIM images, What I discovered is that there are only minor changes, so I suppose that we can just replace old WIM file with the BETA one (if the upgrade process won't do it automatically). then refresh or reset our device to upgrade from WDP to Beta. If It doesn't work we have to apply SOME of those minor changes to the Beta WIM file.

    Ok, so as I supposed we'll need to work on WIM file to have it back. or we can just change the bootres.dll with the old one inside the Window\Boot\Resources... and EFI\Microsoft\Boot.... folders

    Or we can first update the WIM file inside the Push button reset partition, then update to Beta by resetting or refreshing our devices, this should not affect the Boot files and the boot logo shouldn't be changed.

    Hi Canouna, do you have any idea what they will share at the CES? I know beta won't be released before late February, but just curious what new features will be shown off in early January.

    I don't think there aren't any more new features aside from improvements to the existing ones and showcasing some apps.
