Windows 10: Announcing Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 14367 for PC and Mobile

- PC and Mobile updated
- all appears fine..

- will test Continuum on 950XL later on..

 

Builds are coming out so rapidly I can't evaluate them.

 

Peculiar Setup. Clean installed 14367, took about 20 minutes. The mouse is detected on the boot up screen and the first part of the install. After reboot after the five green ticks, no mouse. I had to recall keyboard navigation skills. When it finishes, mouse is back.

Other point, downloading defender updates, I got a retry screen. retried and it downloaded and installed.

 

- I notice that 14367 installed with the latest AMD Beta (16.6.1) intact..
- that's neat! *Biggrin

 

Ah, just the info I wanted to see--thanks! They must've fixed the Win10 SHA-2 certificates...! Good deal!

 

Hi there

Thanks for the info

Just to be obtuse though - I always look through the bugs and see If I can get them to appear on a machine -- so far I haven't actually managed to reproduce any apart from a very tiny few obvious ones like when file explorer wasn't working properly.

Mind you I'm sure if I ran a machine normally I would encounter loads. !!!!!!.

Cheers

Got it!

Many thanks

 

Right now all of the updates are focused on bug fixes and not much else so there really isn't that much to evaluate now.

 

Yes, I know, but it takes some time playing with the system to find and report bugs. I am thrilled to have the opportunity to participate in reviewing the builds. And I think that each build gets better, at least recently!

 

Geeks, I finished a tutorial about how to add an existing Hyper-V Windows virtual machine's virtual hard disk in host system's boot menu in about one minute and then natively boot to this VHD. The tut is here: Hyper-V - Native Boot VHD - Windows 10 Forums

An accidental additional feature I noticed when writing the tut is that it allows those Windows 10 users who are using the official release, not opted in for Insider builds to test the latest Insider build without installing anything, keeping Windows 10 official release as their main OS.

The same if a user is in slow ring, the tut tells how to test the latest fast ring build staying in slow ring, keeping the slow ring build as main OS.

Short: The method told in tutorial gives users a possibility to test the fast ring builds in real hardware before deciding if they want to opt in, without installing Windows or any other software. The tutorial tells how, this tip quote from end of its Part Two:

 

I think that the frequency of Insider build release will accelerate between now and the official Anniversary release coming up...and as Bunny mentioned, features are being frozen and it's more like bug-fixing from now on.

I'm still having install problems, even with 14367 today...so they've got some work ahead--mind you, I specifically limit myself to upgrade installations, though. I'm giving them Feedback on the problems, of course--today for instance, the first flight-upgrade attempt failed with a lockup and a hard reset and an auto-reversion to 14366. For the second attempt, I did what I have had to do many times--disabling secure boot, as well as making sure that all previous Insider install files were cleaned from c:\ *.~BT before attempting the flight-upgrade--no dice, there, either, as the install again locked up at around ~23% complete--had to hard reset once again and auto-revert to 14366.

Third attempt, I built an ISO from the install.esd, kept secure boot off, and lo and behold I flight-upgraded upgraded to 14367 from 14366 without issue! Finally...*Wink But, hey...that's life in the beta lane, eh?

 

Very nicely done, Kari...! It's the kind of thing that makes this site an invaluable resource.

 

That is too bad but as you said 'life in the beta lane' isn't pleasant and installs such as this needs reporting. That's our purpose and that's why I say we need a little more usage time to ferret out the bugs so at release time we can all reap the benefits of a near-bug-free product.

 

Noticed accidentally that Edge now opens on the display it was last time closed. Until now it has only been capable to open on display 1. Very nice, it was quite annoying always open Edge then immediately move it to secondary display where I want it.

 

@waltc. Something is really screwed up with your system as what you are experiencing certainly isn't normal, beta or no beta.

Good luck with finding the real problem!
