Windows 10: Announcing Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 14942 for PC on Fast ring

In Settings/System/About there are 4 toggles with no description; what might they be for?

 

I downloaded the build last night and made an iso and just started installing a clean install this morning but it keeps getting stuck at just a moment right after the wifi and express settings window, tried this 5 times so far with and without internet connection and same thing happens, gets stuck there for more than an hour, any help?

 

Had no issues in getting British English PRO and Education upgraded, no issues in upgrading Finnish and Swedish PRO, but US English PRO build 14936 is now acting strange.

I only have US English PRO Insider on one Asus laptop and on two Hyper-V virtual machines on that same laptop. All of them are now refusing to find the upgrade, all three showing this:





Checking Update history shows on host (laptop) 39 instances of this same update, every time Successfully installed (two times today, 17 times on 5th when the laptop was powered on last time, 20 times on 4th:





Both Hyper-V virtual machines show the same update as reason for updates failing, other has installed it "successfully" 11 times, the other over 40 times.

Trying to hide this update (tutorial) does not even show it, yet every time I click Retry to check updates WU shows it is downloading this same update, which then again fails:




Any ideas welcome? How to proceed from here?

 

Upgraded this morning, smoothly installed in just under half an hour.
Sorry to see you have a problem Kari, as for offering help, your knowledge is way above my station.

 

Try first downloading the driver package at ASUS(don't install yet),
then nuke it on your system by uninstalling(Uninstaller: C:\Program Files\Intel\Intel(R) Dynamic Platform & Thermal Framework\Uninstall\setup.exe -uninstall),
then if you have Ccleaner run the registry part and only select the DPTF selections,
then delete the program/installer folder(Path: C:\Program Files\Intel\Intel(R) Dynamic Platform & Thermal Framework\uninstall\x64\Drv64.exe ),
reboot, then install the downloaded DPTF.

Then try Windows update again.

 

You or windows ?

 

Duh....

 

Man - that is a terrible change. I left click start button to get setting, right click to get to control panel. Now I will have this pin a tile for control panel!

 

I have made a new Find on this build guys & gals:

Three new app folders in C:\Windows\SystemApps

• DesktopView_cw5n1h2txyewy
• Holograms_cw5n1h2txyewy
• HolographicViewer_cw5n1h2txyewy

I'm betting this has to do with a question @Edwin had earlier on these new switches:

 

You may be right! *Wink

 

But I can't find Holograms APP.

 

Hmmmmmm???
Will my daughter Leia Organa, be contacting me now?
Maybe she'll make me proud and join the Dark Side*Devil

 

It probably needs to be "turned on or installed" like the UWP File Explorer does.
Maybe our Alien Over Lord Geek @Brink will see this post and find a way.

 

So far this is a good stable build. I have a happy with it.,

Jeff

 

I don't think the App or the Viewer Host will be available until you connect a Holographic device.
