Windows 10: Announcing Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 15007 for PC and Mobile

AOK on the phone here, also..
the PC update is in and settled..

- magic! *Party

 

I finally got build 15007 installed and running. This time I unplugged my HDD so the boot loader wouldn't get corrupted. Everything is back together and both installs boot OK. now to play. *Smile

 

How long were you stuck at downloading 100%?I was at stuck at that step for like 1 hour+ and then gave up, restarted my computer and computer decides to redownload the update. I will try to install this build later tonight or tomorrow. 15002 didn't have this problem when I was downloading it, must be the buggy mess that is 15002. Ah well, IP after all!

 

15002 will not open Edge. It scatters my desktop icons.
15007 opens Edge but will not open this forum. Takes forever to open windows 7 forums.
15xxx series s**ks. Going back to 14986.

 

I'm not going to jump through a bunch of hoops to get this build to install. That's Microsoft's job.

 

you could knit a pair of socks waiting for the thing to complete..

- but hey, socks are cool - right?*Redface

 

I didn't time it but it did take a long time. The first try got to 100% and just stopped. I had to restart to get it started again. IMHO UUP is not ready and MS should have stayed with the ESD. UUP is to slow and very unpredictable. I also found that my WiFi got set to metered. I don't know why or how but on my second attempt I got a warning about my connection being metered.

 

It seems that the new UUP is working just the opposite of the way it's supposed to work. Longer to download and longer to install. And that's only if your lucky.

 

The next build I'm going to hit the download button then take my wife out to dinner and a movie. Maybe it will be downloaded by the time we get back.

 

Mine sat at 0% downloaded for a long time, so I shut down, unplugged and waited at least 15 minutes. Rebooted (takes two tries with 150002) and it was at the same spot when I clicked on update & security. Now it's decided to check for updates, so we'll see what happens next, if anything.

Ah, if found that "updates are available", so the fun starts again.

 

Grab yourself a cup of coffee. It's going to be awhile. *Smile

 

I saw Brink's announcement 12 minutes after he posted and have been trying to do this ever since.

I'm now at 29% downloaded, so maybe this time? I think I'll get my book and read while this mess does its thing . . . make that maybe it'll install.

Edit: 67% downloaded.

 

I prefer the old way. It worked! *Smile

 

Yep, that's what I said earlier. This isn't working at all like it should!

I'm finally at "Preparing to install" 25%!

 

Here we go again. Three builds in one day. Two for my phone and one for my PC. *Smile
