Windows 10: Announcing Windows 10 Insider Preview Fast+Skip Build 17046 for PC

Is that the process from Levo? Getting the ESD files direct from MS servers?

 

Basically we download necessary files to create an iso without actually needing to download them via the normal Fast Ring upgrade. The files are downloaded about as fast as they can possibly be downloaded with this method. I go from starting to dowload uup files to starting to create iso in about 6 minutes!

 

Direct from MS afaik.

Actually, I was trying to find the post from Levo (can't remember whole ID) that was first posted on the 17040 thread, then many, many posts with it making mods and changes and everything.

I don't think it's a tutorial here.

 

Announcing Windows 10 Insider Fast+Skip Ahead Build 17040 for PC

 

Thank you!! That's the one! You must have had it bookmarked! *Wink

 

Nope...just remembered it was on Page 13 of that post. *Smile

 

I would like to upvote this post!!!

 

I and anybody outside the Americas would definitely not be so happy as many of us are already inconvenienced. For us in UK, even later would be really bad!

In fact, I believe personally all releases should be at Midday on UTC zone 0 (GMT/BST in UK) as that would be fairest for all nations *chuckle!

 

Ugggh - just clean installed 17046, and got usual tranche of tiles - candy crush etc.

Then one caught my eye - winzip universal Interesting I thought - but no way!

An annual lease for this when you can get 7 zip free!

 

One more question, please. No problem getting all the files downloaded @92MB/s. about 6 minutes. Now what do I do with them? The UUPtoISO tut doesn't seem to like them.

 

Hey f14tomcat,
The first time I tried UUPtoISO, I used the folder that UUP Dump created .., Windows 10 Insider Preview 17046.1000 (rs_prerelease) ... and UUPtoISO didn't like it. I created a new folder (shorter, no spaces, etc) and copied the files (.esd, .cab, etc) over to new folder and it worked.

 

I'll give that a go....

 

After changing the size of the Start menu and the tiles several times, my Start menu was completely blocked, it does not open in any way, I used several solutions and tutorials that I found, including this Start Menu Troubleshooter, but nothing worked, I decided to go back to the previous version and for some reason the problem was moved to the previous build, finally I had to use one of the images of the system, I will reinstall this build with the ISO and I hope not to have the same problem again.
