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

Finally installed and working, Failed twice but that's most probably because of BIOS problem, it just wouldn't BOOT properly at first shot. Once that was fixed by changing places of RAM to B channel update from ISO worked and here we are.

 

Install went fine for me, other that it took a loooong time on Working on Updates at 84%. I've been using it all day without any hiccups except that one of my programs, Nitro Pro 11, (PDF) has lost its activation, again. This has occurred with the last 3 builds. Nitro has allowed me to re-activate, on the last 2 builds. Still waiting for their response on this one.

 

Need to find out if the following problem has been caused by upgrading my GPU...if someone can test this it would be appreciated.

Opening Edge browser and choosing an article which is centrally located on screen, then click on Reading View, reverting back makes the article reduce in size and veer to the left....the more times you repeat this the further left the original article appears.....see attachments.

 

This does not happen on my system.

 

Seems OK to me. I'm running 17046 in VirtualBox, I can go in and out of reading mode in an HTG article with no problems.

 

Trying to make ISO from 2/3 VMs. The third has too little disk space and was trashed. One is from windows.old which looks to work as well as the one before reboot - but it is a very slow process in a VM.

 

@Eagle51 - That worked fine. Created a complex folder name, Insider (*Smile), in the same dump folder. Cut/paste to it, and copied path for UUPtoISO. Thanks!

 

Upgraded on my 2 VMs. Nothing out of the ordinary to report.

 

My thanks to Joanne and Kado for responding to my post.

 

Are you using Hyper-V. If so, all you need to do is attach vhd as a drive in Host, and run uuptoiso from Host - much faster than running uuptoiso in VM

Also, temporarily tuning off defender speeds things up.

Finally, have you tried the new uup dump method. You can download uup files from MS direct and it is very fast. See a video I created.

Microsoft OneDrive - Access files anywhere. Create docs with free Office Online.

 

Why disable Windows Defender each time you run UUPtoISO when you can configure it to exclude the UUP folder and all related processes?

...just a thought ;-)
