Interesting.

 

Having problems upgrading the physical machine. At least one of the error messages involved not having enough disk space.
With 28 GB free and only 67% of the disk used this is ridiculous. I made an ISO from a VM install and am debating a clean install. Very irritating.

 

This is why suggested a switch to bypass the creation of the windows.old creation.

There is plenty of free space.

Volume in drive C is Windows 10 IP Build 16353 Serial number is 5afa:3961 85,349,371,904 bytes total disk space 57,289,617,408 bytes used 28,059,754,496 bytes free 67.1 % in use

 

OK. Clean install of 16362. I wish somebody from Microsoft could explain why they must want to save a copy of the old build when I (and I assume I'm not alone) will just run disk cleanup immediately anyway. Anyway the install went perfectly and I like the feel of the build. The graphics card was even updated during the install itself - that's a first.

 

in case of failed install, need windows.old to restore to previous version.

 

May have no bearing on your particular situation, but.....

28GB free, the Windows.old is ~ 25-26GB, thereabouts, plus misc work space. And....the stupid system still wants to create a 12+gb Hiberfil.sys , which I promptly turn off! After the update. Math don't work out!

 

Ah. So it created a hiberfil.sys even though one of the first things I do is run powercfg /h off. This installation program is even stupider than I thought. Just ran that command on the new installation of 16362. I'm ready to do any testing on a setup.exe that includes the option to turn off creation of windows.old and/or hiberfil.sys. This program probably still has code from Windows 95

 

- 16362 is outstanding.. running perfectly here..
- MS are gonna have to go some to top this build..*Cool

Yes 16362 is running well. Of one of the first things I do is install Firefox Nightly (will be FF 57 - you should checkout NIghtly if you haven't already - my default browser) and Chrome Canary (also superior to Edge IMHO)

 

Something new in this build, a third option in the rings: "Send me early updates" and if that option is chosen below appears: "Release Preview":
Edit: apparently is an option for those who are in rs3_release, soon they will be able to choose Release Preview and in Skip Ahead it could simply be a bug.

 

Running Fine
had to rollback Realtek PCI Family Controller Flight to without the Flight
same happened in last two builds

 

Oh DRATS! Lost Sleep mode. Have Hibernate, but no Sleep listed even in advance settings. Will write it up. Any suggestions? I am pretty sure it was there after the install last night, not there now.
Tks

 

This is all I got right now:
