Windows 10: Announcing Windows 10 Insider Preview Skip Ahead Build 17639 - April 4

I will see in a few.

 

Did you run the update.cmd first?

 

Yup

 

Downloading now. Surprised. Looking for SCU instead of skippy!

 

Weird. I had no issues, created Finnish, Swedish and UK English x64 ISOs already.

 

Tried UK English. No luck.

 

I caught this update before it has any chance of pre downloading so I was able to chronicle the time taken.
Bottom line 28 minutes start to finish the update.
2:35 Checked update
2:36 Preparing to install (1-100%)
2:38 Downloading (1-100%) Task Manager showing a download speed of approx 170-180Mbps with an occasional 3-4Mbps uploads to other computers on the web.
2:41 Installing (1-100%)
2:55 100%
2:56 Restart
3:02 Hi shows on screen
3:03 Full boot into windows.
I have 25-30MBps internet connection, 2700K Kaby Lake CPU OC to 4.9GHz, Samsung NVME 950 Pro? SSD.

 

Preparing to install. ...

 

No Issues here for En-US, AMD64 and all editions. About to use the .ISO to upgrade.

Trying en-gb now - same as above, amd64 and all editions - no issues.

 

If you continue to have issues, let me kn0w, as I already have the files DLd and the .ISO is being made, I can share it to you.

 

Installing now. Time to re-install uuptoiso.

 

I noticed that in Windows 10 build 17639, blocked files now have a Windows Defender Application Guard overlay on their icon like below to indicate it's a blocked file.

EDIT: It appears you will need to have Windows Defender Application Guard turned on to see it.

Well, this was one of longest ever update. Worst part was download, it kept on cutting off, one moment 20Mbps and than falling to 0. Hope it wasn't because of CloudFlare DNS ! Anyway, once I made iso it all finished in 5 minutes.

 

Download completed in 10 minutes from restart to screen. Made an iso before restart. Did WU instead of Dump. Too busy with too many other personal things going on in my life.

 

I am apparently never getting Sets. Since it was widely released in Skip Ahead builds, I've never had it and there's still no option for it in Multitasking settings. Doesn't matter if I upgrade via WU or by ISO, still not there.
