Took 30 minutes for me. Give or take 5.

 

Up! *Cool

 

I have a brand new laptop with a Core i7 and 12 GBs of memory and after waiting 2 hours for it to install I decided to go to bed and check it in the morning. I don't know how long it took but it installed and was ready when I got up. Another problem I had was that the HDD was at 100% and my laptop was unusable until the install got to around 72%.

 

Me too, except on real hardware.

 

"Updated" from Windows Skippy to Windows 16278. Here's where I am on the Slow Ring. One thing that doesn't make sense - the setup program still created windows.old even though I told it to save nothing. Must be something that is deeply ingrained that they don't want to mess with. They should - especially for the Insider Program. So I'll be running Disk Cleanup while the upgrade to build 16288.1 continues.



PS. Windows.old (which of course being that it was build 16362 with a few programs added I could never get back to) was 16.4GB.

Something needs to be done about windows.old BEFORE it is created. The process is already at 85% downloading and moving fast. Note that Windows Defender and Malicious Software Removal will both be installed along with the new build which has now finished. All are awaiting install.

 

Way too late for me to start this.

 

It's late, but I'm in. Already downloading.

 

Me too - I'll let if finish overnight - make the iso - reboot and have 16294 for breakfast - *Wink

 

I wonder who took the dare to push the release button so late ?

 

I would say the final say comes from Dona. This install is moving right along.

 

Especially after Dona tweeted 5 hours ago that there wouldn't be any new builds today.
