Windows 10: Announcing Windows 10 Insider Preview Slow Build 17074.1002 - Jan. 11

Display adapter properties doesn't appear in this build:



At least in my case.

 

I had no idea anyone else here even knew Hindi lol....

Odd indeed.....I wonder if newer machines are getting patched while us older ones are being left out in the cold?

Lol - I hate those "Well, let's reboot it and see what happens, and if it happens again, reboot it again to make sure before we panic" moments....specifically because 99 times out of 100 it fixes itself after that fateful second reboot....

Good luck!

 

Hmm. Nor here either. Did they port that elsewhere I wonder? Don't know why they would.

 

I don't. Translator app does, though. Needed to test it. *Wink

Nah. It finally went into the install phase. 62%. Slow, but sure.

 

Oh, oh, oh!

I went looking for it, and didn't see it, so I then searched for display, and it gave me the same display setting that you see - so I used the link on the right hand side which said "Sleep is better" and had a link on how to see what had changed - and Sets kicked in and opened a new tab from the Settings window to show me this link: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/...for-night-time

Yes, I know, doesn't answer your question - but your question got me playing with Sets in a way I never expected to.

Of course, this only lasts until I make Browser Chooser 2 my default app for URLs and links again......

 

Lol - oh. *Banghead

 

OK, so found a bug:

Settings --> System --> Sound --> Other Sound Options (App volume and device preferences) leads to a new page where you can pay with settings - but the reset button at the bottom is not working for me....

Also, when using Sets, I have taskbar item of both (right now, with Sets, I have Settings open and a Sets tab of Edge open - and they show independently in my taskbar as running apps - nice feature...

Also, from Known issues of this build:

• Certain devices may hang on the boot screen after upgrading. If this happens to you, go into the BIOS and disable virtualization.

Not cool at all.

 

Yes, that is a problem for me, you can see clearly in the images that I put in this comment:

Announcing Windows 10 Insider Preview Fast+Skip Build 17063 for PC

It should show only one item in the taskbar that says something like "Sets", I don't like to combine the buttons in the taskbar, I have that option set to "Never"

 

Oracle Virtualbox (test build for linux) Windows 10 VM completed but when running uuptoiso got stuck here



Then it went into "guru meditation" and the VM closed. However, I will run disk cleanup with this VM (maybe even reset it). Another VMware VM is rebooting without my trying to create the ISO. We will see but the experiences seem somewhat hopeful.

 

Same hear with the volume reset bug. Doesn't work. That section/page is new to Settings I believe, yes?

Had a weird freeze. Had an Excel & Word files open plus Edge. Opened Mail app and a few tabs. Noticed that it didn't retain my "Frequent destinations". Navigated (tabbed) to the Settings gear there. It highlighted with a box, but Enter key didn't do squat. Clicked on it, clicked on All settings, Set to default, navigated back, and everything froze. Couldn't Alt/Tab to anything else. Tried closing tabs and Mail > Nada. Ctrl/Shift/Tab to open DM. Closed everything out, then a Ctrl/Alt/Delete to get to the power button to restart.

Anywho, all seems fine now after reboot.

Edge F4 history works again. Timeline works ok. Start screen seems to be fine. Hopefully I don't get the freezing again.

The Acer has finally reached restart and is chugging along.

Do you think this could be why I'm having these issues? My audio card and cam are not working cause I get a code 39 error.

 

UUPtoISO window pauses there for quite some time, but busy doing something until it takes off again.

 

Well, I'm copying the Virtualbox VM from my Windows storage and will try the thing again. Meantime I'm getting close to my main Windows 10 VM finishing - it's on 77% installing. I've created ISO's on this VM before and have the command program open waiting for the link to the esd folder. Hopefully, I will get to do this before I sleep. The other VM should be ready when I wake but given the above problems, I may not like what I'm getting.

 

Ah well that was a disaster. It was late so left it running. Woke up this morning to a GSOD. A restart sat preparing for ages and eventually took me to a black unresponsive desktop with the message Unable to Locate your Desktop. Restart from that rolled back to 17063, For the moment I've hidden the update.

 

Woke up as usual at 6am this morning but did't check for updates until 7am as I lost hope last night. Now it's downloaded and awaiting install but as I didn't make usual preparations in time I have to do that first before letting it install, MR backup and system cleanup. Than I make ISO and bootable USB.
