  1. Fresh install of W10Pro wouldn't upgrade - Found a fix


    Ok, so first mistake was not using an up to date USB image to create the machine. This being a Lenovo M900 Tiny that was being re-purposed for a new setup. I had a Win10Pro x64 installer setup on a USB stick and figured, ah, what the heck, let's just use that. Not the right choice but I could see others making this same mistake.It started with 20H2. Everything seemed to go OK until it hit KB50001716 and threw error 0x80070643. The update history said it successfully installed it, but then also said it failed doing what looks like trying to install it again.Looooong story short, I fixed it

    :)

  2. Now wouldn´t that b a cool feature...

    Hi,



    I just read an article in the new Linux magazine on the use of Ramdisks. Using those as a file system can drastically speed up read and write performance. That would be a cool feature to build in the OS of mobile phones that hold a memory card anyway, wouldn´t
    it. Then saving a large Excel sheet wouldn´t take ages as it does now (on my E61 anyway), but just a few seconds...

    Regards,

    download here - can upgrade 10122 -> 10162... NOT fresh install?

    download here - can upgrade 10122 -> 10162... NOT fresh install?

    Same applies to W10pro official release >>> can download ISO - burn DVD - and upgrade... either W10pro preview or W8.1?
