  1. How long will 10166 update to 10240?


    i was just debating migrating my main PC after prepping it (downgrade to win 7 ultimate then upgrade to win 10 build 10166, then let it grab via WU 10240) but from what im seeing now it's not going to be a wise idea,

    how long will it be offered and if the PC itself was activated prior, to the build? (i had a 162 VM Running on the pc in vmware but thats about as far it went.)

    :)

    Occasional MF_E_NO_PMP_HOST error on Nokia 520 and 920

    This error MF_MEDIA_ENGINE_ERR_DECODE: HRESULT – 0xC00D717F seems to go away when updating to a later 8.1 OS build.

    However, on WP Win 10 10166 (Insider Preview), this error
    MF_MEDIA_ENGINE_ERR_DECODE: HRESULT – 0xC00D717F comes back after a long streaming over 4 hours.
