    How to return from Wind 10 build 1511 to 1607 after going back


    Hello. Yesterday I received the last anniversary(?) update from Windows 10. From that moment an expensive program did'nt work anymore. The supplier advised me to press; start - setting - recovery - go back to earlier build.
    That worked and now, instead of build 1607 I'm back to build 1511 and the pogram works again. Now this program will have an update to work under build 1607. How can I return to build 1607? Or will Windows just push it in after some time? Thanks!

    :)

    Can I go back to a previous build of Windows 10 after 40 days?

    Can I go back to a previous build of Windows 10 after 40 days?

    My PC is not able to handle even low graphics games after Build 1607 update. This issue I found out after the rollback time had elapsed.

    GTA San Andreas- Build 1511: 25-30 fps Build 1607: <6 fps

    Asphalt 8 Airborne- Build 1511: 25-30 fps Build 1607: 4-5 fps

    I feel quite dizzy after playing games on my PC for 30 minutes.

    PLEASE HELP.

  3. Windows 10 update

    Do not know if this will help but my PC got the update "pushed" the night before last but thankfully it updated OK (except now I cannot launch Quickbooks but that is another issue). I restored it back to version 1511 to get my quickbooks working again (after
    a failed attempt to get MS support). I then tried to install the build 1607 manually by going to Microsoft and downloading it. It installed perfectly again and quickbooks failed to launch again so I again reverted back to Build 1511.

    What I am getting at is I had all the previous available 1511 updates installed before the 1607 push. Maybe you need to go back to the 1511 build........install all available security, OS, ect......1511 updates untill there are no more and THEN try the
    1607 build. There may be some files in the 1511 updates that are required for the 1607 to load correctly. Maybe?

    How to return from Wind 10 build 1511 to 1607 after going back

    Hello, you can try Windows update manually via Settings, Update. Or just wait.

    You can also apply it manually by downloading the iso or creating a bootable medium (MS media creation tool) (just search or see the guide in the Tutorial section here).

    It is worth keeping a Win 10 bootable medium to hand - it can be useful for certain repairs.

    What "expensive" program? You'll get more help if you explain what you are trying to do rather than be vague. There are many many software packages in the world . Some of them are "expensive" - it is a relative concept - for example Unreal Engine 4 costs $750k

    Anyway you can download 1607 from the MS site and just upgrade if you want by clicking on setup.exe
