    Unable to enable Preview Builds plus two other annoyancies


    I'm an Insider and when Microsoft first offered users to upgrade their PCs to the first build of Windows 10, I signed up and installed the build. Up til a few days ago, I had no issues save for a mysterious condition in which my PC failed to wake from sleep or fully reboot, explained more later. I decided to do a reset and the first time my PC rebooted, it didn't complete so I had to manually power cycle the PC; this happened a few times. Eventually my PC displayed a Welcome page (where you setup the PC before actually using it). The problem was that my mouse (wireless) and keyboard (wired) weren't usable. So I got out my USB stick and did a restore but of course I accidentally picked "Format" so it erased the drive.

    Issues:
    1. The inability to use my keyboard/mouse after a reset is annoying and Microsoft can't help.
    2. Why my PC will not reboot/wake up all the time is also annoying.
    3. I'm no longer able to enable Preview Builds.

    Things I've tried:
    - Verifying the registry (see attachment)
    - Verify the service Background Intelligent Transfer is running
    - Windows Update is set to Automatic but after a reboot, it's never started.

    Any useful help is appreciated.

    :)

    Getting error message" There’s a problem with getting preview builds... Your preview build settings need attention. Go to advanced options to fix this issue"

    Original title: Unable to get Windows 10 preview builds

    I am unable to get the laest windows 10 insider builds. I have enabled the option to get preview builds . But whenever I check the windows update it displays this message.

    "There’s a problem with getting preview builds... Your preview build settings need attention. Go to advanced options to fix this issue."

    I have tried the option "Fix Me" in advanced settings and restarted the computer but the problem still persists.

    Machine was running insider builds until pre 29th july.

    Two weeks before that it was upgraded to the public release.

    Have stayed in the insider program, but no new builds where arriving

    ( slow ring ).
