    Brink, I downloaded the Media Creation tool but it wouldn't run. This happens periodically with any of my installation files, but they run again when I restart. If I restart then Windows will start to install (or configure) the update to Build 17063. What should I do?

    You can go ahead and restart, and then try the repair install if it wasn't successful updating to 17063.

    Brink, I downloaded the Media Creation Tool and downloaded the iso file for Build 16299. I burned that to a dvd using Imgburn and then ran setup exe. Insider Preview Build 17063 is awaiting restart. I clicked restart now, but I am just seeing the spinning dots, and my PC has not restarted. What can I do about it?

    If it doesn't restart in about 5 minutes or so, go ahead and press the restart button on the case to do a hard restart.

    Brink, yet again after my PC finally restarted the update to Build 17063 failed at the working on the update stage, and my PC was restored to Build 16299, which is earlier than the Build I had before the clean install. You will understand how fed up I am.

    I can understand.

    The key is to be able to create an ISO for 17063 when it's ready to restart, but doing so before. You don't actually want to restart since it will just fail.

    If successful in creating the 17063 ISO, you would then create a bootable USB from the ISO, boot from the USB, and clean install 17063.

    If not successful, then you could try cleaning the newest build you have, and try updating again.

    It would normally need to be created using the method below when 17063 is ready to restart from Windows Update. Just don't restart though.

    *Arrow UUP to ISO - Create Bootable ISO from Windows 10 Build Upgrade Files Installation Upgrade Tutorials


    However to save you some trouble, here's a link to download an official W10 17063 Pro ISO directly from my OneDrive. Let me know when you have finished downloading it to make sure it's still available for you. The link will become unavailable later. *Smile

    *Arrow (3.75 GB) ** Link removed **

    When finished downloading the ISO, create a bootable USB with the ISO (ex: using Rufus), boot from the USB, and clean install 17063. Be sure to back up anything that you do not want to lose first though.
