Windows 10: Windows 10 Anniversary Update Available August 2

I seem to recall a recent Friday release, Jeff. Or have I just gone beta crazy?

 

I haven't seen anything yet about the actual logistics of the Anniversary Update, but I'm thinking it won't be forced and can be delayed for a while. If it's rolled out like usual WU updates, I have some friends who will be completely lost with the changes it will make on their systems. They depend on me to do these things and make sure everything is back the way they are used to.

 

I doubt the 29th being a Friday had anything to do with changing the release date to the 2nd. I'm sure MS knew that the 29th was on a Friday before they announced the original release date. Or at least I hope they know how to use a calendar. *Smile

 

Wasn't there a four day bug in the Calendar App? *Eek*chuckle

 

The insider drops have been much faster so the day they come down can be on any day. But, the main builds are likely not to occur on a Mon or Fri.

 

Friday is the 1st of Aug, not the 29th of July, that is today Mr. Bunny. . .*Smile

 

July 29th is a Friday and the 1st of Aug is Monday..

The 2nd of August is Tuesday..;

 

This Friday is the 1st of July not the 29th of July, and that is tomorrow. Mixed up what month it is maybe?

 

Unless the Calendar Printing Company made a huge mistake, July 29 comes on a Friday, Lee. I just had a second and third look, making sure I'm looking at July and that the calendar is for 2016.

 

Did they actually announce that the Anniversary Version would be released on July 29, or did I just assume that would be the day?

 

When I get home and have more time I'll try to find the links to the pages where I read it was the 29th. Even if MS has to extend the release date again I'm OK with that. I don't want MS to release the next version until the feel confident that it's ready.

 

Me too, Winuser, me too! What you said!

I know we all have assumed the release would be on July 29 because Microsoft said Anniversary, but I started to think on it, and wondered if there had actually been a Microsoft announcement. Mostly because, IIRC, Microsoft generally hedges their bets and don't give concrete dates.

 

it´s my day of birth!

 

I can't remember seeing any official saying it was to be released on that date? My memory isn't the best at times though. I've been assuming it would be on or before that date. One last cookie to temp with before the free upgrade ends.

 

I don't recall an official date either. The only thing they were mentioning was the anniversary date and that's July 29th.
