Windows 10: Windows developer virtual machines released - December 2016 build

Source: https://blogs.windows.com/buildingap...ber-2016-build

 

Just a note here for people wondering why they might want a free temporary version:

You can us it to go to sites you might not, on your Host(bare metal machine),
or to download software, from a site you're not sure about, like Download(.)com.
And if it comes in a wrapper like OpenCandy, you can extract the installer you want, move it to OneDrive, and after that, delete the machine.
I say do it this way because, you used to be able to snag the installer using 7 Zip,
but some wrappers now are made so you have to click through to get to it, which can be dangerous. After installing in the VM, you can usually find the installer .exe file you wanted in either the install folder(Program Files or Program Files X86, or ProgramData folder, or your User AppData folder.

KB3206632 fails to install daily

Robert

Applies to

Windows Server 2016, Windows 10 Version 1607

Does Mike have Windows Server 2016?

This update fixes an issue that was introduced in the
December 13, 2016 release (KB3206632) in which virtualization-based security (VBS) does not start, and features that rely on VBS, such as Credential Guard and shielded virtual machines (VMs), stop functioning.

If it replaced all installations or attempted installations of KB3206632 why is it not being offered to three computers here?
