    Windows Update not downloading preview builds


    I was running fast ring builds for windows 10 on another partition, I had been updating this since the original technical preview. I was having some performance problems a couple months ago, so I decided to finally update my old windows 8.1 install to 10, eventually doing a fresh install of it and have left insider previews turned off. With build 14316 being announced, I reactivated insider previews, but windows update is not pulling any builds on either the slow or fast ring. I did notice that both installs are showing on my account when I signed on a few weeks back. Is the second install keeping this install from getting insider builds, and how would I go about fixing it?

    Uninstall latest preview build

    One of the advanced options on Windows Update is to allow installation of Preview builds. The uninstall button seems to appear even if you haven't downloaded any preview builds.

    MS announced that Windows 10 would be the last ever windows, with regular updates (like the old Service Packs). As part of this process they are regularly releasing preview builds for those who are participating. Once they have the bugs out via the preview
    builds the new/modified Windows 10 will be released and updated via Windows update.

    a review of the latest preview build.

    Hi MadCabbit and welcome to Tenforums.

    It can take up to 48 hours for you to see an Insider build come through after switching. I don't think your other install has anything to do with it.
