QUOTE(Kaka23 @ Apr 1 2015, 03:23 PM) So you prefer this built of Win 10 to Win 8.1? for now, i cannot compare 10 tp to 8.1. there are still plenty of bugs here and there in 10. it's just too early to tell.   overall, i'm fine with 10. to me it's like MS is streamlining and simplifying everything. |

QUOTE(Variants @ Apr 2 2015, 05:57 PM) maybe i should wait till it stable? or join the wagon? If you wanna use it as main os, i suggest don't, although it's stable for common uaage. Tech previews are not meant for production use anyway. It's just feature showcase, and a tool to collect usage data mainly. As of now i mainly use it to check software compatibilities only. You can always try this thing as vm. |

QUOTE(yokoloco @ Apr 3 2015, 11:53 AM) Any expected time frame for Windows 10 release? it's said to be around September this year. QUOTE(Kaka23 @ Apr 3 2015, 12:34 PM) I am trying to update to the lastest built 10049. But always facing error when download and trying to installing. what's the error message? I didn't apply the update downloaded from windows update. it detected that I run the os in vm so it didn't let the update run. so I copied the .esd and did fresh install from scratch.Anybody facing this? |

QUOTE(Kaka23 @ Apr 3 2015, 07:22 PM) I cant remember what is the error message.. oh. nevermind What is .esd file?  .esd is the encrypted installer file. you can decrypt it with tools into standard .wim, then use imagex to dump its contents into a blank partition/virtual disk. then you can use bootcd to add the virtual disk into boot menu. |

QUOTE(Kaka23 @ Apr 13 2015, 01:21 PM) Anybody feel built 10041 is very very buggy? Always hang page and press start button nothing will happen.. worked fine here previously. upgraded to 10056 days ago.
the obvious: the power button finally moved close to start button. |

QUOTE(Kaka23 @ Apr 15 2015, 02:09 PM) cool.. actually i don't do upgrade via windows updates. i use w8.1 pro's built-in vm feature for testing. the upgrade will not run when it detects that the os is a vm. how you upgrade to 10056? I always press update button and there is no 10056 download also i downloaded the untouched iso here, extract install.wim from the iso, then use imagex to dump the contents of that install.wim into a virtual disk. |

QUOTE(Kaka23 @ Apr 15 2015, 03:06 PM) thanks bro... no problem. just note that this is not the official public build, so it might contain more bugs. there were some buggy unofficial builds that i have skipped because of reported problems. |

QUOTE(zellleonhart @ Apr 16 2015, 11:59 AM) Upgraded to 10056 from 10051, pressing the apps (non metro apps) in start menu doesn't launch, only launches when search about it. Hmm no such issues here. i have installed several desktop software and run them via start menu (click on 'all apps', then navigate and click on the software icon) i did a fresh install instead of upgrades.what i found out was spartan at this stage is really terrible to navigate. it can stop responding in one tab (no response to mouse clicks), but if you quickly click on another tab and back to it, everything is fine again. |

QUOTE(zellleonhart @ Apr 16 2015, 02:47 PM) I think the upgrade produced some problems, I cannot run any desktop softwares via start menu (it comes out nothing) unless I type in the search bar and start from there. yeah i think so. i am not sure why their upgrade path still screw up after all these years. (maybe they put very few efforts evaluating it hehe)Wait for next month's update then I'll start fresh. |

QUOTE(aliesterfiend @ Apr 17 2015, 04:05 PM) My win/start button does not work at all and the search bar also did not work. Since it's my principally gaming pc and I'm using the build to check what games work and what not I made it the main OS. never use a tech preview as main os :/ we all know it's full of bugs. using it as main os means your chances of stepping into one of them are much higher, and not many know how to fix it. (especially for gaming, even official windows versions we have crashes here and there, due to various reasons. I don't expect them to work fine magically in previews at this stage)Any known fix ? Some guy suggested that only a clean reinstall can fix it. there is no guarantee that it will work, but you can try this: http://microsoft-news.com/facing-issues-wi...ng-these-steps/ |

QUOTE(aliesterfiend @ Apr 17 2015, 05:54 PM) I know but I'm listing which games work and which not and since there's nothing else really important I do with the pc then why not. haha ok just do your thing then One thing for sure until now I can't run Shogun 2, Rome Total War (haven't tested Medieval 2 though), Mount and Blade Warband and X-COM doesn't work for me. Luckily Skyrim, Rome II and Attila works fine. I think my build is 10049 iirc. It works fine before but then yesterday when my kid was watching youtube my wife told me that suddenly the monitor went blank with 'no signal' or something and I thought maybe my GPU fried again. However when I got home and replugged everything everything works fine, except that windows start button. Cause me a bit of a problem though since I'm just the one who don't like having icons on desktop. same here haha! i only have the recycle icon on my desktop. to access stuff i usually start with win key combo lol i have read that after 10056 there are recent builds with huge jumps in build number. maybe there will be something worth to test after two weeks. |

QUOTE(khairy4pm @ Apr 18 2015, 11:09 AM) I find v10041 in need of several improvements still. i find every build needs improvements lola heads-up: always keep the previews as updated as possible. old builds will fail to boot by the time it expired. (source) |

Hmm thanks stasio. downloading the esd for the second time because the first one didn't decrypt :/zellleonhart, check out the very first point in the bug list link posted by stasio. sounded familiar? i think i didn't get this because i used the x64 version of desktop apps. edit: this one is good. decrypting  you have found the x64 iso nice! i am doing wim dump so esd is good.

This 10061 build is buggy. It's better to run as vm fresh install only. (e.g. Settings can disappear in the middle of windows updates haha)
To cut the installation short, always do it offline. |

QUOTE(Kaka23 @ Apr 29 2015, 09:24 PM) wahlao.. I am just using 10061 today and you are already looking at 10074!!! No i have good net so it's faster to grab stuff. 10074 build has duplicates in settings haha! Later i show it here lol!Spartan is somewhere in there.. I use Cortana to search for it! I didnt recall doing anything on it earlier, just hilang from the taskbar after upgrade. QUOTE(M1X @ Apr 29 2015, 09:37 PM) Uh oh~ Oh that's terrible :/ It looks like nvidia has better supports. Btw for testing it's better to use vm.- install via SSD/HHD trick (I ran out of DVD, last one left ), caused my W7 boot option gone...- finish install W10, 7 minutes or so via SSD partition - BIIIIIIIIIIING~~~~!! explorer error greet me lmao~! - often explorer crash - windows don't recognize my R9 280x despite latest driver...  gonna try again. |
