Can I use a multi-lang DVD to update single language install?
Finally have my laptop back to where it was with 10240, which was online updated from 7 Pro x64.
I obtained a multi-language iso of 1511 and attempted to use it to do the update but got a clean install, which I had to manually undo by moving everything from Windows.old to replace the new stuff. Booted off a special Win 10 DVD, add .BAK to the new, move the old, reboot. It works! It also doesn't allow the .BAK files and folders to be deleted, reboot from the DVD just to delete them all.
So now, is there a way to make the multi-language ISO UPDATE my 10240 install and leave all my files and apps where they are? If there isn't, is there a way to download just the update installer, onto a different PC, put it on a USB or disc then install it? Or how about an ISO that will update, preferably a real direct link or torrent because I only have a 1.5 meg DSL link.
Due to 10's networking bugginess, I can't run the MCT on the laptop to download the latest Pro/Home x64 single language US English ISO. When I ran it on Windows 7 a couple of days ago it got the 10240 ISO, which did go through all the motions of "updating" but of course still left me with 10240, I'll need to check to see if it 'gifted' me with all the junk bloatware I'd removed.
