Has the Media Creation Tool been UPDATED to the Anniversary Release?
Hell All!
I'm new here and I'm already looking forward learning a lot from everyone.
I have 4 computers in my little apartment here and they are all running Windows 10 Build 10586. A couple of these machines are going to have some issues with the new update, so I'm coming here for some advice and help as I go through the process.
I would like to update them all using the Media Creation Tool. That tool will JUST update my Windows 10 installs, right? So my 1st question ... Is the current tool available for download on the Microsoft site the most current build? I had the Tool on a USB flash drive since last September and have used it on several computers ( Mine and others ), and last weekend I downloaded it again on a different flash drive. From what I've read, I'm guessing that it IS the new build, but I've also read that there are some problems with this Anniversary release. Will Microsoft be releasing fixes for some of these Anniversary release problems and will they then be updating the downloadable Tool? Should I wait and download it again in a day or two?
OK, on to my 2nd question ... My main CPU (BigBoyDell) has some real problems with my User Profiles that I can not seem to resolve. I've decided that my best course to fix the current issues is to do a Clean Install from the MCT of this new build. The problem - or situation is that this CPU is Dual Core with (now) 4gig of memory and is capable of running the 64 bit, but it is currently installed with the 32 bit software. It is Activated and has it's digital entitlement. A clean install is suppose to accept that entitlement. But will changing from 32bit to the 64bit foul that up and cause me problems when the dust settles and my baby is ready to walk again? Does anyone have an opinion on this or know for a fact; "That should be NO PROBLEM Roy, go ahead and DO IT!" You know that's what I want to hear.
Anyway ... Thanks in advance for any advice anyone can give me on this. I'll be back real soon with other install questions and problems that I already know I'm facing. You know, sometimes my biggest problem is, I know just enough of what I'm doing to get me into some real trouble. And I'm then glad you are here.
I'll be reading you
