    I've installed 14965 in Hyper-V. It won't set up Fast or Slow ring. Says not connected to Internet. I am connected to the Internet so I'm guessing a problem with the servers.

    Time for IV Caffeine.
    I always install using a local account, then when on desktop after installation switch to Microsoft account. That way I get my user profile folder named as I want to instead of five letter abbreviation*from my Microsoft account email.

    What you describe happens often to me in Hyper-V if I forget to switch to Microsoft account before trying to opt in and select ring. A fix is to restart, switch Windows user account to Microsoft account, restart again and now the Insider settings should work.

    On rare occasions I've had to make a new local admin account, sign in to it, switch to Microsoft account and use it to get Insider builds. And, of course, if everything else fails then reinstall and switch to Microsoft account before going to Insider settings.

    When done, when Insider ring has been selected, simply switch back to local account if preferred.

    OK. I'm logged in with MS Account. I'll wait a while longer and see what happens. I seem to recall I had a similar problem when I installed a Build direct to my PC. It solved it self after a bit.

    I think I've got a better grasp of the Tutorial now.

    Got that once again earlier tonight when testing clean install with new ISO made according to Part One of this tutorial and then trying to get Insider builds started.

    You can clearly see that Internet connection is OK:

    I got the same thing earlier today as well. Created one VM, and then went to change IP settings and it just sat there spinning. Meanwhile, created a second VM and then went to chagne IP settings in it and it was instantaneous. Went back to first VM, and rebooted and change was instantaneous there, too.

    Both VMs ggot 14986 immedaitely as well.

    If the E: volume labelled Insider is that contains the Windows installation you want to capture, you should be OK :)

    Just out of interested, which ISO are you doing (standard, one with accounts & pre-installed software or one with pre-installed software only)?

    @Kari , I am doing the one with pre-installed programs with account.

    I ran into a problem which I was able to fix (because I know what to do) but some may find it difficult to sort out.

    After 100% completion of saving the image (install.wim), I restarted back to my Insider installation, and this:

    So I ran the Macrium WinPE and fixed the boot issue and it's ok now.

    But when I boot up on my daily 1607 OS, I lost access to my Data drive which contains 2 partitions for Data and Games.

    I had to manually add "authenticated users" to get access back to both partitions:

    Now everything is back to normal but I haven't finished the ISO creation yet.

    You may want to verify if this is an issue with one computer running 2 versions of Windows 10.

    I will have to continue later finishing up the ISO.. :)

    Hi,

    You may want to verify if this is an issue with one computer running 2 versions of Windows 10.
    Oh yeah, that's really confusing to Windows (not just W10) when running two Win installsl inside the same box.
    I avoid that as much as possible but when messed up I install and run Sysinternals subinacl.msi to rese the default authentication permissions.

    Removing the assigned drive letter to the one not in use often helps as well.

    Cheers,
