NotePLEASE NOTICE:
Some members are reporting that ISO making process using our UUPtoISO tool fails when trying to create an ISO image of today's Build 16176 upgrade files. I am looking into that all the time, trying to find out why this happens but as all my ISO images are and have been created without issues, the problem I face is to get one ISO making process to fail to get a look "under the hood" to see what happened.
Comical really, I can't study the issue as I would like to and need to because my ISO images are created without issues as this screenshot shows:
Anyway, I will continue to try to find out what's happening.
Notice that being able to make an ISO is not a what being a Windows Insider is about. @Marty, a fellow member failed in making an ISO today and posted this in another thread:
The simple answer is NO, I will not share my ISO images anymore, whatever the reason for you not to be able to make your own is.
A few times (three if I remember correctly) quite a number of our members had issues in getting upgrade and I wanted to share my ISO images to allow them to upgrade. On those occasions, every time, I asked privately from the forums owner and admin @z3r010 if I may share download links on my OneDrive where I had upload those ISO images, giving those members who could not get upgrade an option.
Somehow this was misunderstood and other members started to post links to their own ISO images, the thing getting out of control. The point is, anyone can inject any malware into any ISO image; as a leading Windows forum we cannot go that way. We cannot share something that might or might not be dangerous. We cannot share something that's not official.
Therefore no ISO images will be shared, not now nor in the future. If you need an ISO, download latest official ones released by Microsoft or do your own. If you fail to do it, it's tough, you might need to go one build without an ISO. No begging for ISO download links from unofficial sources will be tolerated as admins have made clear, no sharing unofficial download links.

I am posting this here as directed. I took the plunge and this is the first UUP to ISO I have made. It was successful and I thank you Kari for all your tutorials and advisements on numerous issues. YES, you are correct, this belongs here and not in the other forums.
Created two separate ISO files.
one before the restart, and another after the new build was in, by using windows.old.
both were successful and identical in size.
burnt one to disc for security
Hi Kari,
Suddenly Windows Defender is detecting UUP to ISO as containing a trojan. I realize it's a false positive but I just wanted to let you know in case this has not been mentioned. If this has been noted previously, please disregard.
