Whoa! This one took over THREE HOURS to download, initialize and install on my Dell Venue Pro 11 7139 (i5 4210Y CPU, 8 GB RAM, 256 GB SSD, HD3000? GPU). That's more than three times longer than it ever took for the prior round of Insider Preview flights for Win10 Pro. Wonder what's up here? Anybody know?
Thanks,

Welcome to my world! Not a single upgrade under 3.5 hours since December 2016 when Microsoft switched from ESD to UUP. Fastest UUP upgrade 3.5 hours, usuallly between 4 and 6 hours.

Just count the time I've spent with these upgrades, with three editions and four languages.

Update times taken.....last flight 40 minutes....this flight 45 minutes....on an i7 desktop with an SSD.
Why others have taken so long....not a clue.....my sympathies.

I guess later they will implement a toggle equal to the one in Chrome.

On Home page, it is already similar to toggle (Show bar / hide bar). On other pages one can't click to "show bar", can only hide it

Is this in VMs or on host. I find upgrading on vms are much slower than on hosts.

It normally takes about an hour on Host but 2-3 hrs on vms.

Same times on host and virtual machines. And, please notice: I am talking about time required to get "Restart now" button shown. It then takes another 1.5 to 3 hours to restart.

On this host, the longest one took almost 8 hours total, that was in October. Laptop took last night just over 4 hours to show Restart now, then restart just under two and a half hours.

Based on the Feedback Hub app this build seems to have massive issues involving audio devices and just audio in general. Many people reporting their webcam is not at all shown in the system (with wrong driver error appearing in the control panel). Firefox audio is not working, users reporting DFX, Audacity and, at least in some cases, even audio boards like Audigy RX 5 (mine) completely absent on the system. I, personally, have issues with my audio board, my webcam and my DTT USB pen that I use to watch tv. Other people have experienced issues like those, by chance?

At this moment, in Edge, the toggle that is in Settings works the same as the toggle of Chrome, if you enable it, the favorites bar is shown in all the pages and if you disable it, that bar is only shown in the home page, I don't know why I thought that in Chrome there were two different toggles, but in reality there is only one.

This is me on my old lappy. On the newer tablet, it takes about 50 mins to complete the entire process.

downloaded and installed no bother but bluetooth driver error code 43. tried uninstalling it but came back with same problem. tried a an update from intel but that work either.

Likewise with my Centrino wireless. Code 43 on the Bluetooth which is annoying because I use a bluetooth speaker.
