Updating my 2 VMs now!

For those who are into UUPDump, don't expect it to work straight away when a new build is released. It has failed me every time in the past, though works if I use it one week later for same release. Personally I don't even like the tool, though convenient (when it works). I've read through the code and it has a lot of flaws and every time a new release get uploaded, UUPDump requires human intervention to fix the code for a working experience. ...just my 2cents on the topic.

We do know this!

It only failed once before from my experience.

I just like to try it first as much faster.

Sure, nothing wrong with that. :) I just wanted to make sure everybody understands the tool and it's flaws.

It's fast because it pretty much just dumps the files (like the name implies) to your computer without most integrity checks and no System preparation for upgrade.

I get a dump in less than a minute on my 7 years old laptop, which is at least 50x faster than using WU. :-D

It was late last night when I checked for update (after midnight) so I let it sit there until morning. UUP to ISO failed to complete at last step even from windows.old, something's missing.
It updated just fine and very fast, about 5 minutes from restart. It would be even faster if during update all cores/threads were used and more RAM. I have plenty of those resources and it's pity they are not used. Fast SSD reached 100% at times and I could see why some people can have problems and long times with laptop HDDs.
As usual, most of those bug fixes don't apply to my system and still have to compare what's new for other stuff. Just run system scans and sfc found something wrong unable to fix.

You mus have a really fast broadband to get it that quick. I have one of fastest UK packages (72 Mb/s) and it takes around 5-6 minutes.

Upgrade not working, can't create ISO. One of those days...

- down, done and dusted..
- running sweet

I have had about a 75% success rate the 1st try. Sometimes it gets fixed fairly soon, sometimes not so soon. It is another tool in the tool box of Insiders. Always good to have more than one way to get the .iso made.
