Installed in 50 minutes via mini server & ISO. Hate the black File Explorer. Sound recording working again.

If we are ever forced to have that dark theme on explorer I will look for an alternative operating system

2 puters downloading, two sitting on 100% preparing to install
one computer downloading at 48% decided to stop and started preparing to install all over again, oh joy!

This is something I'm keen on getting opinions on... I was under the impression dark themes was the way to go (Office put it in theirs as well) ...but as long as there are options, that's the main thing, right?

Options are good - dark/black theme isn't IMO.

That is not the final design and it's the first version of the dark theme that is implemented (natively), it's normal that it doesn't look good for now, it will improve in the following builds.

It just finished after an hour and a half for me

Please understand the shocked smiley.

My insider build may be a Hyper-V VM, but that VM probably has more horsepower than many of the PCs here.

It has 8

virtual cores, and 8GB RAM, plus the VHD & Virtual Machine are on a second M.2 NVMe SSD.
I expect it to update faster than this, and it has in the past, but for me this upgrade was slooooow.
