Same problems here with macrium and the task manager, fortunately you can resize the task manager from the context menu of the titlebar, you just have to choose the "Size" option.

I've also noticed that when you click on File, Options or View, nothing happens, at least in my case, and speaking of the task manager, in this build the arrows have started to "flicker", just like in the Fast ring, in the previous build of Skip Ahead this didn't happen, it is not yet known if that is a bug or a new "feature"...

I just tried that, Leo, and once I clicked on size, I could size it from anywhere. After closing it, I reopened it and didn't have to choose the "Size" option a second time.

Nice catch!

Edit: I also clicked on less detail and could even resize that window!

Macrium worked without any problems over here. It has created all the backups it was supposed to. I opened each one of them and all seems good.

hmmm...wether it's worth upgrading or not... Nothing interesting for me and my hardware to test. MS seems to be really pushing this Inking thingie.

I guess I will need a device with pen support pretty soon. I do use a Samsung Galaxy Note 8, so inking is something I do very often anyways. Not that sure however if it's worth it in a laptop formfactor as the inking angle would strain my wrist. I guess I need a Thinkpad X1 Yoga or a Surface branded device.

Macrium & Task Manager issues here too...but I'm happy to pause backups as I can always go back to to the previous versions when I wish. Hopefully a new version will be out within a week or two.

Huston I have problem. Normal update failed with unknown "Driver error", after installing from ISO now I get this again although it's fully updated

Still contemplating if I should let it do it or if there's other way to fix it. Registry fix maybe ? Going to make a backup anyway.
Edit,
Macrium Reflect is not working properly. Just tried making a full backup and it didn't backup almost anything, Just Restore partition.

EaseUS Todo Backup Free works with this build, so, using that for now

I think the build has been released with some bug bugs...would have better to wait to get it right.

Even bugs have bugs !!!

Well I don't get it... why are Skip builds being released during GA month?... surely this (and next month) should be dedicated to getting RTM ready and stable? Both from a dev. and Insider point of view...

19H1 is distracting now and can wait... IMHO.

Aren't those different teams or at least partly ?
