    I have read the "New Windows 10 Insider Preview Skip Ahead Build 18237 - September 12" announcement from front to back, copied it to a Word document, searched for both Macrium and Backup, and have found neither. It is like Microsoft has turned a blind eye to this issue that affects all who use Macrium Reflect to back up their computers! What gives, Microsoft?

    To date, @f14tomcat has tested Build 18237 with these results:

    This presents a real problem for me because Macrium Reflect Pro is set to back up both my Version 1803 partition as well as my Skip Ahead partition. What this means is that every backup will fail because Skip Ahead Builds 18234 and 18237 give Error 9; thus, if I should be required to restore from Macrium, the Skip Ahead Build will not restore properly! It will be broken, even if it wasn't before I restored.

    This requires me to modify my Macrium Reflect backup to exclude Skip Ahead Builds in future and rely on Macrium Free (patched) to back up Skip Ahead Builds.

    This is a bunch of hoops Microsoft has created for me, without even acknowledging their error! You can bet your bottom dollar I will be giving feedback for this issue with no fix or acknowledgement forthcoming from Microsoft!

    Has anyone tried making a backup image with Macrium without patching it?

    Hi folks

    this has been done (image with MR from this skippy build WITHIN the skippy build).

    I think some people have had no problems using the patched MR version to restore previous builds (from previous builds).

    I.E in convoluted English -- if you patch MR on the non skippy it will work OK
    Not sure of how robust testing has been done on that.

    All I can say with 100% certainty is that if you run MR FROM the skippy build you can restore an earlier build.

    Also if you create bootable media of MR from skippy build (after patch) it will restore earlier image files.

    Cheers

    This affects only the installation process, I presume. If not, please advise.
    Affected me during the whole process, including download.

    This VM just activated. That 2/3. I am installing Office 365 Insider Preview. Could that be the reason Activation is working? Who knows - don't want to look a gift horrsein the mouth

    Hi folks

    those of you using VMWare WKS might need to re-install

    Defect 3 on my list :

    re-install of VMware fixes it though

    Enough testing for today
