    I haven't seen the nag box yet (touch wood). It must be a carry-over from the luckiness I experienced with never seeing the altered Settings page, too....

    I know I'm very late to the game but finally I did use UUPDUMP to create the ISO I'm a convert.

    Just an update, not having any luck with the NAG screen on boot up, I have action all of the suggestions thinking it would eliminate it but, no luck, there at ever cold boot. Thanks to all who have contributed.

    Here's a thought.

    Now Skip Ahead is a year ahead of Fast Ring, how do you ever leave Skip Ahead?
    Presumably when 19h1 gets released, Fast moves to 19h2. Will Skip ahead stay on 20h1 until Fast catches up, or will Skip always move in sync with Fast (which makes more sense) but that means once, on Skip Ahead, it is "Hotel California" i.e. you can never leave?

    I would suppose you could always do a clean install of a Fast ring build. I guess we'll find out an answer to your question when the first builds of 19H2 appear.

    Hi there

    If (and Only if) -- sounds like a Maths theorem !! you backup standard system before ever joining any of these rings and install via UUPDUMP then restoring previous system again (not via windows.old) but say a macrium image restore leaves you as before totally outside the program.

    Bit late if you are already in but for those thinking of joining but don't want to this is a good way to get the new builds.
    I use this method to get all the builds fast / slow -- installing from the base standard Windows release. This way I can test all of them -- although under the EULA you aren't meant to do this concurrently as you are only legally licensed for 1 Copy of Windows on a computer whether or not that version of Windows is running as a Virtual Machine.

    The digital license preserves activation on each build you install - so no probs testing different versions -- start with standard release and go from there. Keep backups as well

    Cheers

    Just reading through here, and trying to compare the two, I'm not seeing the real benefit of being on Skippy over fast ring. I have two installations of fast, and was thinking about changing one of them over to skippy, but was wondering what would make all that work worth it? So for those on here who run both, what exactly are the "real world" benefits this build has that fast ring doesn't??? Thanks.

    Several folks have asked, so I'll share to everyone: there will not be a SkipAhead flight this week.
