I wonder how many times they'll have to "test the pipeline" before becoming convinced that it works?...

I guess they're just not convinced that sh*t goes downhill!!!

Just ask any one of us!!!

Well, looks like I'm going to be stuck on 21387 until the next full build drops. I was hoping this update would install, but it gets stuck at 98% just like the base 21390 build.

Odd. When I cleaned up after this CU install, neither the Windows\servicing\LCU folder nor the update folder in it would delete as it usually does. Had to boot with Windows install media and use command prompt to get rid of it.

The pipeline, they won't say, contains in secret Windows 11. Be patient, its next door.

The services setup seems intact, but one is labeled <Failed to Read Description. Error Code: 15100 > .
Sevice name: NPSMSvc_5a4aa > Stopped > manual > start available

Code:

"Version $($Version.ReleaseId) (OS Build $($Version.CurrentBuildNumber).$($Version.UBR))"
Version 2009 (OS Build 21390.1000)

My new friend Winget was not sleeping over:

Code:

winget upgrade --all

It's a sad thing. I would not expect anything until next Wed the 9th and then I won't be anything except new icons, if that. This build was very bad - green screened for no known reason - and I just wiped the drive and installed another version of Windows dev but it attempted to overwrite grub and installed its boot manager of my linux ssd without a bye your leave. Windows 11 had better be something special but expect 1) It won't be called Windows 11 and 2) it won't be special in any way. Can anybody remember the last time they announced improvements to Hyper-V? Neither do I.

I think that was when they introduced version 1 and 2 type VM's.
I don't somehow feel that HYPER-V is particularly high on Ms's radar currently as far as Consumer versions of W10 are concerned.

What would be nice in a future release is for Ms to start removing a load of the diagnostic and metric taking bits in W10 and make it perform nice and slick like W2K19 Server does.

I haven't taken any measurements but it's pretty obvious when running almost any version of W10 on a VM compared with W2K19 server on identical set up and with same VM configuration and hardware W2K19 server leaves W10 right at the starting blocks .

That's not to say W10 is a hideous performer - and shouldn't be compared with slimmed down Linux distros but comparing it against one of its own stable mates (W219K server) gives a more realistic view.

Most people won't be able to mess around with W2k19 server and fiddle around with it to perform as a workstation OS - although a trial version is available -- but you can use W2K22 preview as that is on public trial until october -- that is also a good performer although there's one defect in it that I think is still a major one -- OPENSSH SERVER doesn't install -- a server that doesn't have OPENSSH SERVER working is a bit limited in "Sharing / sending files" to remote computers especially if you use sensible protocols like sftp etc.

Windows Server 2022 Preview build 20292 is available for download


Note current build is 20344. Download the optional features as well.

So will KB5003214 be included in KB5004071 ?

I didn't manually check for updates, but WU just checked by itself and i don't think i have any of these 2 installed.
