I have bought twp additional year's warranty so am covered.

Got my lappy back last night. Not bad in on the 23rd and back on the 26th night. They had to get the disk from Delhi. The dealer got it bare, uninstalled, so I had some fun getting it going. Initially the disk would not show up. I booted Mint from the USB drive, and was only seeing the 8GB SSD with the content pre-crash. While on the boot it was seeing the Mint USB it was not seeing the Windows Installed Pen. While fooling around in Mint I suddenly found the 'lost' drive. So mounted it, enabled it, and formatted. Not much luck with the bootloader, so I set the two boot parameters to Legacy, lo and behold the USB showed up as a boot option and then things proceeded happily from there. Took me the better part of five hour to be up and running. Having been spoilt by Partititon Magic, I find the Windows Partition manager prehistoric. So I loaded EaseUS and made the two additional partitions E: and F: for Work and Archive. This left about 130GB free. I will install AOMEI One KeyRecovery after the initial configuration, and create a Boot Partition. This should take about 45GB, the rest I may leave for Linux, if I decide to start fooling about with it once again. Let us see.

I have run out of bandwidth on my net connection, so am asking my ISP for a premature renewal tomorrow.

Downloading right now from Techbench gives 1511 same as MCT for me.

Attachment 55626

Both are the same 10586.0 release and neither include subsequent patches.

Both MCT and Techbench remained on unpatched 10240 until 1511 was released. They then both went to 1511, back to the original 10240 for one weekend and back to 1511 again. I think they are always pretty much in sync.

Well, on 24th December I downloaded an ISO file (French version, though) and got Build 10240; on the same day, getting the ISO file through MCT gave me Build 10586.0.
From what you mentioned, I guess that only (?) the ISO files "english version" are updated ...

With a word with the Forum Owner of Microsoft Answers(the topmost authority), he said that Techbench isn't kept as up-to-date as Media creation Tool is.There Techbench is recommended if MCT throws some error

Yes, that's also what I read somewhere else : first place to get the latest ISO file is through MCT and if this one messes around for some reason, then you have to go to TechBench ...

Hi,

The English language versions get priority then come the other language versions. No idea how or if these are prioritized though.

After the Techbench version grabs updates before it starts installing, there probably isn't much difference. I used a DVD made from the Techbench ISO to upgrade a friend's laptop from 8.1 to 10 on Christmas Eve and there was only 1 update available via WU after I finished.
