Hmm...I don't have it installed, and I'm not seeing it in Windows Update.

Same here, tried the link Brink posted and it just go to my update page.
A new build shows up but it fails to finish downloading.

UPDATE

New version installed and running

Thanks for the heads up Shawn 7 minutes left for the iso

I got the iso and installed it. Took only 15 minutes to disgust me. Netplwiz did not work and I could not toggle the 8.1 start page. I uninstalled it. This thing is a no go.

That's the first thing I noticed. It uses tablet mode now and is not as easy to customize it. I will provide feedback hoping to get the native 8.1 menu back.

Yep no video card driver installed so it was a mess,
0x80070057 windows update error
I enabled local admin to install updates thinking it would at least let me manually check but no go,
Not really sure a real mouse driver ever fully installed either

Doesn't seem to like left handed mouse people

Just switching from fill to fit on wallpaper was a crashing obstacle

Never like the demo :)

Please report back what you find. I decided not to waste my time with it. I will only reinstall it when the 8.1 start page and netplwiz work. I don't see myself signing in every time like a dummy and this ridiculous start menu is no good.

I just did netplwiz and it worked for me. It did show my user pic twice, but it worked.

The first updates after the installation always tale care of missing drivers. I never use AMD drivers to run my 4 monitors since the start of Win 10 Tech Preview. The native drivers work fine.

Before doing a clean install, I tried the "update" method. It took 10x longer to perform upgrade via update than clean installation.

Thanks, that's one down, one to go. When I tried the netplwiz, I always ended up in IE.
