    Is one bug blocking the roll out of the next Windows 10 Technical Prev


    Posted: 11 Mar 2015

    It has been 47 days since the last Technical Preview of Windows 10 dropped, and at that time Microsoft pledged to speed up the slow preview testing process that occurred between build 9879 and 9926 for future builds, which basically means we won't be expected to wait almost two and a half months between builds anymore.

    So far, we haven't seen much of that materialize, despite image leaks of newer builds and lots of information on what we can expect from a newer build, among them being able to test Project Spartan in an either experimental, or somewhat more polished state, for now it's pretty much all guesswork.
    However, Gabe Aul took to Twitter to answer questions on when the next build might materialize, and while saying that he wouldn't normally do this, Aul seemed to reveal that just one bug is blocking the build, and that they are "weighing options."

    If it has a known bug I'd rather wait until it's ready.

    I agree, waiting and not having a bug is far better than rushing things and having to deal with a bug, IMO.

    Windows 10 TP is finally working good for me and I want to keep it that way. I can wait for any known bugs to get fixed.

    Lets hope they fixed the other stuff that was messed up in b9926, while they're squashing this "superbug".

    I hope they fix it soon, I've got one bricked SSD and the other one is playing up. I'm now on 9926 and I've got no Start Menu and no Start Screen. I couldn't be bothered trying to fix anything I'll just wait till the next build, if my drive doesn't conk out on me in the meantime.

    Hi there

    W10 TP (enterprise) version build 9926 is working just fine so far for me both on real and VM's and I've even got Office 2016 preview working on it (I sneaked through yesterday when there were some links leaked online - no prior subscription to office 365 was required). The install program installed on a Real machine and 3 VM's - and Office 2010 was not affected so BOTH can run concurrently.

    OK perhaps the next builds will have Touch devices better handled - but the initial problem was for Ms to get traditional Desktops working again properly which they largely have done IMO in this build.

    OK they can tinker around with the start menu --I prefer the menu in version of the previous build 9847 which you can do in 9926 - Brink's tutorial shows how. It's not perfect but quite liveable with.

    So far I'm quite impressed --- it doesn't run out until October so there's plenty of time for Ms to release further builds -- but we don't want any hosed up versions.

    I can't say if I want Cortana or not -- might be OK on a mobile device -- not sure I want it on a desktop.


    Excel spreadsheet Office 2016. Runs 2010 VBA macros and customiseable so you don't have to have the HIDEOUS Office 2013 white background.

    Cheers

    if they fix that one bug that will probably be new build. That means as a new build it will restart it's release cycle (not public tests). If build release cycle is same as it was before it will take some time until public release.
    Fixing one bug may create another :)
