    This is the 3rd build in a row where I cannot D/L the new build on the first day. It is immediately available upon boot up on the second day, As soon as I check for dates, its already there and usually starts a defender up date and then the build follows. ?? The puter is shut off as is the ups that powers it for the night.

    Seems like the new build replaces the windows.old file with a new one even after multiple attempts to delete it. In the past if one already exists it will generate windows.old(1)
    That's a new one! To be honest, I've never seen it create windows.old(1). Looks very similar to what Explorer would do if you downloaded a file you already had. Like this:

    Joanne, I had the windows.old problem and finally got rid of it with macrium by starting with startup disc and it allows you to view all drives/directories and erase selected folders/files. Don't know what was in the .old files except I could not view anymore than windowsapps. It is now gone and on reboot it stayed 'gone' and everything works without problems.

    Thank you for your concern. I have managed to get rid of it, at last, by logging into Safe Mode and running CCleaner and Disk Cleanup a couple of times. It took a couple of reboots, as well.

    We are finally going to find out more about what exact features are going to be baked into RS 2 on Wednesday!! Can't wait. I have had it with these occasional bug fixes and the usual feature enhancements. I want more concrete details about the new features that will define RedStone 2 as a major new release for Windows 10. Finally.

    I'm not too sure they have a really concrete plan but are playing it by ear.
