If I install this build now and tomorrow Microsoft releases a new Insider Preview build, will it auto-update?
I'm asking this because this isn't the official insider build and thus I'm confused.

it's true that no one has a definitive answer, but every leak i have loaded, even the ones they said will NOT update, did update to the next official build. but here's the thing, you have ways of making assurances. first, you can download for free a program called macrium backup. it takes an image of your entire system, and can restore it at any given time. that way you are not really taking any chances. then you can update to the leaked 10147 and enjoy all of its benefits until the official one comes out. when the official one does come out, this build will most probably update to that one, but if it doesn't, just use macrium to reload your image and update normally as you would have anyway. the best of both worlds. again, this situation isn't nearly as difficult as a lot of people are making it out to be. it's actually quite simple, whether this leak will update or not. it's your choice to do what you want, but for me, sitting on 10130, which has a lot more problems, and waiting on them to release the next official, when you could be experiencing a much better system is ridiculous. i updated both of my partitions with 10147, and i'm sooooooooo glad i did, because it's ten times better.

Kid #1: "Nope. Why should I?"
Kid #2: "Wait till ya get it!"

This is a copy and paste of your statement from #382.
If you do not sign in with your Microsoft account, then the new Insider system won't know you're an insider. If you use a Microsoft account that is not registered with the insider program for your Windows 7/8.x then it won't know you are or aren't one.
If you bothered to read the "Microsoft Account Notification" I posted in #384 ,you would realise that from now on you must have a Microsoft account connected in order to continue receiving Windows 10 builds.
This renders your above statement irrelevant.
