Announcing Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 15019 for PC Insider

experiencing that battlefield 1 minimising problem now, last night didn't happen.
Now that this update is on, it's minimising... as if something wants to be overlayed in desktop mode.

I added a vote and a comment entry to the insider program post on Feedback Hub. UUP, is really terrible as it is right now. It only consumes a lot of CPU power and downloads almost nothing for most of the time and disk usage is pretty much zero the whole time.

Please geeks do not take this wrong way:

I feel a bit strange reading about your upgrade issues. I feel sympathy, and am constantly playing with virtual machines to try to reproduce some of the issues I am reading about, hoping that I could find something to resolve it or at least find a temporarily fix.

My own upgrades yesterday: I had first ISO made from ESD 55 minutes after Dona's tweet about new build. She tweeted it at 8:32 PM my local time, my first ISO was ready at 9:20 PM. By 2 AM I had upgraded and made ISO images of Windows 10 PRO x64 Build 15019 in Finnish, Swedish, German, UK English and US English, and of Windows 10 Education x64 Build 15019 in UK & US English. Seven upgrades, seven ISO images, within 5 and half hours of release.

It really is strange how these upgrades sometimes work for some users as a dream, always causing issues for some users.

If Microsoft was more concerned with testing Windows code than in testing Internet WU "delivery systems" they'd release an official ISO for each and every build. Some people are intimidated by the whole "make your own ISO" procedure even though it is very simple and straightforward, as you mention. Most of the problems I read about revolve around WU upgrade failures (UUP/non-UUP)...those are at the top the list...with failures during WU upgrade (37%;56%,97%, etc.) coming in second. The iso method is without a doubt the most reliable method! I don't think Microsoft is really getting its money's worth out of the Insider's at the moment because many people are stymied by buggy "delivery" through WU and so never get a chance to install a build to test it--have to roll back and wait. I would have thought thought this an obvious point well known at Microsoft...they are sapping their good-will reserve with the program to some extent because of it, I'm certain.

yeah BUT you gotta remember JoePublic, is NOT going togo that route straight thru via windows Update,with no choice.

They certainly wont use the regedit fix either.

I can see many just going power Off

Then saying whats this GREEN screen.

Theve GOT to sort it.

Custom scaling has been moved to a sub page in display settings

Custom scaling for all screen elements has always been there; but so was a *separate* adjustment for Windows font sizes--you got to choose from among a healthy selection of fixed font sizes for various Windows fonts--no scaling involved. The font-size selector is now gone. (I think it is mainly the people who didn't use this option who keep getting the two confused...)

If you look at the feedback I put on Cliff's "Feedback Hub", I said, briefly, the same thing. I wonder if anybody reads that stuff...................

(yes, Kari, I'm Pop P .....)

Good question...! I wonder about that, too, sometimes.

That happens to me too, no sign of any activity in system monitoring, but then it's ready to install after a short while.
