Announcing Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 15031 for PC Insider

Some massive new features to go along with that would be awesome!

That would be about a 64GB download, UUP or not.

Whatever the next build will be and even if some members will think "Why is he always repeating that? It has been told already!", I want to remind you geeks about this:

If you want to get the next build as ESD upgrade you have to remember to disable UUP first. Now is a good time to check you are ready for ESD, instructions and downloadable registry files can be found in this post.

Keep on your mind that UUP registry settings will always reset to UUP enabled / ESD disabled when you upgrade, and are set to UUP enabled / ESD disabled after a clean install. This means that even if you disabled UUP and got build 15031 as an ESD upgrade, your registry was reset when you upgraded and is again set to enable UUP.

If you do not edit registry again leaving it as it is, you will get the next build as UUP upgrade.

Because it's something that bears repeating.

I'm thinking the same thing. MS needs to get Windows 10 ready for the next general release.

This is probably heresy, but they could start by releasing Windows 10G, and leave the Windows 10 an OS, not an Xbox.

Well said!

I suspect it is at least semi-offical. If it was totatally warez Microsoft would have shut it down long ago. Usually it takes 2 days for a new compile to appear on the Canary Build. I still think its likely the next release will be 15041.x I subscribe so I got a notice a few hours ago that a build had been uploaded. Need to keep in mind that this is not an "officiail" Microsoft site either.

What's wrong with Windows 10 being a Jack of all trades and a master of none? :)

One size fits all. That is an old, old issue. Add to that the current apparent push to Enterprise Insiders, I don't know where their focus is.
