Announcing Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 15031 for PC Insider

OK, Hyper-V users - another issue I've just started having (or just noticed at any rate):

With Hyper-V Management console enabled, if I go to Actions --> Inspect Disk, The MMC force closes. If I go to Edit Disk --> Locate Disk and press the Browse button, same thing.

Checked first page, nothing Hypre-V showing.

Anyone else with this issue?

No issues with Inspect or Edit Disk here.

Odd. 2 issues now with this build that no one else is having.

- just out of interest, I know that MS recommend we have the Game Mode switched on when playing games..
- is the opposite also true - will having Game Mode on affect the normal everyday/business running of the PC..??

ie. should we remember to turn it off..?

@BugMeister ... I turn it off, but doesn't seem to stick. I turn all the game stuff off (not a gamer...), but Game Mode likes to turn itself back on, always. I just try to ignore it. I'm not clear on what all it really does to performance and/or graphics settings. I'd prefer to have the whole Game Mode bag as an optional feature so I could uninstall it! But that's never gonna happen. :)

I might be due for a reinstall. It seems that spawning pop-up dialog boxes is crashing a lot of things. I cannot even spawn a pop-up open box in Firefox without it crashing, exactly the same as is happening with Hyper-V.

I know what I am going to be doing this weekend....

ouch.......

Trying to update my Toshiba laptop from 15025 to 15031. Sat at Initializing updates for over an hour. I restarted and turned off UUP. It picked up here:


Why does it show two entries for the 15031 update?

Just now, at 83% it dropped to a single update listed (the rs2_release one).

No problems with Inspect Disk. I'm still wondering why the Hyper-V feature on recent builds only requires 1 reboot instead of two. If anybody has a clue as to how to research this I'd appreciate it

You restarted and disabled UUP when it had already started download UUP upgrade. It then started to download ESD update. That's why it showed two entries for same build upgrade.

I hope that will work for you. Logical (and correct) procedure had been to disconnect network and run Disk Clean-up, then edit the registry to disable UUP, restart, re-connect network and start downloading ESD upgrade.

It completed but took a long time. Thanks for the info Kari.
