OK I just changed from Fast to Release Preview on my physical machine. However it would appear that things are in quite a bit of flux at the moment. I also am running a Hyper-V machine I created (using disk2vhd from sysinternals) of my Dual Boot System (Windows 10/Windows 2016 - sans the openSUSE Leap partition). We will see. If nothing is happening here I can just reboot to openSUSE where I have a VMware WS VM of the dual boot system. The last thing I see on Dona's Twitter feed concerns the NYSE.

Marty, if you were already on FAST, you should already be running 15063. Changing it back to Release Preview will just keep you there and not offer any more Insider new builds. If that's what you want.

Yes if MS provides a downloaded ESD. I am on 15063 Fast Ring. if I change to the Release Preview Ring I will stay on that build till RS3 is released and MS does the same thing. Without intervention all you get are updates, CU's faster than non insiders.

The Release Preview update I just did came as ESD.

Changed back to the Fast Ring on the physical machine. I don't think it makes much difference right now

Yes, I did the same. I agree that it makes little to no difference.

Well it would come like that as Release Preview Ring version was still 14393 which did not have extra software added to handle uup updates.

Released to Release Preview Ring around 10 PM UK time yesterday - Upgrade took around 30 Minutes

Forgot to add

At one point during the install the screen was black and totally empty, for several minutes, which was a worry, but it sorted itself - of course YMMV

Just completed the upgrade in my RP VM. Went relatively fast and smooth.

That's obvious, since UUP was only introduced in 15xxx builds, on Insider program. My purpose was not to imply a question of why or to seem surprised, but to affirm the content for anyone familiar with the ESD to ISO process. In case they wanted to make an ISO. Hence, my link with the post pointing to that tutorial.
