    It also should not show if windows old and other stuff pertaining to previous installation was removed.
    Yes, I have the option to Uninstall latest preview build. I upgraded through the previous official ISO. I have used Disk cleanup to delete everything, including System files. I recall that I had then an empty folder called "windows.old". I tried removing that folder via CMD (admin) but I got an "Access Denied" for the few (hidden?) files that were inside it. So, I used CCleaner to delete this folder (using the option the software has). I do not care about this build so much anymore. I'm looking forward to the next official ISO (for the Insiders) after July, 29, so that I will do a clean installation.

    Since there was no older installation or it was removed, if one tried to do it, it would come back with a message: "No way Pedro" !!

    There is no option to uninstall the latest preview build unless I am looking in the wrong place. Still have the windows.old folder but all it contains is $Recycle.Bin folder with another recycle bin folder insider it.

    The option is still there but it only redirects you back to the Settings > Updates > Recovery Menu. (On a clean install)

    I did a disk cleanup. I can get to the Lets get started screen, but only get a glimpse and it closes almost instantly.

    Actually, I do see the option going to - Settings > Updates > Advanced options > View your update history > Uninstall latest previous build.

    But I didn't push that button. I don't want to go through another several hour install.

    Like I said, I did an clean install on a brand new, unformatted, 3TB disk from a Windows 10 Pro ver 10240 DVD that I created, from my previous install, on the same computer's old hard disk.
