I just had something odd happen!

I used Cortana vocally, and she went full screen Bat $h*t on me.

I tried telling her not to do that, but like a woman, she didn't understand correctly either:

Finally she got it right

Wynona here is a pic of the general idea.
You would need to setup one of your unused routers as a wireless bridge. Your daughter's setup would be the one on the left and you would be the one on the right.

I used that same router for years at home...

OK then: I have to concur that 16215 is the most "interesting" IP release we've had since before Win10 went into its first public release. I had to roll back my Dell VP11 even after a clean install with a disk wipe and repartitioning because .NET wasn't working properly, WU wouldn't deliver feature updates properly, the machine was dog slow and balky, and driver issues galore popped up therein. Now, I see on my other test machine that the "DISM contradiction" (usually a sign of flight signing issues) continues:

I'm going to remain fascinated with this one for some time to come, I believe.
Thanks for everybody's hard work and useful suggestions on overcoming the various hurdles this release poses. After I image my stable, working install on my Dell, I'm going to follow Kari's suggested workaround approach using sysprep. I'll report back here with my findings/results later today.

I am working with a more elegant 100% working solution now, got the idea when thinking the workaround I posted more thoroughly. It still needs testing but looks good, kind of "Clean install Insider build upgrade keeping your user profiles, user data and installed software".

Confusing title, yes, clean installing with users, data and apps intact but that's basically how it works.

I'm beginning to think the same thing, Brummyfan. The more I read, the more problems that could be a deal breaker for me.

Don't be so sad, at least Microsoft gave you two a choice.

This build has been a real pain, Edge freezing often, some websites don't respond, I am going to stay with 16199 for a while

Quote From Dona:

ADDED 6/9: Some Insiders have reported having their installation of this build getting stuck or hung at around 33%. If this happens to you, you will need to restart your PC and have it rollback to Build 16199 and wait for the next build with a fix.
