Figured it was over for this week. I have 16199 installed and I removed Hyper-V and will install VMware WS and VirtualBox instead. Reverse the situation on Windows Server 2016 which will now be doing the Hyper-V work.
Yes, they surprised me again...hopefully they are bug fixing existing code as opposed to dumping a lot of new features that aren't close to being ready--I'd rather stability and compatibility than new features, any day, if I have to make a choice. Sorry you and many others couldn't get a build this week! They've slowed things way down so it looks good for them taking some extra time this week to get a stable build next week for those who are feeling the heat this week.
But "we've finished flighting builds this week," must mean that for her a "week" is Thursday through Wednesday, because they have not flighted a build since Thursday 6/8, IIRC (US, EST). So if that's the case then it's possible we'll see a new build tomorrow--since it would be a "new week" tomorrow, but somehow I don't think so. .. Things are really getting pretty sloppy around there lately! It would seem that a logical "week" for them would be Mon-Fri, eh? But if that's the case, then they haven't flighted anything "this week"...
Arrrrghghghghgh! Plain English, Donna!
Like a "fool" I removed my AV completely, removed Malwarebytes, closed One Drive, and many more, and tried loading 16215 for probably the TENTH time. I used DVD (.iso) and the update was going so smooth. It restarted several times as usual, and was coming to an end (after two hours)....................then the GREEN SCREEN - Boot Drive Not Found.
Honest to GOD, I can't believe 50% of Insiders had successful installs ??
I'll say it one LAST time.....................16215 is a POS !!
I'm one of the lucky ones, I've enjoyed the dictation and emoji shortcuts. I have MacrIum Reflect installed and use an SSD, but as a 2nd drive so I think that helped. My laptop doesn't like to boot from M2 anyway. I have an older PC that won't install 215, I've uploaded logs via feedback.
As we're frontline testers, these things happen the roll back and pause is very helpful in these situations
Here is another one that could install it without too many problems, it took a lot of time to prepare the installation as always, but then it was installed without any problem, the only bugs I have are issues with the keyboard in my language, (accents don't work well), and from time to time there is a delay when maximizing the windows or when the start menu is opened.

I still have an ISO on a disk of 215, so may give it one last hard headed try this weekend. Sure don't want to go through the download-install process again. Feel final success is <10% after so many attempts.
