Happy Country Birthday to our neighbors up north

Thanks all! It's been a very happy birthday. And Happy Birthday CountMike! Birthday time at TenForums!

Of course, UK does not have any birthday as such. We could define it as the day of signing of the Union but this itself is all a bit political these days.

As an aside, we have the longest official country name in English - "The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland" and Japan has the shortest (along with one other).

Well, then, Happy Birthday Count!

Thank you, hoping for another one at least, it will start with 7.

At the risk of offending and I do apologise afore, what about the indigenous people of the Americas that were there before the Europeans that created the initial havoc that now summons respect for the fourth of July?

Just a question - that's all.

@Fabler2

Really not the proper place for this discussion, but I will respond once, out of courtesy.

Sorry to burst your balloon, but "The Separate Customs Territory of Taiwan, Penghu, Kinmen, and Matsu (Chinese Taipei)" has it beat.

Language Log: World's longest official country name

I do not think that is an official name in accordance with UN recognised country names.

Well, I hit the ol' 'Restart' button, rebooted, and the updater said something to the effect of "we can't do the update because something's not good", or something equally helpful and informative :-(

So I mounted the ISO I'd made, started setup.exe, and it worked perfectly first time. I am singularly unimpressed with WU/UUP on a number of levels. But at least now I'm on 16232, and so far so good!

Yeah, they go all out to explain why. Kari got a decisive answer, I think UUP to ISO - Create Bootable ISO from Windows 10 Build Upgrade Files - Page 76 - Windows 10 Installation Upgrade Tutorials
