Searching for ext.esd always works for me - so I keep doing it

Interesting! I cannot explain that, would be interesting to get other AMD users to tell which folder they have.

I can only say that I do 64 bit Pro, Education and Enterprise ISO images OR upgrades without creating ISO from each build in four languages (five if EN-GB and EN-US are counted as two), the folder is always the same regardless of the edition or language.

I do Pro and Education ISO images also in 32 bit (only EN-GB), in these 32 editions the folder is also always the same.

Thanks, Kari.

Hmm. Interesting indeed. I also have a bunch of folders there that are marked modified today. A few are empty.

I make an ISO and a WIM, which were made with no error.

Anyone else with an AMD so to clarify?

Always seemed the simple way.

I'm going to reboot and finish the process.

I tried all the complicated ones just to soothe my curiosity

The EXT:ESD search is right from your tut. Is that still correct?

Yes. It's the so called "newbie proof" method to always find the correct folder. Checking time stamps might be too much for some users who might even not have Date modified showing in Explorer and other similar reasons.

To make it work as told, tutorial uses this "newbie proof" method.

Guess that makes me an Old Newbie!

Updated 2 different physical Insider builds from 16241>16251. First was set to plain Fast Ring, second set to Fast Ring with the Skip Ahead activated. Made 2 ISOs. One in yellow is the regular Fast, blue is the Fast with Skip. 2 different naming conventions, 2 different sizes. Wonder what all that means?

A tutorial has to be made so that instructions are clear enough and that it works when instructions are followed to the letter. I simply saved some work and effort by not making a tut inside a tut explaining how to show Date modified if it's not shown and how to sort according to last modified time stamp :)

I'm joking around, Kari.
