Were you able to get it back?

No, everything I had "achieved" as Insider is and remains gone. Collecting new ones now.

Better take off those slippers. You don't want to skip a beat.

I'll probably end up with a Windows 8 build -

K, I fiddled with Settings and Reg tweak numerous ways! Didn't change my status!

It's all tied to your machine/hardware/bios, whatever! Insider Program, Digital Activation, Skip Ahead..., etc.

So, bottom line is - if you were, you are and will be......if you weren't, you aren't and won't be. Ta-Da!

Yep! :) If you're in, you're in! If you're out, sucks to be you!

Insider machines have an additional Device ID number, whereas, non-Insider machines don't:

It's all online, PC Name, Model No., Serial No.:

Heck, your PC Status is even listed online, doesn't update very frequently, but it's there!

Pretty much covers it - I was on the inside of skippy - screwed up - now I'm on the outside of skippy and can't get pulled back in .

Would it be possible to just install a Skip Ahead ISO that became available from someone here? Or would it get rejected by the Insider settings on your machine somehow?
