Google Translator did a good job, translating it word by word. However, as those web translators don't understand the nuances, you quite often lose something in translation.

I guess the correct translation of "Ilo oli / on meidän / minun puolellamme" would be "The pleasure was / is all ours / mine".

Colour codes showing past tense / present tense, plural (we) and singular (I, me).

Same happens with Danish - I used to see Danish colleagues literally translate Danish to English (English was mandatory language) but some of the translations were funny. One girl wrote me "would you like me to c*m* AT your meeting". Choice of AT or TO makes a big difference to sentence - LOL.

I never did work out when to use på properly, so I can understand why!

Less Tweeting, more Builds!!!

It's attending to all those poxy cats!

Remember difference between a dog and a cat.

A dog has a master.

A cat has servants.

@Martin, knowing you have tested Hyper-V VM sharing, does importing your shared VMs work simply by double clicking the .vmcz file? Mine errors out every time:

Attachment 148636

Debugging it in Visual Studio gives a clear reason, lacking permissions:

I have to add path to VMImport.exe to PATH variable in PowerShell profile file as it's simply too long to type every time, see yellow highlight in screenshot below, then I can import manually from elevated PS:

I tried this but it still crashes when trying to import the .vmcz file.

As an aside, I created a junction link to that directory (all one line) from admin command prompt.

mklink /j f:\vmimport C:\Windows\WinSxS\msil_hyperv-ux-ui-vmimport_31bf3856ad364e35_10.0.16251.1000_none_729dfdb4352b2d8f

Hardly seems much point in using this if i have to unzip file to get it to work :-(.

You are on Build 16257.1 or 16257.1000, right? The crash I get clearly states that something in .Net framework crashed, so I think that because VMImport is built for 16251.0 and 16251.1000, something broke this. Simply put the tool chain is linked or referenced to wrong Windows libraries where something, maybe the communication interface or something else changed, thus crashing the whole thing. We have to wait for VMImport to get updated.

As a side experiment, could someone try my theory on a Build 16251.0 machine? Everything should work fine there.

This is a "just for your information":

If anyone is losing their Homegroup access,when Upgrading to the next build, and then needing to rebuild it, Gov Maharaj said on The Defrag Show at Channel 9's site, if you have more than one device, leave one that is signed into the Homegroup on(don't restart it with the other devices), so when the upgrade is done, the other device(s) can communicate with it, and automatically reset themselves to the Homegroup.

HUH!?! I wonder WHY my OneDrive files are stored on a server in the US? They should all be located in Europe somewhere. I currently get 100KB/s transfers, when normally I get 28-35MB/s. That's some HUGE difference.

...don't tell me I have to migrate everything to a new account...darn..that would take quite a while.
