Announcing Windows 10 Insider Preview Fast & Skip Build 16273 for PC

recruit2 · 25 Aug 2017

Tried to install twice so far (from 16257) and it's failed and auto rolled back itself twice

Shut down my computer and trying again now for a third time as I really want these MS Edge bug fixes!!! :)

Damn, third time failed. Any ideas?
I keep getting "Restoring your previous version of Windows" after the update fails mid way through...

16273 has failed to install several times on my Win 10 laptop - first installation got to 14% in Working on Updates phase, then the system spontaneously reverted to 16257. Several Retry attempts also failed, error 0x80070020. I tried to update from within Safe Mode (one suggested cure for that error) but with no luck. Quitting for the night (almost 11 PM EST), will try to research this some more tomorrow. May try a clean install but I don't know that I can trust the ISO I created, as that was the one that failed the first time.

Yep me too, exactly the same thing. I'm stuck on 16257 as well and can't get past it, have you had any luck yet?

I clean installed 16251 from Slow Ring, rejoined Insider, and joined Fast Ring, clicked for updates, and it immediately started to update to latest version.

Nothing in this Build enhances my user experience beyond that of the previous Build.

It's mostly oriented to fixes than any other improvements. I haven't had problems (except for Edge that I don't use much anyway) that most of those fixes fixed. One of fixes I have seen is problems with notifications for instance. It used to show many notifications but when I open them none are there. Also noticed that I had to dismiss fly-outs few times before they would get out of the way, now one click does it. A fly-out still prevents any clicking in it's vicinity until it's dismissed or it gets out of the way.

Forgetting the 3 to 5 hour upgrade process I have had with every build since UUP was introduced in December, I have to say this build seems to be near perfect. I like it, I like the fact that Edge is now a reliable, well working browser, I simply like everything in this build.

This mirrors my experience as well. Very nice and stable.

Ditto here. Seems like Edge is a bit snappier now. Last couple of builds it appeared to be slowing down on me.
