Hi,
@fjk61011: Why did you use that edition to do a clean install while *99.15 is already out ?
No offense intended, just curious.
Cheers,
This might or might not be RTM....if so there remains an awful lot to be done before it can be released to the general public.
Have just done an Upgrade from 1703 Build 15063.632 to Insider 16299.15. on an SP4 Pro i7 with download speed of 250mbs.
The Update took believe it or not just over two hours fifteen minutes....this included an unwanted break after about an hour
Numerous times I clicked Retry......Unable to update files due to error 0x80070020....a search revealed this indicated computer needed to be restarted.....then to again click Retry.
If this was released as an "Update" to the outside world in its present state, dustbins would be full of unwanted computers.
Lately during these updates, I have set my normal hours as 1am-2am. When the d/l starts, I just walk away for several hours (chores etc.) and come back to the sign in screen. Just for the heck of it, tried an iso from windows.old, and it appears to have worked. I am still getting some "hanging" while using EDGE. FF56 seems a little slow with this build.
There is a lot of new functionality in the supposed RTM. I had to dig fairly deep to find the new stuff while, some popped out immediately. Gonna be fun playing around with this one. Install was perfect, with some resetting of drivers etc, expected, everything passed the sfc /scannow and dism health. I actually reclaimed more real estate on the SSD about 2GB worth. total. dumped out after install about 25GB of old stuff. This update was done over top of the 16xxx.xxx (what ever that last cumulative ud was (already forgot that one).
Before downloading the 17004 upgrade, I had never had a build upgrade done under 4 and a half hours since introduction of UUP in December 2016. At least three three hours to "Restart now", then at least 90 minutes to restart to desktop.
When 17004 was announced, I turned firewall off and completely disabled Windows Defender, my chosen AV protection. I got to "Restart now" in under 90 minutes, over half from previous record, and restart to desktop was done in just under an hour. Still not as fast as with ESD upgrades, but at least I could cut the time required to half.
