When Insider build upgrade fails - A Workaround

Brink said:

Thank you @cereberus. I'll add this to my list of to dos.

I will pm a link with word version.

Martin, if you are interested to make the tutorial by yourself, I could set up an online Teams meeting with you and show how it's done. That way, the tutorial would be written and published by you.

We could do it later today if you'd like to.

Yeah - that would be good but why not set up a forum general meeting s I am sure other would be interested?

That's a good idea.

Let's give members some time to adjust, I'll set up a Ten Forums Live webcast about how to make tutorials for Saturday (in two days) and use this excellent idea of yours as example, doing it together in live webcast.

If that's OK with you and Brink, I'll post about webcast today.

Perfection.

You will need to have a couple of vhds that need compacting - I assume you have plenty.

I guess if you did it early evening UK time say 5Pm UK,, our friends across the Pond should be able to attend as well?

My idea was that I make you as a presenter, and talk you through the process of writing and submitting a tutorial?

Ok - I think....., go for it.

I suggest I show the actual steps, and then you show how to make a tutorial. This is quite good as an easy tutorial?

This will be an excellent tutorial.

The problem with dynamically expanding VHD files is that they will grow over the time to be too big. When that happens, you have basically only two options: to delete the VHD and create a new one, or compact the existing one.

A tutorial about how to reduce the size of a VHD file is really needed.
