Windows 10 TP Build 9926 does not see 10041 build to do update?


Recommended Posts

I'm running the Windows 10 tp build 9926 and it has been working fine. I'm trying to update to the new 10041 build. I have the Windows update advanced setting: "Choose how preview builds are installed: set to "fast".  When I tell windows update to check for updates, it tells me my device is up to date.  I have already updated 2 other computers from 9926 to 10041 with no problem.

 

Has anyone else seen this issue?

Yeah, I'm on the same boat, it seems to be a wide spread issue, I cannot see the update no matter if I'm trying to upgrade to it from either 9926 or 10036, hopefully MS fixes the issue soon or we will need to wait for the .iso when it hits the slow ring.

Try erasing the Windows Update files:

 

Go to here:

  • C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download

Delete all files.

 

Restart PC.

 

Try again.

 

This will clean the Windows Update cache.

 

 

Edit: Haven't tried this method yet. Had my Windows installation downloading without any problems.

I have been trying for 12 hours now... clicking the check for updates button every 30 minutes. Just says there are no updates available for me. I've rebooted about 15 times now, cleared the cache as above. I even reverted back to Windows 8.1 because I thought it would then upgrade directly to 10041, but it doesn't do that so I'm back on 9926.

 

Help!

Meh. Drags me that you haven't been able to fix your issue.

 

Have you tried changing your Time Zone, or Location settings to US?

Go to HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsSelfHost\Applicability in regedit

 

Make sure...

BranchName = fbl_impressive

ThresholdRiskLevel = high

ThresholdInternal does not exist
ThresholdOptedIn does not exist

 

Restart your computer, check to see if you are on fast, and then check for updates.

 

If that does not work, it is an issue from Microsoft.

Oddly enough, the 'update' option from within the settings app actually worked for me, for the very first time. Seems it managed to keep most of my settings, with very little needed input needed from me afterwards.

 

Windows update, however, no longer works, either from the app, or via the control panel.(yes, I put it back)

 

Notifications, on the other hand, now seems to work even with uac switched off via registry.

I tried switching between slow and fast ring then checking, then rebooting, then checking etc, nothing works.

1. Disconnect from the network

2. Set to Slow Ring

3. Reboot,

Note: At this point you should be getting a OS change telling you to wait

4) Reboot

5) Set to Fast Ring

6) Connect network back

7) Reboot

8) Check for new updates

Ran into this same issue on my ASUS transformer.  9926 update keeps failing when trying to install an Intel display driver so I kept thinking that was causing the 10041 build to not show.  I'll also try Night Prowlers suggestion this afternoon.

Same here, any resolution?

I had the same issue with my graphics driver.  I solved it by going to Device Manager, and uninstalling the driver and then rebooting and letting it be reinstalled.

I have an Asus Tab (me400c) same issue, can't update to 10041. I also have the issue with the Intel video driver failing to install which is preventing other updates from working on 9926. I have removed the driver as suggested by bpa above and rebooted. The 10041 update is now recognized and downloading.

Thanks guys, tried both to no avail, it still finds no updates, I guess I'll wait for MS to fix it.

    • New PowerToys update fixes memory leaks and other issues by Taras Buria Another bug-fixing update is available for PowerToys version 0.100. After releasing version 0.100.1 with a bunch of bug fixes and patches, Microsoft pushed version 0.100.2 to address two important issues with one of Command Palette Dock's features. With PowerToys 0.100.2, Microsoft fixed the performance meter displaying incorrect values and memory leaks, which are particularly unwanted things in the current situation with overpriced PC hardware. Here is the changelog: Reverted a Performance Monitor dock refresh change that forced item refreshes on every metric update Fixed a memory leak in the Performance Monitor dock extension by reusing stable network upload/download band items instead of creating new list items on each refresh For those unfamiliar, Command Palette Dock is a relatively new addition to PowerToys. It is a taskbar-like tool that you can keep on top of the screen to pin various useful widgets, commands, and more. It can display time, weather, your PC's performance metrics, and more. Microsoft introduced the Command Palette Dock in March 2026 in PowerToys 0.98. Microsoft has dedicated documentation for Command Palette Dock, and you can check it out on the official Microsoft Learn website. You can update PowerToys to the latest version by going to Settings > General and clicking "Check for updates." Alternatively, you can download the installer from GitHub using this link. In other news, Microsoft is working on a new window-management utility for PowerToys. Called Alt Window Cycle, it will let you use the Alt + ` shortcut to switch between different windows in a single app. You can learn more about the tool here.
    • You did take leaf out of Trumps book already and had brexit - only to harm yourself. The same goes with this AI nonsense. The obvious solution for these companies is to move their head office to Brussels. I can see quite much irony there... 🙂

    • Wonder if they are trying to slow down Linux traction (not saying this is the only factor) in the consumer space. With the most pressure probably being steam deck/box, etc.
