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.

    • So they saved ton of money by using AI resulting in loss of crap load of money in recalls and expenses. Bravo. Management needs to be replaced by AI, not engineers.
    • Ditto that, I have a few Alexa devices around the house to control lighting and such for a disabled person I live with, and it shows a *lot* of ads on the display. The dots are simple but effective. A lot cheaper too.
    • Go for a Echo Dot or Pop instead. These Echo shows just advertise to you.

NetSpeedTray v1.3.3: The Updater Fix A stabilization release that repairs a critical regression in v1.3.2: the app shipped without OpenSSL, which silently broke every HTTPS request — including the built-in update checker (the "Could not check for updates" error many of you hit).

Changes: Fixed update checking — Resolved a critical issue that prevented the app from checking for updates ("Could not check for updates"). Fixed startup crash with Auto-Cycling — The app no longer crashes on launch after enabling Cycle display mode.

Fullscreen visibility fix — The widget now correctly stays visible over fullscreen apps when Keep Visible is enabled. Improved AMD Ryzen temperature detection — More reliable CPU temperature monitoring for Ryzen processors. Cleaner upgrades — Installer now removes outdated application files during upgrades, preventing DLL/version conflicts while preserving user settings. Improved stability — Fixed potential DLL loading issues by excluding critical OpenSSL and NumPy components from UPX compression. Better settings window — Scrollbars removed and layout improved for a cleaner experience. Localization improvements — Updated translations and completed missing UI text across all supported languages. More reliable releases — Added regression tests covering recent critical fixes, bringing the test suite to 196 passing tests.
