it wouldnt let me upload my screen s

 

KB[numbers go here] = patch

 

Build [numbers go here] = New build.

 

You see Build 9926 in lower right hand corner?  If so, you are not on new build unless you have newer version of build installed.

 

 

Oh, that's a patch, not an actual new build.

 

Quillz is right.

I wish they would just call it Files with the // as an icon and bring it over to Windows from WP.

any clue as to when we will see any new build of 10? with the leak of the 10009 build apparently, we could use an update build to see how things are coming along.

Update coming next week, but the new build isn't coming until late Feb, according to Twitter.

Anyone ran into this problem and know of a solution? I remember something similar happening on Windows 8 that was specific to one user account...

Tech Preview Build 9926, noticed this a few days ago, shortly after the latest update. Not sure if it was this way before the update or not, unfortunately.

sorry for the late reply, i did update using the built in app. After messing around with the reg I decide to format and clean install, now im unable to make the PIN logging to work :/ I have to type my full password to log, not cool... waiting for the next built hope they fix those weird issues. 

Reported the bug already to MS

I had that bug, and I just shut down my computer and then turned it on again.

I gotta say, using Windows 10 b9926... Explorer just feels ancient to use and look at. Hopefully, they can modernize it. It just doesn't fit anymore in the OS the way it is.

 

How so? I think it looks and works just fine.

    • Microsoft Edge 149.0.4022.52

      By wingliston · Posted

      It's time to say goodbye to Edge and switch back to Firefox. There's no way to disable the ugly rounded corners that appear everywhere. Not even on the page frame. No one uses screens with rounded corners, you idiots.

      Being on Github makes it more trustable since I can see the code at any point.
    • Gen Atlas is the next game from Shadow of the Colossus creator, this time with giant robots

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Gen Atlas is the next game from Shadow of the Colossus creator, this time with giant robots by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The mind behind widely well-received games like Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, and The Last Guardian, Fumito Ueda, showed up at Summer Game Fest today, and that was to reveal his latest project. Being developed by genDESIGN, Gen Atlas is incoming with what looks to be plenty of mech and robot action. Watch the reveal trailer, which makes not much sense, above. The game will have players waking up on an abandoned planet where deserted facilities and grand designs from the original creators remain. Soon, they will stumble upon a colossal robot, from which players gain access to the power to change the world. "Across an endless expanse of time, the remnants of those forgotten constructs begin to move once more," adds the studio. The gameplay snippets seen in the trailer show the player character climbing giant robots (as expected from the creator), while also controlling these titans somehow as well. This is a fully single-player open-world adventure. “The team and I are grateful to all the fans who’ve been eager to learn more about our game,” says Fumito Ueda, CEO and creative director of genDESIGN. “Their passion and enthusiasm has always motivated and inspired us. We hope to share an experience that inspires moments of quiet wonder and discovery.” Before gaining the name Gen Atlas, Ueda first announced this project back in 2024 with the codename Project Robot. Interestingly, this will be a project being funded and published by Epic Games, which should mean that a Steam release is out of the question. Gen Atlas will be releasing on Epic Games Store, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced just yet.

      How backwards can you have it? Yes, Linux was gaining because of Linux handhelds and the push for gaming compatibility, but that's not desktop users, it barely converts anyone who owns a SteamDeck, though it helps for those who wanted to do it, but anyways, the AI+RAM debacle helped Linux because people can't easily upgrade their PCs easily and many hate AI so they'd be incentivized to try Linux.
