[OFFICIAL] Windows 10 Insider Program

[PotatoAlchemist]

I clean installed build 10162, then upgraded to 10166, and now to RTM. And even after I've changed It to stop getting Inside Preview builds, Windows is still stuck as activated.

Was this supposed to happen like that?

[bandit_liberty_rumble]

It is.

I just updated. Still looks the same here (ignore the fact that I changed my accent color).

Groove Music still mutes audio when minimized.

What's your monitor configuration in terms of scaling/DPI per monitor?  Which one is primary?

200% . Only one monitor.

 

Same here.

Thanks. Also, is it just me or is it extremely frustrating to try to resize a Window on 10 with the thinner borders? I can hardly believe this is really how they are going to ship it. Don't get me wrong,I like the look, in fact this is almost exactly what I wanted, but the invisible area around the window that can be grabbed to resize it is only maybe 3 px wide, at least when resizing from the top of the window. Compare this to e.g. OS X where the same area is about 7px wide with no visible borders at all.

Anyone noticed a different, larger text cursor and an odd outlined finger cursor when highlighting a link?

The visual border is thinner, but the mouse hit spots for the width you can grab is the same as Windows 8.1.

Is it the real RTM? Can I stop the insider preview now and reset my system to factory defaults?

[HawkMan]

Kind of....a bit of a ham-fisted fix though

 

 

That's not how the borders look...

[bandit_liberty_rumble]

The visual border is thinner, but the mouse hit spots for the width you can grab is the same as Windows 8.1.

Is that so?   Like I said, it feels extremely awkward to me, but on the other hand I haven't really heard anyone else complaining about it. Certainly looks a lot better (as does Windows 10 in general), that much's for sure.

Looks fine here.

The borders are the same size as on windows 7. so it's the same as resizing on windows 7, only the visuals are smaller.

Only happens with the window in the background and the UI at 200%.

I find that fairly difficult to believe but can't compare it myself right now. 

[Boo Berry]

Ugh, the Store icon in the taskbar looks messed up again and Mail and Xbox's icons are blank.

 

EDIT: Fixed it.

[bandit_liberty_rumble]

Am I blind/too dumb to find it, or has the (Win32) Windows Photo Viewer been removed from the system?  

[HawkMan]

 

I find that fairly difficult to believe but can't compare it myself right now. 

 

It's the same DWM as in windows 7, someone even tried to use that as a complaint. you can "hack" the DWM to show the full borders if you want, but they're there, the border you see is just a mostly transparent graphical overlay. this allows for thin or no borders with the actual grabbable border area of a much bigger border.

Right click and open with still shows windows photo viewer. 

 

I think like on windows 8 it doesn't have a exe file of it's own anymore but lives inside some DLL's or something and needs to be launched as a special shortcut if you want to launch it separately, but since it has no "open" function, and is just a viewer it was removed as a app on the all apps list.

Yup. It's weird

None of the issues I had in build 10159 has been fixed.

• Snap is still broken
• Project My Screen is still listed under Storage (in Settings) as taking over 13GB of space
• Settings and Disk Cleanup detect a few gigabytes of temporary files that just don't get deleted
• Dragging an Edge tab to a new windows causes the new window to open with just the Edge logo showing.
• Pasting text in wordpress.com's Visual editor still causes a weird glitch where a lot of japanese characters appear.

All issues that only appeared in 10158.

 

Oh, and if I use myAppFree, clicking a link to an app's listing on the Store leads to an error page. I forgave it at first because it was in Beta stage, but now it's the only Store, and it's no longer considered Beta (at least in its name).

 

I'm really fearing this will be completely broken by July 29th.

 

First and second bullets are still an issue in 10240. Come on, Microsoft, get it together.

 Right click and open with still shows windows photo viewer.  

For whatever reason, it doesn't for me. Weird.

[xendrome]

Is it the real RTM? Can I stop the insider preview now and reset my system to factory defaults?

 

Yes, in 10166 if you went to Opt Out, you were greeted with this and told you must roll back to your previous OS.

 

 

Now if you Opt Out in 10240 you are greeted with.

 

 

So yes, you can Opt Out and then do a refresh.

Not in the full "choose another app" list either?

[bandit_liberty_rumble]

Not in the full "choose another app" list either?

Nope. Doing a full reset now.

After a full reset:

 

[patseguin Global Moderator]

Yup. It's weird

What a weird random thing for them to mess up, haha. I certainly hope they fix it before RTM. It's such a minor little thing but it kinds of detracts for the polish of the OS.

 

Oh, and clicking 'quote' to reply to a post on Neowin never works the first time in Edge. It always leaves out the quote and I have to scroll back and find the post and do it again.

Do anyone have the last ISO from before they suspended the downloads available? I have the old build 9926 ISO, but I have been busy doing other things for a few months and would like to try a clean install with 10260 (or 10166 if that was the last proper .iso put out). Even just an MD5 sum of the official .iso would be appreciated.
