hope SFC works on this one

SFC was broken for me in the last two builds. After updating to the current one, I'm able to run SFC with no errors.

I just ran into a weird bug where store apps don't show up in the task switcher, only any desktop apps i have running, this is in tablet mode.

Also Microsoft is tweaking the store design (currently it is still just internally)

Hi everyone 

Is it possible to have my PC using the RTM build of Windows 10, and my laptop on the latest insider build, if both use the same Microsoft account?

I have selected the fast ring on my laptop to get a new build for testing, but so far (its been well over 24 hours) I have not seen the new build show up in Windows Update and according to regedit, the things needed in it hasnt been added.

So, is it possible to do this? and secondly, is there a link to a kb file that I can get that will manually enable the insider program for me on the laptop? 

Thanks all

SmartScreen filter seems to be broken..

I'm not 100% sure but i think you can have one on official and one on preview with the same MS account, there's no reason it wouldn't work for you. If the update doesn't show up on your laptop you can grab the newest iso, think it's 14295, install that and then it should be able to upgrade to 14316 after. Otherwise you might just have to keep waiting i think.

Thanks for the feedback, going to download the iso as suggested, and use that to upgrade to 14295, and then hopefully 14316.

The answer is yes, this can be done no problem.  My Surface 3 is on Insider Fast ring, my machine machine is on Windows 10 Current Branch (1511).   The requirement is to have a Microsoft Account to Access Insider, however, running the Insider is a per Machine issue.  You can move out of the Insider on that machine, while keeping it running on other machines.

Thank you for the answer. I'm not sure why I haven't been offered the new insider build on the laptop since its now coming up to the 36 hours mark since I selected it, but for now, i'm doing George's suggestion of installing 14295 and seeing if I then get offered the latest after that is installed. If not ill just use 14295

Font rendering on this build went screwy a bit for me. Running the ClearType tuner fixed it on Firefox and a few other apps but the start menu apps list still looks awful.

 

Other than that it is running well considering how much has changed in the last build.

Anyone else had an issue with at least the last two builds where after a couple of restarts the Ethernet just stops working completely and never starts working again without  rolling back to non insider build?

I haven't had that issue,  I've had times where the whole system just locks up on the lock screen using the touch keyboard though.

you can also download the 14316 esd and create an ISO.

I sent Neowin the roadmap link as a tip, but don't see anything so here's a link to an article: Thurrott.com/Brad Sams has some nice coverage of the features:

"Picture in Picture" seems to be coming for media content like videos (would be nice to have like iOS has)

I did it the long way, and it worked fine. 
Loving 14316 so far!

how about getting windows totally screwed up upon restart without no apparent reason? cleartype is turned off, multiple app crashes and windows boots whenever it wants to desktop. else hangs at the login screen... doing a fresh install to RTM from USB.. hope it works

*with no apparent reason.sorry for double post

Check your Rings, that will be in the Update/Advanced section.  Defenitaly take George's suggestion, they are normally quite good.

For me 14316 is just a tad bit more stable than the ones before it.  I still get random lockups from time to time and i've had 2 bsods, the ladt two builds would bsod often thougjh.

Safe mode is a disaster.

Latest update to Groove seems to have improved the speed of signing in and drawing content while scrolling.

Winbeta.org has a video of the messaging everywhere beta in action.

The new mobile update is pretty good love the ability to rearrange action center items, hopefully it comes to PC. Also wish Action Center was translucent, but the inclusion of media controls on the lock screen kinda makes up for the lack of any other changes.
