Joe: I’ve been doing some reading on the Insider Preview program and I have a question. As an Insider, what’s the level of code you’re receiving? Is it GA code that you get to see before everyone else or release-candidate code in its final testing stages?

14915.1000 installed on my Win10 IP system this morning.

Afterwards had to reset auto-login to Win10, and network settings were messed up. Even after adjusting network settings to suit my workgroup it took three reboots before networking was working again.

Jerry: Thanks. That’s what I figured. I guess “Insider Preview” sounds more inviting than “Beta Testers Needed”. I guess I’ll forgo the Insider Preview; Windows 10 needs the wind at its back as it is.

This was an absolute pig of a release 😡

First of all it took a lot longer than normal to install, in fact, I’m pretty sure it installed twice.

When I finally got to the desktop I had no internet access.  I’ve got ethernet and Wi-Fi installed so it had taken both of them out.

Getting ethernet up and running was pretty straight forward, ‘Diagnose this connection’ from Network connections managed to revive it.

The Wi-Fi is still broken but it is a known problem and has been posted on the Microsoft Community.
I’m using a TP-Link AC600 Archer T2U USB network adapter and here’s how it shows on my PC…

That’s not all!

Even though I am connected to the internet via ethernet, the Feedback Hub insists I’m not! I’ve been able to feed this info back using my tablet 😎

Sorry to hear of your experience Brownie. Doesn’t help you any but my install took the same time as usual and I didn’t experience any internet loss. I do have an ongoing issue with my laptop losing the wireless internet when waking up from sleep but I’ve had that for several builds. Its simple to reconnect but its an irritant.

Does a reboot fix your Feedback Hub issue?

I tried many reboots but with no joy.

I have ended up rolling back to 14905 as my VPN software got clobbered as well 😡

Yes; a very long install process for me, too (over three hours – and I have a pretty fast system). Previous new builds have installed in around 30 minutes within my VM; for some reason this upgrade went through an intermediate full installation (“Build 14913”??) and then did it all again. In the process, it “forgot” that my MS Office was fully up to date and re-downloaded and installed a massive list of Office Patches. I note also, that all Store Apps were downloaded “from scratch” and re-installed AFTER the OS upgrade had completed. Nevertheless, the new build seems to be fully functional now (nearly 7Gigs later!!)

Thanks Pete, I wasn’t imagining things when I thought it installed twice.

@Browni: I am glad I am not alone; but not pleased to be in that category!!

I am in the insider program, and upgraded from the previous insider build. The upgrade was smooth, fast, and painless. In fact I have not found any reason to do a clean install in quite a while. MS has really improved the upgrade process.
