    Hi FairLane!

    I’m at work right now but I’ll look at this later tonight. The ISO is around 4GB, so I imagine Something like that.

    Hi, i installed it through regular Windows update- no problem with installation, only sound driver issue like Rogus after install complete , otherwise eveything ok. It takes app. 16GB of disc space but you can clear it later with disc clean up tool in WIN along with previous old versions and updates and you can clear some additinal space as well.

    Hello.

    My installation took 18 GB. I now have a windows old with 24 GB and the new with 18. I got version 1607 OS build 14393.10. I did notice that Edge is lagging. No issues with printers or accessing USB or SD Cards.

    I had major problems making enough space…Anniversary update wanted 22 gb free disk space. Took all day running uodate dozens of times to eventually get 24.5 gb free so it could install.

    Now everyone I run windows it just stays there in my desktop and every thing I touch it comes up in a box

    That process is taking a long time

    Kill or wait (something like that!)

    Cannot use it at all!

    Help…….

    I hope you did a back up. If more than 3 hours passed, you may consider stopping it. However, I don’t trust windows so I’m not sure what will happen if you do that. If you have a backup, then go for it. I did my update from an ISO file, because the download and installation failed.

    Process of freeing space can take a long time, I would give it a few hours before deciding to pull plug.

    I just finished update, it took 3 and a bit hours including an hour for the initial download. It seemed like it stayed on 15% of the upgrade process for ever but I left it alone and eventually it completed. I had 27.5 GB free at the start and 13.6 GB free at the end. I should be able to recover some of that when I clean out the old Windows.

    Well I finished running disk cleanup and now got 22 GB free so still lost around 5 GB in the update. Windows seems to be working fine but it’s crazy how much free space you need to do this update. I have another tablet that only has a 30 GB Windows partition and only 11 GB free after uninstalling nearly everything so I can’t see me freeing enough space to do the update on that one.

    Edit: managed to complete the update on three different devices, the key seems to be freeing up as much space as possible before you start.

    Crazy Win10 wanting all that space to upgrade. Why can’t it download to SD card or USB!!

    Anyway eventually tuned off H12 and currently using Android. Wen I have more time today I will try to boot into windows again.

    It did seem to install correctly, as I got the welcome screen and let’s go……but when loaded it just stuck on the desktop

    How do you run Windows 10 in safe mode…..so I can at least see the logs?

    I did the install the other day, but revertet back to 1511 last night, coulden copy anything to or from my sd card without locking everything else up, and win feels alot slower (well at least for me it does)

    So far so good with my update. Everything is running OK! I tried to delete the windows.old but couldn’t make it. I read that windows 10 will delete it 30 after the update. We’ll see!

    I deleted my old Windows in Disk Cleanup – System files. It did warn me that I couldn’t go back.

    Everything seems to be running fine with good performance. The new Skype Preview works well and I like being able to pin tabs in Edge.

    At the moment Remix is still my favorite but I might spend a bit more in Windows now.

    There is an ISO, those are bootable from USB if you copy the ISO to a bootable usb using Rufus or a similar program

    I don’t like the way it’s eliminated the moveable video preview when you have another window active. It’s now a notification bar that projects out the bottom right, and interferes with my ability to change volume through the taskbar unless skype is the active window
