I am getting Error code 3 trying to install this?I have no idea why .... Windows updates don't see it at all.

It's for Release Preview Ring so if you don't see it on WU or get an error it means that you aren't on rp ring. No worries, just ignore this update.

Here's the changelog btw:

•Improvements to general application compatibility
•Improvements in the upgrade experience, including fixing an issue where some devices would lose data connections or touch input after upgrading to Windows 10.
•Improved the reliability of reminders
•Improved UI for tracking data usage under Settings > Network and wireless > Data Usage.
•Improved the navigation bar experience for some devices.
•Fixed an issue where some SD card readers were not recognized
•Updated Daylight Saving in countries with Daylight Saving changes

I am getting Error code 3 trying to install this?I have no idea why ,Also is this for updating the ISO or my main win install itself,Windows updates don't see it at all.

I got the same error. I messed up my copy and paste technique. It was pretty easy to fix though. Let me try and explain step by step.

1. Download the .cab file you need for your install, 32-bit(x86) or 64-bit(x64)
2. Create a new folder in C:\. Open file explorer/This PC and click on drive C:. Then move the pointer to the area where files/folders can be clicked to open them. If you can't find an open space where the pointer won't automatically highlight an existing file/folder, then right click and move the pointer slightly away from the highlighted file/folder and right click again. Or if you can find an open space just right click there. This will bring up the panel showing New >. Point to New and click Folder. Name the new folder "folder" for simplicity.
3. Find the .cab file you downloaded and right click on it. Copy it. Then go back to the new folder and paste it there.
4. Then open Command Prompt as administrator. All apps>Windows System>Command Prompt - right click>More>Run as administrator.
5. Then copy and paste the following script(without the bold part):

For 32-bit: dism /online /add-package:C:\folder\windows10.0-kb3157621-x86_37feb75954eb4477a49ed9dcae2ef179c9ec166f.cab

For 64-bit: dism /online /add-package:C:\folder\windows10.0-kb3157621-x64_0cda29d0ac9c9600a2d2f96775857d8785842ed9.cab

6. Then hit Enter. And be patient. It takes a little while to complete.
7. When prompted to hit Y to restart and finish the update.
8. Once fully completed go back and delete the new folder. It's no longer of any use.

New Realtek audio drivers specially for W10 x64

Thanks! I'm glad you mentioned it. I just downloaded and installed the newest Realtek audio drivers(6.0.1.7330) from MSI for my Z77A-GD65 Gaming yesterday. Then today they released newer ones(6.0.1.7801). It might have been a while before I went back looking for newer ones. I subscribe to the "always the newest drivers" policy.

I don't get the moving old programs to the windows store bit. What's the point? I notice those already there are still in Windows Accessories. Is that going to change or something?

Not a problem. MS updates Realtek audio quite frequently. Unfortunately in 99% it won't even appear in Windows Update, that's why I always download/install them manually.


The first was calculator, there was classic and app version but later they killed classic for good. I think they will do the same to all accessories' programs and move them to Windows Store so they all can have mobile gui. I think they want it to be centralized like in Linux or OS X.

any idea whats new that matters to general use?

Better compatibility with sd cards, audio cards and other devices, less bsdos, less crashes with some apps/programs, less hdd spikes, ram leaks and cpu bleeds: in a nutshell lots of bugs are fixed, it's definitely better than the first th1 and th2 builds.

UI changes, enhanced Cortana and more W10 exclusive stuff. Edge browser/pdf reader is still lame.

Speaking for myself, W10 is pretty good. I had no major issues at all.

 

[Mussels]

i'll use it to update my laptop first and then decide for the rest of my systems.

I've disabled windows update and, and decided to rely on these larger updates (with occasional manual updates if i have issues/need drivers)

anyone else think its bad that our PC's get bloated with updates meant for phones, and vice versa?

Back in the day entire Windows XP or Microsoft Office was about 600-700 MB, now cumulative updates are around 700 MB lol

I've just installed build 14342 and it's pretty good. Here are the first things I've noticed:

fresh install is exactly 10 GB

Windows Defender got new icon, even in taskmgr

regedit didn't change at all; icons in gpedit are finally transparent;

Going to Settings -> Accounts -> Sign-in options simply crashes Settings app.

Start is bloated with crap I don't care about (world of tanks, duolingo and bla). Feedback hub is now uninstallable but Connect can't be uninstalled at all.

Eventvwr threw a single critical tcp_ip error (just like in previous build), even though it wasn't a critical error at all and everything works as it should, no bsods or crashes.

Some items' names in services are screwed:

GUI changes in Personalize, System, Accounts, Update & security.

New Paint app isn't there yet.

Microsoft Edge and Internet Explorer 11 are even better together in the Windows 10 Anniversary Update

so i am lurking on this thread for a minute and have a silly question:

is there any way to just upgrade to the most recent build? or do i upgrade (this will be through media creation tool, btw) and then clean install the most recent build?

sorry if another thread i neglected to look for covers that.

 

[MrGenius]

I would think you could just upgrade with the media creation tool. And if that doesn't give you the most recent build, then install the latest cumulative update. Keywords: cumulative and update. But if you wanted to clean install the latest build I'm sure there are isos to be found. But then you'd have to activate it.

 

[Mussels]

i use the media creation tool and upgrade, you start it from within the OS.

I've been disabling windows update after initial setup and upgrading my PC's that way for months with zero problems.

latest builds can be clean installed with a 7/8 key as well, but that'll end july 29

 

[RejZoR]

Is there a way to create bootable USB drive using Media Creation tool and Windows ISO that was downloaded before using this tool? I don't want to re-download it every single time I want to make a bootable USB.

use the 'windows 7 USB DVD tool'

 

[RejZoR]

Didn't even know MS offers such tool lol. I've always used WinToFlash or Zotac's USB creator.
