Hyper-V Not Enabling on Build 10041 of the Windows Technical Preview

So I am running build 10041 of the Windows technical preview. I am not able to enable the Hyper-V Platform. Here are the steps:
Go to Control Panel -> Program and Features -> Turn Windows features on or off - > Select Hyper-V Platform Checkbox.
Windows will perform the install and request a restart.
While restarting, I will get the updating windows message and at about 95 % it gives me a message to the tune of "Unable to update windows" and it roll backs the changes and restarts. No Hyper-V.
Note that I can install the Hyper-V tools with out any issues just the Hyper-V Hypervisor and Hyper-V services will not install.
Anyone have any ideas?

Can't provide an answer, but I have the same problem. I'd originally let my 9926 build, with Hyper-V installed and working, upgrade to the 10041 build. After installation things seemed OK, until I noticed I had no network connections working. They were all
still there, but I had no network access and trying to view the properties of either my physical NIC or the Hyper-V switches just gave me an error.
I tried uninstalling Hyper-V, but after doing that Windows wouldn't boot at all. It'd begin to start up, get almost to the login screen, but then die and reboot. I decided a rebuild would probably be best anyway, so I chose to do a Refresh when it offered
me the advanced repair options.
The Refresh mostly went well, the PC is running better now with a clean install, but I'm now stuck in the same situation where the Hyper-V server won't install. It installs, reboots, gets part way through configuring, then claims to fail and backs it all
out again. No real diagnostic info presented as to why.

Officejet Pro K550 in Windows Technical Preview

The most recent update to Windows Technical Preview Build 9879 keeps stopping the print spooler when the Officejet Pro K550 is attached. It worked fine in the previous builds. Any ideas? I need to keep the USB cable disconnected until I want to print and then uninstall the printer each time or keep restarting the print spooler each time I want to print anything.
Thanks

Hi,
Try running Windows Update and check if any driver update is available, any drivers for the Technical Preview are only available from Microsoft Update servers.
If the issue persists, you will need to wait till an update will become available by microsoft, as a beta OS you are likley to experience this kind of issues, devices hasn't have been tested much, as well as the entire operating system.

Windows To Go Device using Windows Technical Preview

I have successfully made a Windows To Go Device by the steps in this Technet forum post:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/6991.windows-to-go-step-by-step.aspx
Note: I used a host machine running Windows Technical Preview already to make this device, since older versions (Windows 8/8.1) of DISM don't work for imaging Windows Technical Preview Installation.
Everything works fine. The device on which Windows To Go is running is a high-speed USB 3.0 HDD, so there is no significant performance difference. However, while updating to the new build 9860, the upgrade fails stating that you can't install it to a USB
Flash Drive.
Question 1) Does this problem has anything to do with the fact that I am NOT using the enterprise version of Windows Technical Preview, the only version which "technically" supports Windows To Go feature.
Question 2) My host machine (which I used to create Windows TP) has been updated to Build 9860. Should I use DISM to capture the image of this updated build and use it to image the WTG HDD device? Can I get detailed instructions on how to do this?

Hi G.One1,
In current time, there is no direct way to perform the upgrade, in both Native Boot to VHD and Windows To Go.
I was thinking a way to create a ISO file also, but the method would be a bit of complicated.
Here is my thought and steps.
First, if we update our Windows 10 Technical Preview for Enterprise to 9860 build, we would get a install.esd file, in Windows 8.1, here is a tool called update advisor, which would
convert the esd file to ISO file, but in Windows 10 Technical Preview, there is no such thing. So my thought is to use the install.esd to create an install.wim or bootable ISO file.
In my first thought, I want to sysprep an updated OS, but it failed without doubt. So, I choose to use Reset option. Install.esd would be recognized a compressed install.wim.
I copy the install.esd to a 9841 build OS, for example, I copy it to C:\RecoveryImage, and run
reagentc.exe /setosimage /path C:\RecoveryImage /target c:Windows /Index 1 , it cannot reset the Windows OS.
I use Reset option in 9860 build OS, when it is finished, run sysprep, it ran well, I can capture 9860 build wim file (WDS server capture or dism command). We rename it as install.wim.
Use the captured install.wim to set recovery image in 9841 build(copy install.wim to C:\RecoveryImage, and run
reagentc.exe /setosimage /path C:\RecoveryImage /target c:Windows /Index 1), 9841 build succeed upgrade to 9860 build via Reset and Refresh options.
For Windows To Go, Yes, you can use all Windows features with your Windows To Go workspace. The only currently unsupported features are using the Windows Recovery Environment and PC Reset &
Refresh. So this way is not appropriate in your situation. But here we use these steps can convert the install.esd to install.wim, and use reset and refresh option to upgrade current build.
Refresh would upgrade without losing setting and data. For your scenario, use dism to apply 9860 install.wim would be your option.

Problem installing Windows Technical Preview build 9926

I am not able to install the Technical Preview on my computer. Everything looks fine and in the end it says "applying computer settings" and counts the percents before it reboots again.
During the boot it says evaluation build 9926. Then it says Restoring the old windows as it was before... I can't get this to work.
This is the windowsupdate.log file and the last attempt of installing at the end of the file. 21st of march.

Do you know that you can make an ISO to install 10041 and not have to install 9926?

Windows Technical Preview Build 9926 update

Hi,
I am trying to update my Windows 10 TP installation and it seems that it fails to download. I am behind a proxy server in the office with no way around it. Windows Update fails with error 0x80072ee2. What I have picked up is that I can
get the update list if I set a proxy server in BITS using "bitsadmin /util /setieproxy localsystem proxy1:port "bypass list". However bits fails to download the updates returning either Error or Transient_Error. Can you please assist
with this issue?
Regards,
Riaan
EDIT: I set proxy settings of each bits download job to PRECONFIG and the updates downloaded and installed.

Hi,
Did you set the proxy server via IE? Do you mean that the Windows Update Client ignore the proxy settings? To make Windows Update use the proxy setting, please execute the following command from cmd
Netsh winhttp import proxy source=ie
You can refer to this following KB for "how Windows Update finds proxy settings"
How the Windows Update client determines which proxy server to use to connect to the Windows Update Web site

WM_INPUT message no longer sent in Windows Technical Preview build 9879?

I had software that relied on the WM_INPUT message and it used to work with previous builds (and Win 8.1). I needed it for remapping a wireless keyboard's fn key to CTRL key (I was using an Autohotkey script which captures WM_INPUT).
But now looking at the messages sent when typing in the keyboard in a win32 app, only the button down and up are being sent. What changed? how to work around it?
Now I am using a hacky combination of user32.dll's SendInput and some methods from setupapi.dll to read/send the special key values.

Hello ibalhashim,
From your description, do you mean that after remapping the fb to ctrl, then only the button down and up are being sent?
If it is, please share us how you have remapped the keys and please test if removing the remapping operations, the WM_INPUT message would restore. This would help narrow down this issue to see if it is caused by the remapping operations or the win32 app.

Windows 10 to be free upgrade for first year for users of Windows Technical Preview?

Hello, in article I have read that will upgrade to Windows 10 users for free Win 7 & 8.1. I want to ask how it will be with those who use a version of the technical prewiev. I will also have a free update?
Thanks for the answers
Vít Repka

after 1 year if I do not want to purchase the upgrade, what happen to my computer, will go back to window 7?
What do you mean? You've already installed the Win 10 tech preview and you're wondering if it will automatically revert to the old software you were running some months ago after the trial period expires?
LOL
No.
Your expired Win 10 preview will pop up an "expired" notice and become less usable. Assuming it works like all other trial periods of Windows, it will limit its functionality and start shutting itself down every few hours. If you
want to revert it, it will be up to you to reinstall the old version. And then can anyone guarantee that it will reactivate properly?
Beyond that, and to the original point of this thread, what the mechanics will actually be for upgrading to Win 10 after its release on a system that was originally properly licensed for an earlier version of Windows are still not clear. We'd like
to hope that a product code for a legitimate licensed copy of an older version would just work to install Windows 10 from a DVD (ISO), but no doubt it will be more complicated than that. It shouldn't be, but it almost certainly will be.

"Couldn't Install Windows Technical Preview"

I'm on the original install and have seen the above message several times, followed by
"We couldn't update the system reserved partition."
I dual boot with Windows7 on a seperate hdd. And I use EasyBCD as the switcher at boot-up.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Paul

Why or how did "system reserved partition" get involved ?
All my dual booting had been done using this method.......

"The computer started using Windows installation media." Installing windows 10 technical preview on virtual machine

The computer started using Windows installation media. Remove the installation media and restart your computer so that Windows starts normally. The, insert the installation media and restart the upgrade. (Do not
select |custom[advanced]| to perform an upgrade. |custom[advanced]| installs a new copy of Windows and deletes your programs and settings.)
That is the Compatibility report that I'm getting when trying to install onto parallels 10 Version 10.2.0 (28956) on my mid 2009 Macbook 13. This happens just after I click 'Install now' and accept the T&Cs.
I am selecting 'Upgrade: Install Windows and keep files, setting and applications'.
I am upgrading from the Windows Technical Preview Evaluation Copy. Build 9879.
I have updated my EFI and tried a few restarts and am booting from a CD. No luck yet.
Any help would be muchos appreciated.

Hi bitofagiggle,
I am not familiar with mac machines, based on what I know, there should be more settigns that need to be configured before the installation of Windows, I suggest you contact the manufacturer for further help regarding how to make Windows to upgrade smoothly.

Error 0x80248014 on Windows Update on Windows 10 Technical Preview Enterprise beta build 9926.

Hi
As I download the new ISO and do a software Windows Updates.
I cannot seems to get any software updates at my end. Windows update cannot find any updates for Windows Defender.
My latest Windows 10 Technical Preview version 9926 cannot seems to find any software updates.
I keep getting this error.0x80248014!
I keep getting this error since I have the first Beta Build 9841 and 9879. I did not have the download of 9860.
I wonder there is a missing Windows Update at the Control Panel.
I have to search all over the place where is the Windows Update??? The GUI is very confusing for a First Timer like me!
See my screen capture.

mrdbeta,
Click the Retry button > if you have a Windows defender Update available, it will show up on the list together with a new build such as 9935 Professional. (See my screenshot at the end of the post.)
The system will start installing and when it finishes, it will give you the same error message. That's OK. It shows the error message because it is unable to install the new build which is NOT applicable to
us, the general users. Those new builds, 9931, 9932, 9934, and lately 9935 are meant for MSFT only.
Click Advanced options > click View your updates history. Your most recent Windows Defender update should be listed. If yes, you are OK. Nothing to worry about.
MS is well aware of the mistake. They will get it fixed soon. Please read the excerpt below from Inside Hub......
Windows Insiders who have installed KB3035129 may see reports in the Settings app under Update & recovery that a new preview build is available. Attempts to download the new build result in Error 0x80246017.
KB3035129 included a code change which unintentionally had the side effect of changing targeting for builds, allowing builds that are exclusive to Microsoft employees to appear available. No new builds are available which are newer than 9926 at this point.
We will issue another update shortly to correct the issue and ensure that Windows Insiders are able to successfully get the next build which is made available to you. We apologize for the confusion and thank you for your continued participation
and feedback.
***** In the web, there is a registry modification dealing with this issue. I would suggest that you just wait for MS to sort it out. If you want to try the registry hack, google for it. Use it at your own risk

Updating from Win 10 TP build 9926 to build10049 will destroy linux partitions

hi, i have a grub2 dual boot test system sucessfully running on a 128GB SSD drive with two OS:
Windows 10 Technical Preview x64 en-us build 9926 on one 64GB partition and
Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS Desktop x64 en-us on the last part of 64GB (GRUB Boot Manager Partition, ~48GB EXT4 root partition ,16GB SWAP partition)
everything was running well side by side.
then i tried to update Windows 10 technical preview 9926 to build 10049, by the Windows update (Settings -> Update & Recovery).
during the Installation (after first boot to initiate the Installation 0%..20%) the "updater" was creating an additional ~500MB hidden WinRE partition, unfortunately by overriding the Linux partitions GRUB boot Manager partition and parts
of the Linux ext4 root partition.
PS.: booting is a BIOS based one (not UEFI)
Questions:
any idea, if it is possible to restore the Linux partitions (the parts that wasn't touched by the WinRE partition)
how to prevent destroying existing Linux partitions when i try to redo the Installation and updating next time.

Questions:
any idea, if it is possible to restore the Linux partitions (the parts that wasn't touched by the WinRE Partition)
update to 1.:
only ~20% dataloss, i could rescue ~80% of the data, stored of the broken Linux Partition with use of a data forensic tool.
so not a big deal, it was a test environment, but only annoying, that Windows has broken the Linux partitions without any warning.
PS.: maybe it would be better, if Windows would not steal diskspace from other existing non Windows partitions.
a better practice would be keep all partitions untouched, that is not involved by the win 10 update and shrink only the Win10 partition that is to being updateing by the ammount needed for the WinRE partition and only re-arange the partitiontable
entries (add to primary or extendend table).
so no data loss may occure - maybe the grub boot Manager will be a bit confused, but that can be solved easely.
