Preview builds Slow or Fast options available again

Just when I thought 9926 would be the last preview build until the RTM version is released, today, after installing update KB3035129, Slow or Fast options are available again.
I also understand that build 9931 and 9932 are offered to MSFT.
Does that mean we are going to get another preview build before the rtm is released ?

More than one in fact. I can't find the link but someone from MSFT stated
that the only reason we had to wait so long between 9879 and 9926 was due
to the holiday break and that we'd be seeing more frequent releases moving
forward. Also, if you watched the live stream event you would have seen
that JoeB referred to/demonstrated loads of feature that aren't in 9926 and
that we could expect to seem them in future builds in the coming months.
Not sure where you'd get the impression that we weren't getting any more
builds before RTM.

Failed to install the new preview build, please try again later 0xC1900204

I upgraded in-place from Windows 8.1 to Build 9926. I am unable to upgrade past 9926.
Windows Update finds the new preview build on both fast and slow rings. It downloads it successfully. Upon attempting to install, it fails.
I get a screen overlay with the message:
Can't update to Windows 10 Technical Preview
Sorry, it looks like this PC can't run Windows 10 Technical Preview. This might be because the Users or Program Files folder is being redirected to another partition.
Closing the overlay and returning to the "Update & recovery" screen, I see the error in red: Failed to install the new preview build, please try again later 0xC1900204

Hi Isilverman,
As we have Windows 10 install Media available at hand, might we consider to do a dual boot of Windows 10 and Windows 8.1?
Based on the information you posted, it seems to be that the current Windows 8.1 environment is not suitable to do an Upgrade.
Another thing I would like to share is the information listed in the thread below:
Problems with disk space and installation time in builds 10041
and 10049 of Windows 10 Technical Preview

Hi everyone from the Build 2015 conference happening right now in San Francisco! If you haven’t already, check out Terry’s blog post about all the Windows 10 announcements we made today. If you’re at Build this week or at Ignite in Chicago next week – keep your eye out for me and say hello!
Today we have a new build available to both the Fast and Slow ring for Windows Insiders (that means we’ll have ISOs available too for those of you who like a clean install.) With this build we continue to evolve the features and design for Windows 10, and you’ll see a lot of subtle changes and improvements, many of which were influenced directly by Windows Insiders. One of those changes is the reintroduction of some Aero Glass elements in the UI, but there are many more things throughout the product as well. We continue to use your feedback directly day to day in how our feature teams operate, and we hope that Windows 10 will be the best version of Windows yet because you had a direct hand in its creation.
One other subtle change that you’ll notice is that we’ve changed how we talk about the builds from “Technical Preview” to “Insider Preview” to reflect the importance of the Windows Insider community in how we’re building Windows 10.
And speaking of Windows Insiders, we were super excited to host the 10 winners of our Windows Insiders to Campus contest in Redmond last week and hear their thoughts on the program and the product. We’ll share more on that soon.
Here is what’s newSome of the things that Joe demoed on stage earlier today during the Build keynote are not yet included in this build and will be in future builds. But we still have a bunch of new stuff for you to check out!
General UX improvements: We made a bunch of UX improvements with the last build and you’ll see even more in this build. For example, you’ll notice a new Live Tile animation for Start in addition to in addition to some performance and stability improvements for Live Tiles.
We’ve done work to better support high DPI displays. And we know many Windows Insiders are running multi-mon setups – often with 2 monitors with different DPI. You will start to see some work we’re doing to make sure core UX components in Windows scale correctly on both your monitors so things look nice regardless of DPI.
We’ve also heard loud in clear that many Windows Insiders want to see Aero Glass from Windows 7 make a comeback. We’ve been working out how to satisfy this request, and are trying some things out with this build to see how you like them. We’re running a little A/B test with this build. 50% of you will normal transparency on the Start menu and taskbar while the other 50% will see a blur effect on the Start menu and taskbar (like frosted glass). If Windows Insiders really like the blur effect, we will add it to more areas and even consider making it the default instead of standard transparency. Which one did you get? Send us feedback about it via the Windows Feedback app!
Even more improvements to Continuum: We’re continuing to make Continuum better and invest in a simplified taskbar. Additionally when you close an application in Tablet mode, we take you back to the Start screen instead of the desktop as you would expect when using a tablet. You will see general polish on snapping, and the shared divider between two snapped windows now let’s you adjust the size.
Multi-tasking improvements: We’re continuing to refine and complete our mulit-tasking experience with Windows 10. Check out Alt-Tab, Task-View, and Snap Assist. Snap Assist also now supports the ability to close a window during Snap Assist.
New default Windows sounds: We’ve heard a lot of feedback from people that they want some fresh system sounds for Windows 10. Check them out and let us know what you think.
Visual refresh for Cortana: You will see a visual refresh for Cortana in this build that makes the experience feel more ingrained into the overall Windows experience. Start and Cortana are now more tightly integrated. As you start to search for an app from within Start, Cortana can seamlessly take over and bring back the right result. The new Windows split view control has been added to Cortana’s left rail, offering quick access to key Cortana functionality like the Notebook, Reminders or Feedback on how Cortana’s doing. This split view control helps anchor Cortana to the rest of the Windows UI and provides navigation consistent with many other Windows first party applications.
New experiences in Cortana: We are making available some new and updated experiences in Cortana powered by Bing Instant Answers. Cortana will aim to answer your question while you’re still typing. Here are a few questions you can try:
Weather – “Seattle Weather”
Finance – “MSFT stock”
Dictionary – “define astounding”
Calculator – “48*92”
Flight Status – “UA 238”
Reference – “how tall is brad pitt”
Showtimes – “movies near me”
Tech Help – “memory in my computer”
Time Zone – “time in London”
Unit Conversion – “42 ft in meters”
Chit Chat – “tell me a joke”
Updates for the Music and Video Preview apps: We’ve also shipped updates to these apps. The Music Preview app (3.6.999.0) has some UX improvements including a more immersive Now Playing experience with a true full screen mode. With the Video Preview app (3.6.999.0) – you can download movies, TV shows, and TV seasons and check progress, pause, resume, cancel the download. You can also download, delete, and even re-download videos as many times as you want on up to three devices (we’re planning to increase the number of devices you can download content too!). Closed captioning for purchased content now appears. You will see a list of new features when you first launch these app after each update!
Xbox app April 2015 update: The Xbox app for Windows 10 has been updated (your version number should be 4.4.9014.0 or higher) with new features like Game DVR for PC games, screenshots, a Live Tile, user profiles, and real-name sharing. Oh and the drivers for Xbox controllers are now included with Windows 10, so you no longer have to download and install controller drivers on Windows 10. For more on this month’s Xbox app for Windows 10 update as well as the new Avatars app – read this blog post.
Windows Store Beta improvements: We’re excited about delivering a single unified Store experience in Windows 10 which we’re talking more about this week at Build. We’ve made some improvements to the Store Beta which is now a blue tile instead of grey. Xbox Live games should be working and so are in-app purchases. Apps you purchased on a PC running Windows 8.1 will now show up in the Store Beta on Windows 10 as owned (and vice-versa). We’re also expanding the Store Beta from 41 markets with the addition of these new markets: Afghanistan, Åland Islands, Albania, Algeria, American Samoa, Andorra, Angola, Anguilla, Antarctica, Antigua and Barbuda, Armenia, Aruba, Azerbaijan, The Bahamas, Bangladesh, Barbados, Belize, Benin, Bermuda, Bahrain, Bhutan, Bolivia, Bonaire, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Botswana, Bouvet Island, Cyprus, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Georgia, Ghana, Guatemala, Iceland, Iraq, Kazakhstan, Malta, Pakistan, Qatar, Sri Lanka, Jordan, Lebanon, Nicaragua, Oman, Panama, Puerto Rico, Paraguay, Trinidad and Tobago, Uganda, Venezuela.
Discovering features and apps in Windows 10: We are investing in easy “bite-sized” learning and discovery experiences so that users can get more out of Windows 10. This ranges from tips and tricks on the Lock screen, to helping users discover high quality apps through Start, the Lock screen and Cortana. Be confident that you won’t miss out on new features and enjoy the ease of having high quality apps curated for you. It’s optional, and if anything doesn’t strike your fancy, you can provide feedback directly, such as whether you like an image or an app. These new experiences will be rolling out over time, so you may not see them in your market yet.
Here are some things we fixed
You can now launch Win32 (desktop) apps from the Start menu again. Sorry about this bug!
You should be able to download music in the Xbox Music and Music Preview apps.
When you minimize an app playing audio, it should continue playing in the background.
Here are some known issues
Developers cannot enable Developer Mode in the Settings app for installing and testing apps on this build. We’ll enable this in an upcoming build. In the meantime, you will need enable your device for development using the Group Policy Editor.
There is an issue in this build preventing some games from playing in full screen mode. We’re working to get a fix out via WU as soon as possible.
The People app continues to crash. We’re planning to release an update for the People app through the Store Beta that fixes this.
We hope you’ll agree that 10074 has some nice improvements and is another step forward towards delivering a great Windows 10 release. Please put it through the paces and keep sending us feedback on the things that you like and the things you want us to keep working on using the Windows Feedback app. I hope that you’ll also download the development tools released at Build and will build some terrific Universal Windows apps as well!
Thanks,

Hey ,
I hope someone can help.. been trying to upgrade from 9841 to 9860 for the last few days.. and I cant seem to get the preview build download part to work..
Seems like "80246017 Flight Settings Failure Content Download Error: Download failed" is the main error (more logs below)
And it doesn't seem like(from other blog posts) there are any manual downloads (ISO, .EXE's) so I'm stuck.
I know I could possibly do a full "clean" re-install of 9841 and then upgrade to 9860 but I really want to find out why its not working..
Cheers

Hi,
I had this same issue and tried many things to fix it. I finally found a fix with a small registry edit.
Open command prompt under admin and follow these steps (which I found here:
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_tp-winipp/error-code-0x80246017-when-trying-to-download-new/b188df4f-8e7a-443a-b584-61c4d59407d8)
reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsSelfHost\Applicability" /v "BranchName" /d "fbl_release" /t REG_SZ
/f
reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsSelfHost\Applicability" /v "ThresholdRiskLevel" /d "low" /t REG_SZ /f
reg delete "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsSelfHost\Applicability" /v "ThresholdInternal" /f
reg delete "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsSelfHost\Applicability" /v "ThresholdOptedIn" /f
After you have done that open regedit and navigate to Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsSelfHost\Applicability
If there is a folder called "recovered from" delete it. Then open up Windows Update in PC settings and go to preview builds and click Check Now
This worked for me. Hopes it works for you to.

Failed to install the new preview build, please try again later. 0xC1900107

I'm trying to upgrade Windows 10 TP for Enterprise to the new build 8460, but I keep getting the error message
Failed to install the new preview build, please try again later. 0xC1900107
I don't find any reference to that error code. I've seen similar reports in the forum, but with different error codes and with the message "Failed to upgrade" rather than "Failed to install". I haven't played with the reg keys on this
system.
The event viewer shows the following event:
Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0xC1900107: fbl_release 9860 Enterprise.
The upgrade to a non-Enterprise device started at the same time went through without problems.
Alberto

Hi Russell,
What’s the situation now?
There would be a cause that the upgrade is running background, so a retry would fail in this situation.
You can check the action log in C:\$Windows.~BT\source\panther\setupact.log
Check the time line to see if it is running for upgrade.

Hello, I'm trying to update my Windows 10 to the new build and it's not possible in my computer.
In PC Settings\Preview Build I get this error as a result after trying to install the new update:

Now I have different error 0x80240024

Hi,
Did you find the error during downloading or installing process? Have you cleared the SoftwareDistribution folder and check the issue again?
It would be better if you can check the event viewer and windowsupdate.log (%windir%\Windowsupdate.log), find related information, upload the log to OneDrive for further analysis.

Failed to install the new preview build, please try again later. 0x80070003
I have installed all updates and I am a full administrator of this machine. If someone could fix this I would be very happy.

Hi bgelbach,
Have you downloaded the 9879 build?
Before Windows setup runs, it would do some check on perquisites, one thing is space check.
When the new build is downloaded, it is located under C:\windows\software distribution\download
folder, which is about 2.7G. Make sure you have enough space for installation.
If everything goes well, it would extract files to C:\$WINDOWS.~BT folder.

Windows 10 Technical Preview Build 10052 now available for phones

yes, OS Version 10.0.12534.59 is build 10052. unfortunately, I don't know why the build number is different with os version. it is very confusing. you can send feedback about it.

I am missing the Preview Builds option...

My Windows 10 installations are all missing the preview builds option and the build versions are not updating. Do I have a group policy setting in the way?

That seems actually like good design from Microsoft. I don't want a non-admin user to have any way of upgrading their PC - that should be solely reserved for admins. And it's not like the option even appears for the user, so they won't know what
they're missing.
In the Modern UI, there's no way to elevate (I believe that's the word you're looking for) user's rights - you either have it or you don't. So all one can do is show what you can access, and hide the rest.

Windows Preview Build Settings Missing/Unavailable from Build 10049

The Preview Build settings has been missing from 10049. I have tried doing Windows Update registry change to enable that option in the Windows Update through settings and also through the control panel but still no success. Please tell me how can i look
upto that?

The Windows Registry version trick doesnt work in build 10049 and after runnning the registry script also there is no windows update option available. You cant just manually select updates to install. Its really a tough job updating your computer.
Moreover, the concept of fast rings and slow rings when a product is under development is useless as the latest updates should be processed simultaneously for everyone and the users should be allowed to download the ISO of the latest builds released on fast
rings via windows update. The windows update mechanisms should be changed.

How do i update preview build 9841 to 9926

I wan to update from preview build 9841 to 9926 without downloading iso .. is it possible? I cant download gb of iso again my net is so slow .. is it can update?

Hi Donsreeraj,
If you don't want to take use of Windows 10 9926 ISO, you may go to PC Settings, Update and recovery, Preview builds and click the Check Now button to go get it now, which also will download a large file.
For reference:
January build now available to the Windows Insider Program
