I've encountered an unexpected but reproducible issue when using the DTS PlayFi app (used for streaming to a Rotel Tuner/Streamer). When I open the app the desktop background gets a vertical stripe appear on it. Nothing else is affected, just the desktop. Closing PlayFi sees the line vanish.

I got the same Edge message the other day but it seemed to coincide with a browser update. Curiously the evening before I was using In Private mode to look at some weather data from a different country and Edge popped a notice up asking to confirm my regional location. I ignored it and thought...

Same. I have a Nokia 2230 which is around 14 years old, PAYG and £20 credit lasts me all year. If someone wants me they know where I am. When I go out of the door I want to leave all that behind. Not at all. We'll change all this come the revolution.

This is probably documented somewhere but I see file associations for .jpg and .png etc seem to have changed. When I take a screen Snip and go to open the image it now opens within Snipping Tool. I know I can change them in settings but it came as a surprise.

That's an interesting one. I see the same both in Settings and in Control Panel. Some program installs for me do not appear in Control Panel but do in Settings. I clean installed from an ISO on the 18th June 29 to 29610.1000 and because I seem to have a hardware ID block on updates I used the...

I got a popup questionnaire from MS today on how easy I thought installation was, were there too many steps, did anything cause concern etc etc. I mentioned that the biggest annoyance for me is that initial updates such as video driver and network drivers seem to load and initialise during...

Thanks. The history to this is that I started the 29500 Future Platform branch as soon as it was announced several months back. That was not a clean instal but was just a case of switching channels as per Microsoft instructions as I recall. I'd been on Dev up to that point. All was good...

Does anyone know how common it is to apparently be under a 'hardware ID block' with insider builds? As a final test I installed 29610.000 as a 100% clean install using Microsoft's own ISO. The issue of not receiving further builds started a couple of builds before that one and yes, there was an...

Just seen a news feed on this: MSN

Thanks @Edwin I feel I've gone way down the rabbit hole in this one. Its frustrating to not be able to find any reason. If its a block because of some compatibility issue then that's fine, its just I would like to know one way or another. I'm on 29610 now but only by clean installing from an...

Thank you @OAT and @fg2001gf11F I've been hunting for info on how to tell if an Insider Build is being blocked by Microsoft for specific hardware or whether I might just have some configuration issue. That folder was something I turned up in the hunt along with lots and lots of other stuff to...

Could anyone running this build please have a quick look at this folder and see if there is any content in there. I believe you should see something in there if your build is approved for flighting, bin files, device info etc etc. Do you have content in there or not? Mine is empty and all...

And I just got this today as well:

Same. I clean installed this build too.

Actually yes and I could not get it to work either. I was attempting a clean install. I made the ISO using UUPDUMP this morning and used Rufus to make the USB. I kept being returned to the Windows Recovery options when I tried to boot from it. Tried a few times. In the end I ran setup.exe from...
