Solved My laptop is on a messed up half insider/half non insider build. I don't want to wipe my entire system to fix....any ideas?


What commands do I run? I'm not a shell user.
You don't need to do anything. Malwarebytes did its job. Just relax. Malwarebytes would have told you if you needed to do anything.

You could search for "specific powershell commands" to help explain your concern. Use whichever AI app you think is best. No guarantees of course.
"Not needing to do anything" is not the same as "wanting to know why".

    Thinking about getting an eGpu for this system to take on the road with us.
In previous years, Release Preview was always considered an Insider Channel. Normal users didn't see Monthly Preview updates.

But now you don't need a dedicated Release Preview Channel since everyone has the option to install Preview updates by clicking on "Get the latest updates as soon as they're available". This change removed the old Release Preview as an Insider channel.

Depending on what source the AI is going to scrape answers from, it will find something that is out of date.
Ok this is my definitive answer. That's exactly what is going on. I do have that turned on, on my system. Got it answered...thanks!
