Is it possible to get a screenshot or picture of these messages? I don't want to jump to conclusions, as I've seen these types of messages before but do not know if they are what you are experiencing: 1. Refresh from Win8.1 may show a message to insert the installation media if the system originally came with Windows 8.0. 2. Some third party recovery programs may show a "disk is locked" message and prevent installation.

The boot process for Windows 10 depends on which mode it is booted. For that program, Noel, does it work in both legacy and UEFI modes?

AFAIK it is fixed if using UEFI boot and an image is in the BGRT. However the only boards that provide a public tool (that I am aware of) to add a picture to BGRT is Intel.

dypsis, please read the forum rules.

Everytime I see the word hogwash, I heard it in my head as spoken by Cobra Commander: https://youtu.be/rDPAuDwxQD4?t=1m4s

It looks like it was due to compression? https://twitter.com/jarwidmark/status/634421040421203969

It seems like a lot of work... why not use imagex.exe to rename it?

With DISM you can deploy and re-capture an image to effectively change its name.

What folder? Also I don't understand the anger about where DirectX files are located...

And hopefully some future update doesn't change it back!

Yes the DPI setting is only for Windows itself, not setup/WinPE. If you know the size of a US quarter, then you can see how a UEFI only tablet looks like with the Gimagex HTA that I have in my signature: While the text specified by the HTA scaled "appropriately" I can tell you that must custom imaging GUI (which is not shown) is super tiny. As long as this remains to be true, I will eventually have to learn how to program my GUI to scale as well. So I feel your pain.

So? Give users the option to disable it if it doesn't look good to them. It reminds me of a fairly recent change on Yahoo's website. The sports section had a dark background and their user feedback indicated it was hard to read. So they changed it to a white background. No notice, no option to change if you want to use dark vs light background. Yahoo's position was that the majority of feedback indicated users preferred the white background so it became that for everyone!

It is by design since WinPE4. You'll need to rewrite your GUI to handle the different scaling that may occur. This was the answer I got when I opened a support case with MS in 2013. Here was my first topic about it (see also the Technet link for more info) http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/162510-unable-to-set-resolution-in-winpe4/ Here is the challenge you may face while working with UEFI mode on a 4k display: http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/173469-uefi-installation-on-a-4k-native-display/

That is a difficult read! I am going to guess that one of the reasons was that they filed Patent1 which was accepted and then Patent2 which was accepted. Upon further review, Patent2 is now being rejected because it is too similar to Patent1?

I just realised, reading about the BYOD link... that MS has made it impossible for any company that deals with the healthcare industry to have a computer in their office running Windows 10.

jofkata81, your post was too big. I moved it off to a pastebin for now. In the future when you need to post huge logs like this, use a paste site like I did for your example, or attach text file to your post with the forum's attachment system.

Already found a situation where a Windows 7 Home Premium PC had started downloading Windows 10 automatically. User has stopped the download, but now the OS can't install other updates as they are in queue. https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/aff8119f-f5e7-41b2-8723-951d010917a9/windows-update-is-forcing-a-win-10-update-on-my-win-7?forum=win10itprosetup

You'll need a Windows 10 DVD of course! But where did you get the install.esd from, the free upgrade? You can save a lot of work by downloading the entire thing using the MediaCreationTool. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/media-creation-tool-install

I was expecting a more verbose error that that. The determination must be made whether this is a DNS issue, or you are being rejected by a mail server on your network. Are the DNS servers the same for each login type (AD vs Local)?

Is the question, how can you fool Windows Update into thinking that an update is already installed?

That is typically how the Windows firewall works already. The problem with that approach is... how does the firewall know that the program was actually installed by you and not a malware?

If this is the case, then I would expect it to be the same as how Edge browser works, as it doesn't use Hosts. I suspect it goes directly to DNS, which gives a different type of opportunity when it comes to blocking those connections.

So to summarize, you are seeing similar speeds of the USB adapter on both systems?

I know this is a standard practice, but is this actually necessary in a situation where you are shutting down the computer? dim objShellset objShell = CreateObject("shell.application")objshell.ShutdownWindowsset objShell = nothing^ above, setting objShell to nothing... not actually necessary because either the shutdown sequence will kill the application/script or the fact that the script immediately ends?Just a conversation topic. Code sample from here: http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/174021-startisback-10/page-9?p=1105751#entry1105751

I use Palemoon at home and don't have the issue, but my version is much older. If you are blocking any URLs, make sure you allow ajax.googleapis.com, as the forum software uses something from there.
