Posting your XML may help, if someone were to see something "wrong" off the bat. Did you validate your answer file vs your install.wim using WSIM as asked on Technet? There are times where a completely valid XML works fine on a stock image, yet will generate an error on a customized image.

Concerning what is downloaded for say... ADK5 DISM... how was it tested or determined which files were needed for DISM to work properly? In my experience, you only need two files from ADK for 8.1 to run that DISM on Windows 7: dism.exe dismapi.dll Or is it just "to play it safe" to grab all the DISM related files?

Phones seem to becoming larger than they need to be. I saw someone take one of those out of his pocket in line at a restaurant. He looked silly. Anyways, new phones (like cars) often work really great in the first two days. Report back in 3 months if it is still the same.

Good to know you found a ThinkPad that has a good enough screen to play games on!

Hmmm an idea is you can use a scheduled task to map the drive using the /persistant:no option. When creating a task with an "at startup" or "at logon" trigger you have an option to delay the task from executing See here for more on triggers: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc748841.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396

This probably won't work. The recovery environment in Windows 8.1 is edition locked, at least when concerning the desktop editions. Did your tablet originally come with Windows 8 with Bing or Windows 8.1 with Bing? Can you still boot into Windows?

Welcome to the MSFN!

We can presume that is an option... but since it appears they have removed the "download but let me choose what to install" option, we can't guess at what the final product will look like.

You can now use your old DEC RL02 on your modern PC via USB!

Well, stopping your PC from being automagically updated to Windows 10 sounds fairly simple at this point. Build a cheapo-pc or a VM, install a Server OS on it. Make a DC, join your clients to the domain.

It isn't. KB2990214 is an update to the Windows Update Client. It is a pre-requisite (for now) in order to be able to "update" to Windows 10 when it becomes available. From my understanding (so far) is that KB3035583 is the program that will show the notifications that Windows 10 is available. KB2990214 makes it possible to install it from Windows Update. It also may be that KB2990214 is required for it to show up in the update list? We'll see I guess. PS: KB3035583 was able to be removed with DISM. Since the other one did not show up, I did not know what/how to remove it.

I'm working on a Windows 7 SP1 x86 image and found it has KB3035583 and KB2990214 in it when looking at installed updates. When I mount the image and /GET-PACKAGES, only the KB3035583 on shows up. Is KB2990214 contained inside another update?

I forgot to note this the other day. Embedded OS has a separate installer for .NET Framework (at least 2.0 I know for sure) much like IE. So if I were to need to update an XPe image with .NET Framework updates, I wouldn't go to Windows Update to do it. Those files come from the website that the Embedded OS is downloaded from.

Well... that game was designed for DOS... doesn't it even work with DOSBox at full screen?

Some posts from this thread were moved to a new thread: http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/173780-windows-10-built-in-advertising-discussion/ Try to keep this thread about aeroglass on Windows 10. If you have other things related to Windows 10, it would be better put into the Windows 10 section.

It is becoming apparent that Windows 10 will/may include some built-in advertising space, similar to what has previously been seen with some Office 2013 and 365 installations. Advertising is something that many people do not care for or find intrusive. Some people fear that maybe these ads will be targetted like those run by Google or Facebook. In the Google example, search histories using Google, or activity on any of its sites (G+, Youtube) help to determine what advertisements you see. In some cases, you will get location based ads, such as ads from companies where you live. Facebook's ads are based on what content you create or appears in your profile. You can actually play with this by creating a post and then you will see Facebook load up related ads! In my opinion, if Microsoft were to implement advertisement, it would likely be in relation to its services. What you activity on MS websites were, what you searched for in Bing. I would find it unlikely that they would track your history from IE or what you were doing on other websites or in other browsers! However it is still a small concern (larger to others) who have noticed the trend of MS sneaking in updates disguised as performance or bug fixes, only to be found out that it may contain software to update your Windows to another version. People generally like to stay with what they are comfortable with and do not like the idea of a change being made without their consent or input. This thread is for discussion relating to Windows 10's advertising behaviour. The previous posts were split from another thread so to keep that one on topic. These posts have retained the differing opinions on this, but please make sure to keep the discussion civil!

This already is a problem for people who bought Windows 8 on an OEM computer. Even if they did get or make the recovery DVD... anyone that updated to Windows 8.1 would have to recover back to Windows 8. Then they'd have to fight with Windows Update and the Store to get back up to 8.1/Update 1, etc. To make matters worse, there was some sort of change in between the time Windows 8.1 came out and say... 6 months ago. The recovery becomes "broken" in a way that they can't run it properly. Originally, if you updated to 8.1, you could run recovery/Refresh from the hard disk and get Win 8 back on. Now if you try to do that, the recovery program will alert you that it can't find the recovery image, even if the partition with the WIM is still present. So then it will ask for you to insert the Windows DVD... BUT it won't accept a Windows 8 DVD, it only will take a Windows 8.1 DVD which the end-user wouldn't have. Fortunately, the 8.1 DVD it will take is not entirely picky. You don't need the OEM Recovery DVD, I've also been able to have it use one of the System Builder DVDs. It is possible other ones like Retail or VL would work as well, but the edition needs to be the same. You can't use a Core or Enterprise DVD to recover a Pro installation. Using a different DVD does not change how the OS is licensed (retail, oem, sbk, vl) if you do a refresh. It might if you did the full recovery but that takes a long time so I've never tested it.

You are never free from danger, but for years webmail was always more secure... for a few reasons... Most top flight webmails (gmail, yahoo, hotmail/outlook.com) are designed so that they block certain things. Images, scripts, etc. They also usually have antivirus built-in to scan attachments. They also are driven on user feedback as to what is and what isn't spam. Most will automatically filter into a junk folder where the restrictions on messages are even more severe. It will block everything except for text unless you say otherwise. Outlook (from Office) and Outlook Express had a bad reputation when it came to security FOR YEARS. Their default behaviour was to run anything in the email itself (javascript, active-x controls, etc) once it was opened for viewing. Its another reason why Thunderbird and other such email clients got so popular... they didn't do this. The individual clients had no user-contributed checklist to filter out bad messages, phishing, virus emails, all that stuff. Email certainly has been getting better over the years.

The native resolution for that display, per the link is 3840x2160. According to newegg (presuming it is the correct model) the max resolution is 2560 x 1600. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102940 I do not know whether or not you can get more resolution out of the video card by using different drivers. Looking at this example, there is a performance rating score for an HD 6770 running at 3840x2160, so I would presume it is possible... but maybe not the ideal solution. http://www.game-debate.com/hardware/?gid=1844&graphics=Radeon%20HD%206770%20Crossfire I also read in some spots, that maximum resolution may depend on which port is used to connect, like DisplayPort/HDMI/etc.

In the future if you feel your question would have been better asked in another forum, please PM a moderator an ask that the topic be moved rather than creating a new topic.
