So no Windows Embedded 7 or 8.1 on those platforms either.

That's sad to hear. Do you think you might end up releasing it or the source under GPL or something similar, so that people may continue to use it? Or, have you considered finding another person or party to take the project over from you? Just some ideas.

It is difficult to help someone troubleshoot a network issue if they do not post more information. You are working with the private side of the network, you may be using 10.x.x.x or 192.x.x.x. It would be nice to be able to see a simple network map. What router is it? Are you using an IP address in the same subnet that the router hands out in DHCP but not within the scope?

I can say that the ones that look like donuts (doughnut) are the wait/busy cursor. In previous OS it was an hourglass or "egg timer" as I've heard it called. I'm not sure about the other two you outlined, but the small-to-large circle progression makes me think of touchscreen cursor.

A biometric pattern cannot be changed on YOU (except through injury) but it can be changed in the system. Nearly all articles relating to authentication security take aim at the wrong thing. It isn't the username or password that is the problem, it is the authentication system. It doesn't matter what you use for your password is if someone can get into the system using another method besides standard login. There is always more than 1 door.

Yes you are correct. While it should be so simple as what Dencorso said, in reality the post editor does not behave that way. It should work like the one on the Technet forum, but even it shares other quirks such as trying to make everything you typed into a link. But even so, it seems the text as it appears in the editor box is fine, keeping in single space. Yet the text as it appears is somewhere between single spaced and double spaced (shift+enter vs enter).

I doubt this would happen.

TVs in the garbage. ;_;

Windows 10 does not remove the pre-existing partitions when an upgrade is done, it just removes the BCD entries to be able to boot it. The 30 days thing, is only relating to the uninstall option that appears in the Recovery page on Windows 10. A user who had upgraded to Windows 10 at the last minute, then got the anniversary update, would have seen that option disappear anyways. There was a case with Windows 8.1 update from 8.0, on MBR disk, it would over-write the recovery "boot" partition, but it would leave the recovery image partition alone. In EFI scenario, the update would make a second recovery partition instead, leaving both original recovery partitions alone.

FFAStrans comes with all the licenses already, I haven't checked your download but you would need to make sure yours has those as well. Is there a reason why you have not posted this to their forum? It may be something that they are interested in as well.

TOR has not been "Safe" for many years. I've always seen it as a "use at your own risk" type of system.

I take it that you initiated the install from the Office365 portal? Also do you know what the version of Office is that you are trying to install?

For some reason your post reminds me of this guy: What is funny is that while it may be possible to do all sorts of things in a motion/voice based system (and surely more in the future) you can be assured that whoever made that environment spent hours on a keyboard!

Removed links to files. Please see forum rules, 1b in particular.

Many people skip releases. History is repeating. The same thing when people skipped Vista and went from XP to 7 is people who skipped 8 and went from 7 to 10. What they miss are the changes in those skipped OSes. I see it from the other side, companies that want to do something with their new OS, and you have to say "oh but no, it doesn't work like that anymore" and then they ask, when did that happen? You can honestly say "years ago" in that version of Windows that they skipped.

Is your server setup up with dynamic or static IPs?

Search the registry for the GUID, may help narrow it down.

I had to get clarification. MS like to release things without documentation. The thing I downloaded was an update to 14393 and doesn't do anything substantial to 10586. So again, to use 14393 in manufacturing, I have to totally start over AGAIN with a new set of images!

I think I misunderstood Kel's post. Anyways, moving this to vLite section...

It can't be. The file you attached is a vLite session.ini.

Do you mean that KB3176927 doesn't update a 10586 to 14393? I am working on that now, and the download is 800MB but only have the 16MB file for DISM to put in my image. I did this already without error, but nothing seems changed.

I guess as long as you can afford it. Quad-core CPUs are $200+ these days. You can also maybe save some bucks by not getting a K type, especially if you aren't going to do any overclocking.

Voice Recognition had its own flap, 15-20 years ago. It was not so popular due to how much work you have to do to get it working properly. Basically, the computer can't understand what you say because people do not speak their own language in textbook fashion. There was some Star Trek voice recognition software at one point, as well as the Dragon product. Where you teach the software how you talk, so that it can recognize that it is you talking and not just anyone. Just like in the TV show! Of course you can talk to your computer now, but companies seem to have skipped the voice recognition and training portion of the technology. Now it is more like the robot people you talk to on the automated phone call, that say "sorry, I did not get that" or "I didn't understand you." Cortana seems to be just like the voice thing in the XBox. It isn't personal at all, just a receptacle for sound. It doesn't know your voice or can tell the difference between you and someone else. In the old voice recognition software, once the system knew your voice, you could make it so only you could give it commands. There wouldn't have been any "Xbox turn off" moments while playing Call of Duty if that had been the case.
