According to Gabe Aul’s post on Blogging Windows: “Over the past few days we’ve been preparing our release pipelines and processes, and this build is one step closer to what customers will start to receive on 7/29.” Microsoft has stopped making new builds, and has not officially declared this the RTM. But, instead the company is making update packages for this build, 10204. This information comes from a trusted source inside the company and which Paul Thurrott wrote about. This is how Paul explains it in a recent post on his site thurrott.com: Notice in the screenshot below that this build is called TH1 Core 10240 – which we assume stands for the “Threshold” codename for the OS.
While Microsoft is not officially calling this the RTM (Release to Manufacturing) it is in fact what will be going out to various vendors like Dell, Lenovo, etc. However, from now until the actual release date on the 29th (and beyond), more updates and features will continue to be added. Apparently there will not be ISO versions available for this version, but they should be coming after the official release. We’re just downloading it now, and will let you know as soon as we are able. If you are an Insider, download the new build, and let us know how it goes for you in the comments below. Anyone else experiencing this issue. Other OTA updates have been successful. Currently running build 10166. I had a similar problem with 10166 when it came out. It hung at 0% 3 reboots, and 1 full system shutdown did the trick. Thanks! Any suggestions? Comment
