No windows 10 app on my Asus Transformer Book T100TA-DK065H 32Gb

[LosArrogantes]

Hello,


I found a lot of information with people who are having win10 preview, or the app for win 10 reservation.

Well, i have a Asus Transformer Book T100TA-DK065H 32Gb, but the 2 updates needed to getting the win10 app doesnt come up in my windows update...

Why i am not receiving these updates ?
Is this because my free disk space is to low ? (i have after a clean install +/-12.5Gb free disk space)

Or is there another problem ?

I want to receive the win10 update next week! ;-)

Thx in advance!

Welcome to the forum

There are a few reasons that update notification doesn't appear. I have 3 production systems in my office and never have seen it on one of the 3. I have a customer with 7 systems and none have it. In theory any Windows 8.1 system should have seen the no0tification however, according to Microsoft, you need 16GB of free space to install the upgrade. There may be other reasons, but that's my best guess.

The 'Get Windows 10' app was installed as part of the recommended Windows update KB3035583.

Search under the list of 'Recommended' updates for ‘Update for Microsoft Windows (KB3035583)’ and click Install. If ‘Update for Microsoft Windows (KB3035583)’ is not listed you can also try clicking ‘Check for updates.’

I don't think that's it either. I have seen several posts that 3 or more KB patches needed to be installed and it still hasn't made a difference. The only thing that makes any sense is that it has not appeared on entire groups of systems so there may be an app installed on those systems that could create a problem. Bitdefender is a known problem as is older versions of VMWare

My primary production system hasn't displayed the notification and it has every available patch. In theory if you run the Windows 8.1 compatibility utility it should show you where you might have an issue, despite the fact that you may already be on 8.1

From what I know, it should still be available through WU sometime after the 29th.

Keep in mind that July 29 is just the start date of release but most people won't be getting the update on day 1 or even a month later... They're going to slowly push out the update over the next few months, with those who participated in the Insider Program being at the front of the line!

Win10 update options are only "Automatic" and "Prompt to schedule restart".
This change is stupid and may be a good reason not to upgrade.

I would have to disagree on that reasoning, as it ensures consistency across the platform and counters the tendency of many to not install patches, security updates, etc. that end up leaving them more vulnerable and MS having to deal with more tech support than needed... While delaying installing a security update just leaves you open to unnecessary attack threats. So, regardless, updates have always been part of the life of using Windows but keeping it consistently up to date means less unnecessary risks, more rapidly closing zero day vulnerabilities and helping to ensure that there are fewer chances that an already infected system can infect other systems, etc.

It also helps keep the updates small rather than doing a large batch of them at a time because you haven't kept up...

Besides, if there was a issue then the troubleshooting part of the update system lets you hide updates you don't want to install and thus prevent them from being auto installed... So you still have options... Never mind 3rd party solutions that are bound to become available anyway, and this mainly helps the lay people who don't know how to properly run their systems to be better protected and less a risk to the rest of us as it makes them less likely to become infections points/bots, etc.

While the rest of us Geeks will still be able to customize the system to our desires and whims...

Well, after yesterday waiting, i decided after reading to uninstall the KB3035583 update and reinstall it, and it worked!!!
Directly after installing i got the reserve win10 app, and reserved direct! ;-)


But yesterday evening, the update didn't start updating, now i'm at work but i hope this evening it will start updating... ;-)

Well, I did have the windows icon on my t100, but when I powered up today, it's no longer there....
