Is it the latest stable version?[/QUOTE]

So far, yes. No more, apparently - at least, so far.

I had updated to 16299.64 the latest version.

This posting is in the Windows Insider section of the Forum.

The latest Insider Preview I have on both of my IP computers is Version 1709 Build 17046.1000.

The latest RTM/Release to Market/Manufacturing I have is Version 1709 Build 16299.64.

It is very important, even critical, to use the proper section of a Forum as the IP version is a test/BETA release, things won't always work the same as in the RTM version. And it is important to know exactly which version a person is running for the same reason, both Version and Build numbers.

What Bighorn says is absolute imperative.

 

[davehc]

Agreed also. The thread, including one from me, became a little confusing a few posts away. I would say that, now the build numbers are drifting apart, it may not be so prevalent from this time. The moderators will have to keep a close eye on it, as it can be very confusing for members.

But isn't it fun!!!!

I have no idea how complicated the coding would be, but maybe some kind of flag or popup, if a user strays into this section??

That would be nice but even nicer would be recoding users to recognize/learn the various Versions of Win10 available and supported. The list at the lower part of this page is quite helpful for those wanting to know:

[davehc]

I don't see that helping. It may be a question of how a user arrives on the forum. That would be according to his interests. In my case, for example, I am only interested in new posts. When I open the site, this is what I see. I scarcely look at the , almost impossibly to read underscript, which says which particular section it is in. if I see a comment, as in Post #40, I tend to plunge in and answer it. To be fair, even looking back from that post, it It not at a glance, that easy to discern that the discussions are concerning Insider builds. Build Numbers, to the ordinary user seeking for help and info, would be meaningless.

Sorry. Just looked at the link. I thought it was concerned with the insider builds. This section/forum.

I just posted that for information, the IP/Insider Preview carries its own expiration date when putting winver in the Windows key + R dialog box. On both of my IP computers with Version 1709 Build 17046.1000 it is 07/02/18.
