Of course, whenever a new build is released, and users start noticing issues and bugs, we write a report article about all of its flaws and problems. So in this article, we’re going to tell you what bothers users running build 14901, and if there’s a way to solve at least some of those issues.

Build 14901: reported problems

As almost every time so far, we start our report with installation problems. If you follow the news about Microsoft’s builds, you probably already guessed this is going to be the first reported issue, since installation problems are common in almost every build. Anyway, a few users complained on Microsoft’s forums that they’ve been unable to download or install build 14901. Unfortunately, there’s no universal solution for all installation problems, but you can try running the WUReset script, which solves various problems related to Windows Update, and it might fix your issue, as well. “I get this error message »> Windows 10 Insider Preview 14901 – Error 0xc0000005. It said to restart. I restarted and it did not install Insider Preview 14901. So I went to all settings. checked for updates, said it was downloading Windows 10 Insider Preview 14901, waited for a little over an hour, then it came up with that message.” Many users have also reported frequent Settings app crashes. Here’s what one of them said: Insiders who have encountered this problem agree this is just a bug in build 14901 and Microsoft should fix it in the next release. However, there’s still no solution for this problem in Windows 10 build 14901, and Microsoft remained silent about it, as well. The latest Windows 10 build also caused some serious problems to a few insiders who tried to installed it. One user has reported on the forums that upon installing build 14901, his tablet doesn’t recognize the internal hard disk anymore. Microsoft’s Engineers actually tried to help with a few ‘basic’ solutions, but unfortunately this problem remained unsolved, as well. SPONSORED Similarly to the previous case, one user said that he received the “We couldn’t update system reserved partition” error upon installing the update: He later said that a simple restart solved the problem, but if you’re also facing this issue, and restarting your computer didn’t help, try with this fix article. And finally, there’s also one issue that’s quite unusual for Windows 10 builds. Namely, one user has reported that once he installs the update, Office starts asking for activation constantly. For this problem, we recommend checking out our article about Office 2016 issue in Windows 10. However, we cannot guarantee that any of the solutions listed in that article will work, since the proper workaround for this issues is still unconfirmed. As you can see, despite the fact that this is the very first build of “the new cycle of Redstone builds,” it isn’t as nearly troublesome as some previous releases, which is very good. However, we still have a lot of Redstone 2 builds in front of us, so we expect many more issues to bother Insiders. But don’t worry, finding and fixing issues is the purpose of the Insider Program, after all. If you encountered some problems that we didn’t mention in this article, feel free to let us know about it in the comment section below. RELATED STORIES YOU NEED TO CHECK OUT:
