    Just checked my link to the original Thread and it doesn't work. I will see if I can figure out how to do that.

    Another try at the link. Looks like I really botched up my above post.

    Resolved - Anniversary Edition Not Installed

    Update 4 months later:

    The computer has been working fine so I opted to not go any further with attempts to install Version 1709 and planned to replace it with a new computer in the near future.

    Today (December 21), I got a Microsoft notice that the Creator Update was ready to install. It pretty much started on it's own and spent about 4 hours in the process. I was very apprehensive as my previous manual attempts (direct download and install from Microsoft Catalog and then Creation Media) had stalled well into the process and it always reverted back to the state before the upgrade attempt started. To my amazement, the install completed and the computer now has Version 1709 installed. I guess I saved the cost of a new computer. Sometimes procrastination pays off.

    So again, thanks to all who tried to get me squared away several months ago.

    Thanks Christer. I think I got it fixed in Post #2 - I hope.

    Hi Robert, I just got the latest "Insider" build last night (17063.1000) and it started to download at around 5.45pm. I went to bed at 12.30am and left it to finalize the install - so I don't know how long it took!!!
    All was OK this morning and because it's not my main comp, I just leave it to do it's thing when updates come in. This is the longest I've had so far. Merry Xmas.
