As title says, I cannot upgrade to it.  I am in the Insider Program, and I installed the "Windows 10 Insider Preview", but nothing pops up in my Windows update.  I don't get any errors, nothing.  I looked around and could not find anything relating to it.  Does anyone have any idea?

Are you in the "Fast" portion of the program?

 

Under Windows Update>Advanced Options then its under the bottom half.

 

Takes about to day to recognize your change in that portion.

 

10166 just released too.

Why would you want to install a unfinished beta build of an OS that may not work when the final build is releasing in a few weeks? :P 

 

Anyways, try using the ISO from here

Just download the latest ISO and there's an option to keep all your files, apps and settings.

That is not what I am asking.  I am very aware that you can upgrade by using the .iso, but I wish to do this through Windows Update.

I am not on Windows 10 yet, I am trying to do so from Windows 7.

I am tired of waiting.  I have it on a work computer, and it works fine, so now I want it on my home computer.  Same thing about the .iso I said above.

I believe since its not full OS yet, you can't just upgrade it within another version of Windows. You must do fresh install for it.
