So a while ago I installed windows 10 insider preview pro x64 onto my "new" daily computer as the only os.
It updated itself mabey once. It was running build 10162.  Last night I downloaded the install media to a USB drive. (To preform upgrades) Today I got board and then curious so I ran set up.exe from the flash drive. I clicked through the couple of options and its UPGRADING!

I don't know what's going to happen.
I'll post images as they come.
If anyone has read the EULA, is Microsoft going to burn me at the stake?

[attachment deleted by admin to conserve space]Why would they ? ?   They are giving it away...If you were registered as an Insider, and your existing builds were supplied through that program, your install should continue to be activated as long as you remain a member of the Insider program.

You don't need to "upgrade" from that final Preview build to the released version because the two are identical.

Doesn't the build number show up in the command prompts first line when you open it?

What surprised me, and caused the suspission to post, was that it went from insider preview to just pro.

There is no insider preview build of 10240 because that build was the RTM build.

Installations of build 10240 can have either Insider or regular licensing status.

I was under the impression that they would all list "Windows 10 Pro"

The crux of it is this:

    Do you want to continue as a Windows Insider and keep getting preview builds after 7/29?
    Or do you want to upgrade your Genuine Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 system that has been getting Windows 10 Insider Preview builds to the 7/29 release and stop being an Insider?

“I want to continue as a Windows Insider!” If you want to continue as a Windows Insider past 7/29 there is nothing you need to do. You’re already opted in and receiving builds in the Fast or Slow ring depending upon your SELECTION. This is prerelease software and is activated with a prerelease key. Each individual build will expire after a time, but you’ll continue to receive new builds so by the time an older prerelease build expires you’ll have received a new one. Since we’re CONTINUING the Windows Insider Program you’ll be able to continue receiving builds and those builds will continue to be activated under the terms of the Windows Insider Program. We provide ISOs for these builds for recovery from any significant problems, but they are still pre-release software. As part of the program we’ll upgrade Insiders to what is for all intents and purposes the same build as what other customers will get on 7/29, but that will be just another build for Insiders, and those who stay in the program will simply get the next build after as well.

“I want to opt out of the Windows Insider Program on 7/29.” If you decide to opt-out of the program and upgrade to the 7/29 build you will be subject to exactly the same terms and conditions that govern the offer that was extended to all Genuine Windows 7 and 8.1 customers. This is not a path to attain a license for Windows XP or Windows Vista systems. If your system upgraded from a Genuine Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 license it will remain activated, but if not, you will be required to roll back to your previous OS version or acquire a new Windows 10 license. If you do not roll back or acquire a new license the build will eventually expire.
