That explains a lot, especially when you look into the soapbox...
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.
"I don't know, extraterrestrial?"
"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."

Last evening, i decided to upgrade my home laptop to the Windows 10 Creators Update (it was already running an earlier version Win 10).
I started the Windows 10 Upgrade assistant, the download completed, installation got started too & completed but during the final process of now finally configuring the updates, my battery power went off (i wasn't on the mains supply) & the laptop shut down before finalizing the update configuration.
To day morning, i start the machine & i get i message that its restoring to the previous version of windows i had, no problem there.
I launch the windows 10 upgrade assistant hoping to restart the installation (not the download) of the Windows 10 Creators Update but no, it now want to re-download the whole damn thing.
Any one know where on my machine the Windows 10 Upgrade assistant stored what ever it successfully downloaded yesterday so i can re-start my installation there with out waiting another several hours downloading Windows 10 Creators Update again?
Can the installation be restarted with out re-downloading?

Not as far as I know; certainly I could understand a full re-install option, as it doesn't know where it failed (or why) - since the power failed it could have corrupted anything it was doing. The restore will overwrite all interim changes to get you back to a working setup, so there is nothing to continue from.
It's possible that the download will be pretty short though, it depends how much of the original update file(s) it had left undeleted when it failed. But if it's in doubt, I'd restart the download from scratch just to be on the safe side.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

I had that impression with most Windows versions in the last ten years.

If you're going to have to get the files re-downloaded anyway, just get the ISO from MSDN and run the installer from within Windows. The upgrade process is practically the same, plus if you ever have the need to reinstall from scratch, you'll have the latest and greatest image already available and ready to go. Not to mention anything about re-downloading from additional machines.

Actually, this is strongly backed by the fact that i'm even downloading from a low bandwidth region. Over several hours of waiting & the download is just at 43% now.
Cancelled the damn thing & started the media creation tool now to download the ISO over night. Third world problems!
I hope what i will eventually get is worthy the suffering i have endured

As someone who can only get 5mbps DSL, this is exactly why I download and archive just about every installer I've ever used. Storage is cheap. My time isn't.

An airplane was about to crash. There were 4 passengers on board, but only 3 parachutes. The 1st passenger said, "I am Cristiano Ronaldo, the best Football player. Real Madrid and my millions of fans need me, and I can't afford to die." So he took the 1st pack and left the plane. The 2nd passenger, Donald Trump, said, "I am the newly-elected U.S. President, and I am the smartest President in American history, so my people don't want me to die." He took the 2nd pack and jumped out of the plane. The 3rd passenger, the Pope, said to the 4th passenger, a 10 year old schoolboy, "My son, I am old and don't have many years left, you have more years ahead so I will sacrifice my life and let you have the last parachute." The little boy said, "That's okay, Your Holiness, there's a parachute left for you.
Trump took my school bag"

Do you know how many presidents already made that mistake? This joke is so old that it comes with an automatic beard folding device.

Trump is not so stupid as you want to show, pathetic troll. And after that useless "guy with alternative skin" he REALLY DOES something. And pray that president is not a Bush Jr. - biggest illiterate clown in the White House.

Nothing like a Public Holiday to celebrate your birthday (it was in April wasn't it!), too bad your subjects in Motherland don't get a day off for it.

It's politically incorrect to celebrate anything (even remotely) British in modern Britain 
Now is it bad enough that you let somebody else kick your butts without you trying to do it to each other? Now if we're all talking about the same man, and I think we are... it appears he's got a rather growing collection of our bikes.

Hi All,
At Parents doing up keep jobs...you know "Oh the garage roof has a little leak", look at it and say "Oh right that I'll fix when its dry". It's dry so muggins trys to fix it with cheapest calkying gun ever made. I spent a good hour trying fix the ****** to allow me to do a three minute repair. Also the calking had set in the tube so another hour to free it up enough to use. Get hands covered & a nice shirt, use language that would shame a drunk marine. Get thing working repair done in under three minutes, pound shop, dollar store tools SEEM like a bargin but they aren't...

You know, ya could've just sawed the tube of caulk in half and applied it with an ice cream stick.
After that, hammer the caulking gun to a pulp, tell the old man it fell off the roof and enjoy another ice cream.
Sin tack
the any key okay

Quote: ya could've just sawed the tube of caulk in half and applied it with an ice cream stick.
Tried that last time, not a pretty result. It needed to fit a small space between the chipboard roof, bibical mess. Calking gun and nozzle was the way to go.

When the caulk is silicone based, use a finger dipped into soap water to smear the caulk and remove excessive material. That will make it look nice.
Learned that at the Germain Air Force when sealing UHF antennas on top of jets.

I learnt it too but while fixing the caulking on my kitchen sink. It will never be as cool as how you learnt it!
