[BA FTP archive] Errata: Wrong version numbers, misnamings…

[Windows Thunderstruck]

the english copy of windows 10 build 10176 on the ftp is a mod using files from a different build (10166 iirc, gus33000 told me in late 2020 but i dont have the discord dms atm)

https://ia802208.us.archive.org/view_ar ... US_DV5.iso

see the two links for proof

https://ia902208.us.archive.org/view_ar ... US_DV5.iso

10176 says zh-cn, 10166 says en-us

so i suggest you un-svfify the chinese iso and replace the english iso

current:
/(Beta) Operating Systems/PC/Microsoft Windows 10 (''Threshold'')/10.0.10176.16384/10.0.10176.16384.th1.150705-1526_amd64fre_client-enterprise_volume_en-us [+]

intended:
/(Beta) Operating Systems/PC/Microsoft Windows 10 (''Threshold'')/10.0.10176.16384/10.0.10176.16384.th1.150705-1526_amd64fre_client-enterprise_volume_zh-cn

tldr: 10176 english is literally a language pack installed on top of the chinese version

[mrpijey]

Sorted all except for branch splitting (still need proper evidence) and this last 10176 build repack, as you linked to contents of the ISOs (which isn't helpful if we're staying original) and not to ISOs themselves.

Thanks.

i uploaded the chinese iso of 10176 to the ftp last night, straight from the converted svf

the isos that i linked are literally reuploads from the ftp on archive.org (not mine obvs)

look at the sources folder contents in 10176 "english"
it says zh-cn, while a geniune english-us iso would say en-us (look at the exact same place in 10166)

10166 is fine, it doesnt have problems, 10176 had a english language pack from 10166 slapped on top of it

10176 chinese is the og iso of said build, not the english-us ver

Beta/Software Development Kits/PC (Downloads)/Microsoft Windows 8.1 Debug Symbols (6.2.8400.0) (beta)

That should be Windows 8 not 8.1 Debug Symbols (6.2.8400.0) (Beta) as 6.2 is for Windows 8.0.

/(Abandonware) Applications/PC (Windows)/Williams-Sonoma Guide To Good Cooking (1.0.1) (1996) [English]

this is a mac application, not a windows application, because i checked disc properties using gburner and it uses hfs partition and files that would be seen on classic mac os

so please move into:

edit: please remove /(Abandonware) Applications/PC (Windows)/Williams-Sonoma Guide To Good Cooking (1.0.1) (1996) [English]

actually found out the copy of the item described above in the /(Abandonware) Applications/PC (Windows) folder is a duplicate of said item in /(Abandonware) Applications/Apple Macintosh

because there arent any windows files on it and the fact it says Sun Solaris on it
