can't download Preview Builds and/or register with Window Insider Program...very confused
which version and build of Windows 10 are you using now? is it the latest?
you can view it by going to the setting => System => about
Hello. Yes, I updated Windows prior to trying to join WIP. I'm running Windows 10 Version 1809 OS Build 17763.1158
Well that is more than 1 year old..the latest one is 1909 which was released 6-7 months ago
if you don't see any new updates in Windows update, after checking manually for updates, then use this link to download the installer (ISO) and run it inside OS to do an in-place upgrade, once it's done, you can join Windows insider.

Or you can download Windows insider ISO files and install them directly (I wouldn't recommend doing it over an old version of Windows 10 1809) but fresh install it, which requires formatting your C drive.

HotCakeXyou're a genius! That worked great. Like a young Elvis, you rock! And now I'll go and see if I can get Windows Subsystem for Linux installed as well. But this had been driving me mad. I'll mention how great it is to use the forums in my coding camp class tonight. Thanks again!
- Btw it is released to the release preview ring 🙂
