So whether or not build 10240 is indeed RTM, either way testers are going to be getting new builds and updates right up until the launch. And you should do that more than just once: “Besides builds, over the next 2 weeks you’ll also see some Windows Updates and app updates in the Store, so make sure to keep checking for updates daily to make sure you’re running the latest and greatest code,” Gabe Aul, Microsoft’s general manager for the operating system group’s data and fundamentals team, wrote today. To get build 10240, you can either wait for it to be installed automatically or go to Start => Settings => Update & Security => Windows Update => Check for updates.

Microsoft promised testers would still be getting Windows 10 builds, but said the company was no longer offering ISOs so that it could test the Windows Update process for upgrading to Windows 10.

Just two days ago, Microsoft temporarily suspended the latest builds (1016) in preparation for the Windows 10 launch on July 29. Microsoft is likely done with Windows 10 and is now shifting focus to delivering it to users. While continuing to “update Windows 10 code” could imply there are more Windows 10 builds to come prior to launch, that’s not necessarily the case. “We are embracing a new way to deliver Windows.” “This build is the latest Windows 10 build, and we’ll continue to update Windows 10 code as we head toward launch and beyond,” a Microsoft spokesperson told VentureBeat. Unfortunately, if build 10140 is indeed RTM, Microsoft isn’t ready to confirm it.

We contacted Microsoft to verify if build 10240 is indeed RTM, as this would mean PC makers will be loading it onto new computers ready for sale.
