Is it safe to install version 17.9.2319 beta on Redstone 4 Windows 10 insider preview builds?

Because I do not want to get more green screen crashes on my computers again and have to rebuild windows like I do when trying to install 17.8.2318 on the latest fast ring Insider Builds.

No, Avast has already stated in one of the other threads that the Preview Builds aren't supported.

really that sucks because I have been using the insider builds mostly without any issues with Avast up until now. I guess I will be going Avast free for a while then. :(

Thanks for the info

That's what I'm doing on the one system that's running Insider Preview Builds.
If you think of it as Beta on a Beta, it really isn't a good thing and re-installing is even worse.

Cant use this version in W8.1. Plenty of BSOD restarting.

Please elaborate, Avast is a resident AV, so not sure what you mean.

I suspect nedim_88 means scanning USB when connected, but avast already does that in a way that all activity is scanned.

I think he means a full USB drive scan when you plug it in. With real-time, I frankly really don't see the need for it. This would only make sense if your system is a massive transition place where a lot of USB devices passes through and you need to be sure USB drives leaving your system are spotless. But that's often not the case. For personal use, real-time will do the trick.
