Is there a new Windows 10 ADK Version? I can only find ADK with build 10075 released along with Windows build 10074

Hi!
Is there a new Windows 10 ADK that fixes some issues known with ADK 10075?
Or are there any plans for a updated Version before official Windows 10 release?
We are already working on the new Windows 10 Images for deployment to our customers and we have two Major Bugs that prevents us from proceeding.
First: Windows PE cannot execute powershell.exe or some small .Net utilities we wrote. We only get "stack Overflow" exception/message at the command prompt (.Net, Scripting/powersehll Modules are integrated).
Second(Build 10130): When executing sysprep for sealing a Image, we get a fatal error. The known cause are file locks by the new tiledatamodelsvc Service. The only way getting a sealed Image is to shut down the Service the hard way with Registry, because it is instantly restarting before sysprep can do its things.
Third(Minor) : We would prefer localized ADK(WinPE in german) - are there any plans for localization before official Windows 10 release?
Thanks
Thomas

Tom,
There is a setting that configure the app updates under Windows Store:
You may check and see if this would work on all the Windows Store style apps.

As I said in your Microsoft community thread there is a 10158 ADK update which you can get at the usual places. They expect to release 10162 ADK shortly.

Thomas,
There would be new Windows ADK available, but not now. For the plans, well in addition to the developing team, I don't think anyone would know.
For the powershell part, you may consider seek help at some developer forum.
Sysprep should work when the system is not downloading/updating apps, if this is the issue in your case, then please run sysprep after the app updating. We may check the sysprep log for further troubleshooting.
And I don't think WinPE could be localized.

Ah ok, thanks.
I think it will be available right with RTM.
You are right with sysprep, but i hope sysprep could handle that with RTM.
The Problem is, we then have to detect when updates/Downloads are finished, because we are running our master building completely automated with msbuild and hyper-v.
The only way I know for know is to disable the tilemodelsvc completely over registry, then sysprep will run immediately after our Installation scripts have finished.In build 162, they have changed the Installation and update behavior for Apps for Administrator Account we use to build the Master Image. Before 162, it got all Apps and Updates, although they are useless because they are all blocked für security. Sysprep stopped with a fatal error because there where file locks on App Files. I think this is exactly what u mean.
Now with 162 the only 2 Apps in Start are Edge and Cortana. Now sysprep gives no Fatal Error, but complains about following:
2015-07-08 13:44:06, Info [0x0f0080] SYSPRP ActionPlatform::LaunchModule: Found 'SysprepGeneralizeValidate' in C:\Windows\System32\AppxSysprep.dll; executing it
2015-07-08 13:44:06, Info SYSPRP Entering SysprepGeneralizeValidate (Appx) - validating whether all apps are also provisioned.2015-07-08 13:44:06, Error SYSPRP Package Microsoft.VCLibs.120.00_12.0.21005.1_x86__8wekyb3d8bbwe was installed for a user, but not provisioned for all users. This package will not function properly in the sysprep image.
2015-07-08 13:44:06, Error SYSPRP Failed to remove apps for the current user: 0x80073cf2.
2015-07-08 13:44:06, Error SYSPRP Exit code of RemoveAllApps thread was 0x3cf2.
I think this is a other Problem now.
I was able to remove These VCLibs.120 with powershell, but it then complained about VC.11...
Get-AppxPackage | Remove-AppxPackage
helped, but I do not think this is the right way ;)Windows PE: Windows 8/8.1 PE came with Multi language Support.
Thanks for helping,

Well Thomas,
I think we came to the old issues about sysprep:
See the article below for the Caution part:
https://technet.microsoft.com/library/hh824938?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
"
Don't use the Windows Store to update your Windows Store apps before running sysprep /generalize. Sysprep fails to generalize the image in this scenario. This issue also applies to the Windows Store apps that are included with Windows 8 (for example, Mail, Maps, Bing Finance, Bing News, and others). This can occur when you are customizing your installation in audit mode as the built in administrator, or when using a specific user account. The following error appears in the sysprep log files (%WINDIR%\System32\Sysprep\Panther):<package name> was installed for a user, but not provisioned for all users. This package will not function properly in the sysprep image.
Sysprep /generalize requires that all apps are provisioned for all users. However, when you update an app from the Windows Store, that app becomes non-provisioned and is tied that user account. Instead of using the Windows Store to update your apps, you should sideload updates to your line-of-business apps, or have end-users update their apps by using the Windows Store on their destination PCs. In managed environments, if Windows Store access is disabled by an IT administrator, you will not be able to update the Windows 8 Store apps. For more information about sideloading line-of-business Windows Store apps, see Sideload Apps with DISM and Customize the Start Screen."
For the WinPE part, if Windows 8.1 works, then it should also work in Windows 10, regarding multiple language support. But for the current situation, as Windows 10 by now is lacking language pack support, I don't think WinPE would be considered, there might be some time to make it work.

Thanks a lot Michael,
that clears up a lot.
The Thing is, I have nothing changed from sysprepping a Window 8/8.1 to the Windows 10 in our automatic build process. We also do nothing explicite to the apps, no explicite update or adding something, only the things Windows is doing after a Standard Installation.
I think, that Windows 10 has changed update mechanisms/policy, so they are running updates or installing newest Versions from the Internet or doing it much earlier than Windows 8. We had never a Problem with Windows 8 sysprep, except in early beta like now with Windows 10.
So, I understand the issue and since we do nothing to the apps at all, I think I have 2 Options:
1. Stop Windows from running any App install or App update
Do you know any configuration possibility to stop this? Registry?2. Wait until Windows has done all Installation and Updates.
Do you know any indicator (Registry,WMI,running process anything) that indicates the Install/Update Process is done?Any configuration or indication would be helpfull to code this in our full automatic master build process.
Thanks a lot, if we were lucky it will be changed/fixed to RTM, like the last time with Windows 8, but I am searching for Solutions now, to win some time for developing/testing with our Main Application.
Windows PE: I also think they need time, I only thought there could be a new ADK build along with Windows somewhere else. Since we are not "really" a OEM, we have to wait for Releases for the general public.
Best Regards
