I've got Windows 10 Insider Fast Ring running inside a VM. This is running the first AU update, build 14901. This one does indeed recognise the Kobo immediately, and without problems. I've installed Calibre in it, and as 14901 recognises the Kobo Aura on the USB connection, I've been using Calibre all day now without any issues.

I wouldn't recommend running Fast Ring on a production machine, though, because doing so introduces other issues. This for example is according to MS a known issue for 14901: "Adobe Acrobat Reader crashes when you try to launch it."

Update. My VM has just updated itself to build 14905. Kobo Aura H2O still running rather well.
