WMF 5.0 is currently only available as Preview. However, in my test, I hadn’t installed WMF 5.0 and I didn’t encounter any problems. I have read reports that you have to install WMF 5.0 on the servers that you want to manage with RSAT for Windows 10. If you want to administer Windows Server 2012 and older Windows Server versions from a Windows Server 2012 R2 machine, you have to install Management Framework (WMF) 4.0. You will have to restart Windows after you install RSAT. Localized versions of RSAT are currently not available.

If your Windows 10 installation uses a language other than English, you have to first install the English (United States) language pack. You can only install RSAT on Windows 10 Professional and Windows 10 Enterprise. If you upgraded Windows 10 Preview to the final version, RSAT Preview should have been uninstalled automatically. I am unsure if the Preview had the same KB number. To uninstall RSAT, type “installed updates” in the Control Panel and then search for the corresponding Update. If you installed RSAT’s Preview version, you should uninstall it before you install the new RSAT. Perhaps the reason is that RSAT comes as a Windows update, which I find odd too.Įven the Preview version of RSAT for Windows 10, which has been available for a while, did not work on the final release of Windows 10. I have always wondered why because the tools are usually the same.

Thus, you can’t install RSAT for Windows 8.1 on Windows 10. You probably know that any Windows version requires its own RSAT version.
