Hi Andy,

We have the root cause... A bug in Windows Update (WU) for Win10 we reported about 1y ago!

Windows Update doesn't look at version but (signature) dates.
Because 7.9 M7 was signed after 8.0 M0, you install 8.0 M0 correctly but WU overwrites it.

Now we understand, I can safely redistribute 8.0 M1 which was signed after.
I will do this in a few hours and post a reply when done.

Thanks for your patience whilst we are looking into it!
