Evaluation VM contain:
- Windows 10 Enterprise Evaluation, Version 1607

- Windows developer SDK and tools (Build 14393)
- Microsoft Azure SDK for .NET (Build 2.9.6)

If you don’t currently have a Windows 10 Pro license, you can get one from the Microsoft Store. If you just want to try out Windows 10 and UWP, use the free evaluation version of the VMs. The evaluation copies will expire after a pre-determined amount of time.
If you have feedback on the VMs, please provide it over at the Windows Developer Feedback UserVoice site.
