    I am using Windows 10 1511-10586 with all the latest updated. After the latest update I began having sudden random crashes. I checked all hardware and overclocks, but it all was stable. Then I read somewhere that Xbox 360 controllers may have issues with the latest 14xxx Preview build and decided to disconnect my Xbox 360 controller. Since then there were 0 crashes.

    Is this normal? Is it a known bug in the latest update? I ran all the repair methods with Xbox 360 controller (Chkdsk /f, DISM RestoreHealth, SFC /ScanNow), but that did not help at all...

    Try from manual install list to update or downgrade the xbox controller maybe that will fix it :tea:
