Problem with this anti-cheat software is that it almost always goes pretty low-level and sometimes uses techniques that can also be found in malware. So maybe Microsoft did something good here and made Windows 10 more robust and secure at the low level, but broke "malicious" stuff like anti-cheat software. Either that, or they relied on some undocumented (and therefore not intended to be used by the general public) API that doesn't behave like it used to anymore.
I read a tweet from Brandon a couple of days ago in which he stated in passing that this build was signed off. Traditionally that would have happened on Tuesday (the 19th) and this flight to Slow Ring confirms that 19H1 is done and dusted (CUs to come of course). I expect the flight to the Release Preview ring will be next week since 18362 appears to be our final.
this build seems to take up more hard drive space after install than other versions? can anyone confirm?
That's because the Windows reserves a 7GB dedicated space for Windows Updates, you can disable it through this tweak but it should be integrated to the image before the install. Code: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\ReserveManager] "ShippedWithReserves"=dword:00000000
Tried to create ISO's with them and results are identical. Created ISO files are have same file sizes but secondly created ISO renamed as ISONAME_1. Also checked them from UUP's website, those are contains same files with same SHA checksums. Not sure but I think you can go with one of them.
Along with that, if we choose to open Task manager with Performance section it turns up blank and I need to click few times on each section to get it. Sometimes I observed Zombie process designated as null and when Force terminating task mgr asks "Are you sure you want abandon {null} process, I always hit Yes". Any idea how to install 19h1 in VMware player when it stuck at black screen with Win logo for 4 hrs w/o any progress, I lost my patience and installed it in Host machine w/o any issue. I tried some tweaks someone posted at MDL forums. As a workaround for running W7 in VM on 18362.1 I'm using win 8.1 compatibility mode otherwise even properly working VMs just shows black screen. Clicking on Apps section crashes Settings app. Standby list bug is still there after rigorous QA.
