My 3rd update on this topic and, hopefully a happy ending that will last. After last clean install which showed blurry fonts, NIC issues and pretty often BSOD, I also got a virus that got control of Windows Defender (it showed that Virus Protection settings were "managed by my organization"???). It was also opening by itself new tabs in Edge and hell knows what else it did in the background. Therefore it was time for a new clean install, which I did with the same ISO (the stick still held the files since 1-2 days ago). During the setup, while selecting keyboards and phone no., I suddenly lost the picture (black screen, computer working in background). Hard reset and DEL to get to BIOS (my idea was to try deactivating Intel integrated graphics that I suspected as conflicting with others). I found no setting to deactivate that, still I turned on a few auto overclocking settings that Asus MB included in its BIOS. Upon restart, installation resumed with the setup screen of 1280x960 (I guess) displayed like a stamp in the center of my 2560 monitor. Before the restart it was filling the screen. Few setups steps were repeated, but it went on flawless. After almost 1 day I can report no issues with the fonts, nor the NIC and no BSOD. I mention that the same software (drivers included) was installed in almost the same order. I just skipped PowerISO and Winrar, that I believe I won't need anymore. As the blurry fonts appeared previously since first boot, I seriously doubt these skipped apps are in any way related to my former issues. To summarize, I guess 17133 is extremely sensitive to BIOS settings during setup (facts I don't recall since some builds of W7). And if you encounter similar problems like mine - do a hard reset during setup & overclock Just kidding, I don't believe my case is reproductible...
Can someone tell me how can i make clean install RS4 17133.1 on EFI mode without create two OEM recovery partitions ?
New Intel Microcode update, which you get if you install KB4090007 on version 1709, and you need it to be protected from Spectre, is not included. So you are not protected from Spectre unless your BIOS include the new Intel Microcode update. Short story: No Spectre protection in 1803 itself without a proper Microcode update either from Micro$oft or BIOS.
when can we download the official RS4 build without combining with the products.cab file?? 10.04.18 ??
I still have it. Also pressing shift while win x restart will also launch the advanced restart options menu.
When I used RDP to connect to PC, I didn't see it. But when I logged on physically on the same PC, the option was there
It's bug in diskpart/Disk Management(diskmgmt.msc) for clean install, simply boot RS4 iso on USB or DVD and remove all partitions and install on Unallocated space you can check in Powershell after installation type in PS terminal: > Code: Get-Volume Only one OEM recovery partition!
anyone got 'critical process died' BSOD in this build? I installed this 17133.1 build two days ago from the ISO that fetched from latest MCT tool via official MS ESD. Installed every driver correctly & didn't encounter any other issue except the ' background running app' glitch that everyone is facing here & lately taking & discussing. So just thought to share my experience with this build, anyone faced this issue so far or I am the only one P.S: Today, I did another clean installation of this same build for the subsequent BSOD with that same 'critical process died' error code.
I have 2 Recovery partitions as well, but only in Disk Management, after a clean install with deletion of former Recovery/EFI etc. partitions during the setup. Also a Recovery folder popped up out of nowhere on my D: partition which I promptly deleted. There's a 500GB Samsung EVO 850 which has the OS partition as C: and a Games partition as D: and a HDD, all looks OK in diskpart, but Disk Management shows this duplicate phantom Recovery. I assume its just a visual bug? Appears to everybody with Spring Creator's Update? Wonder if Microsoft knows about it.
