I see what you're saying, and what I'm saying is that at the end of the day, 1809 and LTSC are not ready for release to the public.
well when I tested the first time I also used the original ISO with nothing modified but when I tried to install the AMD video drivers I already had problems and even uninstalling these and re-installing older WHQL drivers I had problems again so I gave up for now ... off other details
Blind actionism !? As bad as installing 3 different AVs and crying loud about problems. ON LTSB/C: set ethernet to metered disable remediation tasks in task scheduler (some need TI priviliges in LTSC, use nsudo) configure GPO (not regedit then the settings will survive upgrades) additional tinfoil style: reroute MS IP ranges or use Firewall disable wuauserv Reboot Done.
thats where u r wrong... if m$ supported users with slower Internet and capped data users, we shouldnt have to follow these steps in first place.... why force people to use so called IT skills to fix that damn thing... why not make it like 7.. if they cant do that then why force people use windows 10...
They probably can do all but don't want to. If they wanted to keep it like 7 they would have done it. You could also complain by your ISP that they still have GB limits, we had that 20 years ago (talking about ISP over landlines, not cellphones).
yes u r right, your country is good at providing GB without limits but thats does not mean they should make us(country with crappy Internet than yours) to suffer.... thats why those softs to stop update and telemetry came into existence. this 4g 1.5gb/day here is best than what we were used to get.... and here broadband is nothing but bulls**t. and i m from india, so u know.
I realize you specifically stated LTSC, but if I take ownership and disable remediation tasks in 1809, it locks me out of task scheduler, and any further attemps to run task scheduler are met with the message, "this app has been blocked". This is on a clean install.
I did a clean install of LTSC and after a few hours of testing that's what I've found: 1. The task manager seems to work just fine, no weird bug to report (maybe they already fixed that through an update). 2. You can't select an app to always open a specific file format with (technically you can, I just don't save your preference). I tried with a ZIP file, no matter what, I can't use 7Zip by default, I am stuck with Windows Explorer. Fortunately if the file doesn't have any programs associated with it will register the preference (dunno if you can edit it later). 3. The option under Settings > Personalization > Start > "Show recently opened items in jump lists on start or the taskbar"is kinda broken. I turned it off, but some programs, like Chrome, keep storing data after a while and showing it. So annoying bugs for sure, but if they fix this stuff "soon", it looks like a good build to me. Have you find any other bugs?
Its all the useless garbage that clutters up my PC I want gone, it has nothing to do with saving space or performance. Having said that a smaller drive with the bare minimum on it will always be faster than big and full.
1809 enables the windows update,bits and medic service for windows update after restart and no programs can disable windows updates apparently. Any way to stop it from starting after restarts?
To work around the file association problem, do the open with process twice, associations hold then. The only exception I know of is .zip. Since you're using 7z, run 7zfm.exe (run as admin if it doesn't work) and in it's settings under the system tab, set .zip to open with 7zip. You will also have to go to the registry and change the icon for zip files because you will get a very ugly win9x era style icon otherwise.
I was able to associate 7Zip with Zip files finally using the option inside the program itself. I was almost able to change the icon in the registry but I don't know where to find the standard 7Zip icon, so I'll keep the weird one, they don't bother me too much after all. Thanks for the tip!
Use the below reg entry for the icon. Just change the folder to yours, Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\7-Zip.zip\DefaultIcon] @="C:\\Applications\\7z\\7zFM.exe"
