    Question.....With this build it would show date and time in file explore,like it would show yesterday or just now.
    But since I did a clean install of this build it no longer shows this. It only shows the date and time.
    I kind of like the way it was showing (yesterday) how can I get this back.
    Thanks

    In explorer switch to details view and right click the "Date modified" column header and select the "Use friendly dates" item or look for the "Show dates in conversational format" option in folder options view tab. If it's not there, then there is no way to get it back until MS deems you worthy of having it.

    After several reboots, it now appears.

    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\TaskManager

    Name: StartUpTab
    Type: DWORD
    Values:
    0 - Processes (Default)/Missing/Not needed if you want this tab to be default
    1 - Performance
    2 - App history
    3 - Startup
    4 - Users
    5 - Details
    6 - Services
    (Basically the order the tabs appear, starting at 0 for 'Processes'..)

    Not sure if that'd work if it doesn't appear.

    I was able to download 18305 ISO from a Russian site. Installed as a VM and tested Sandbox. Worked out fine. Will have to explore new features in 18305 during the weekend. So far pretty happy with 18305 build.

    Where can I download the latest version of windows 10 Insider Preview (Build 18305.1000.- Pt-pt).
    I can not download it through UUP. I do not know what's going on, because I was able to do so.

    I signed into my Insider account, the only answer I could dredge up before that was from answers.microsoft.com, a Hungarian user did the same thing: wait, reboot, and the option finally appeared in Taskmgr. On the Feedback Hub app, users brought up the same issue but no replies from anyone.

    I still don't have the "Friendly dates" option though, even with mach2.

    I use uupdl to download insider previews.

    Whether you downloaded it from uupdl or WU/Insider, everyone should see and have those options.

    I find it very disturbing, we have this thread here:

    https://forums.mydigitallife.net/th...protected-processes.78548/page-4#post-1491964

    and we won't know why I suddenly have that option and you don't, even if you did the registry setting.

    It shouldn't be any wonder they can't make stable releases every 6 months and have to delay them an extra month like they did with 1809.

    Why should someone have to be signed in to test this feature?

    I read your replies before it was edited.

    It still doesn't make sense. Everyone that has the same bits should not experience different features based on some voodoo, like why I magically have the option to set a default Task Mgr tab after some time and other users, like cuteee, still can't even if he set the correct registry entry, or why I don't have the 'friendly dates' option either. I've had the same install since my and his reply and now that option magically appears for Task Manager.

    So you make a new entery called startup tab....Because I don't have that under that heading.
    Also this will give me the friendly dates back.

    That regedit setting is for the default Task Manager tab, from what I can surmise from cuteee's post, if you don't see the setting in the Task Manager GUI, it probably won't work in regedit either.

    'Friendly dates' is another matter, 'mach2' as it appears, couldn't even enable that. Reboot hundreds of times or wait until the official 19H1 public release around March. I'm sure there would be numerous driver/kernel changes between then that breaks a lot of hardware, have us scrambling for a 19H1 compatible driver from the mfgr months after its release. Said feature will be the least of your worries o_O and 19H2 will be released by then, and the search for 19H2 compatible drivers.
