I believe, from reading, that its only purpose is to solve a blue screen problem which some users have had.
yeah its not for the keyboard which is really funny because the file they patched is the same file that contains the bug causing the keyboard issue (win32k.sys) anyway the patch is for some 0xAB BSOD people were seeing on shutdown. Was ANYONE here seeing that? Because I definitely wasn't, at least on the machines that run 9879 (not my desktop)
Hello, My replacevan value key is alreay set to 1. I cannot change the value, even in admin. I think it's an other problem. Any other idea in order to update to the new build (whitout réinstalling - )
Microsoft.windowscommunicationsapps_17.5.9600.20689_x64_8wekyb3d8bbwe just released in Store, conflicts with already included inbox Microsoft.windowscommunicationsapps_17.5.9879.20671_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe and can't be updated, throwing 0x80246007 . This if anyone is concerned for the error's reason: inbox version is considered newer via package version, but Store has a Windows 6.3 version for the same PFN published dated newer. A similar situation goes with the OneNote app as well. Hopefully both of the issues (as well as the apparent removal of ID_CAP_PROXIMITY) be fixed with Store 10.0 rollout early next year...
I personally haven't had any BSODs with 9879 or any of the previous builds thus far. I don't believe many users here on MDL have mentioned it either, at least not often. I do recall, though, that it was listed as one of the Known Issues initially for 9879 build.
I believe that it was one of the listed Known Issues for build 9879, although I assume it must not have been as wide spread as initially thought. Also, I assume it must be placebo regarding the explorer GDI leak because it wasn't mentioned as part of what was fixed in that update. My explorer.exe process is still experiencing significant GDI leakage with regards to that progress bar issue with videos playing, download progress, etc.
