    someone a few pages back said its the auto color causing some glitches for personalization. so I clicked on the auto color option and selected a color and fixed the issues I was having. it might work for those also?

    If you happen to have your Windows 10 machines pointed at a WSUS, it will report them as "Windows Vista" where it previously reported them as "Windows 6.4" - WSUS is apparently using the kernel version number to decide what OS it is. Doesn't otherwise affect functionality, if you have imported the updates and unconverged it in the registry, it will download and update as normal.

    This is the customization I do after install (saved as .reg file), and as necessary, for machines on my network because the Internet is slow and I don't want it downloading new builds automatically and I want it to use my WSUS. If there's a new build, I'll learn about it here and download the ISO at home. Our Internet at work is *really* slow.
    Code:
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
    
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsUpdate\UX]
    "IsConvergedUpdateStackEnabled"=dword:00000000
    
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsUpdate\UX\Settings]
    "UxOption"=dword:00000000
    
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsSelfHost\Applicability]
    "BranchName"="No_Updates_Please"

    For you who have 0x80070057 error in new windows update, try to change registry for update in control panel, it worked for me so I didn't had to reinstall it

    The XAML Start Menu can maybe scale better when switching to Tablet mode. Note that currently the elements are too small for touch in tablet mode compared to Windows 8. So probably the new Start menu, taskbar and Action Center will be scaled up in Tablet mode.

    How about, instead letting it check for the lab No_Updates_Please, you actually disable flighting?
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsSelfHost\Applicability]
    "ThresholdFlightsDisabled"=dword:00000001

    When drivers coming with DX12 suport you get 12 feature level.

    But from AMD maybe get DX 11.3 for now.

    Because I wasn't aware that existed. :) Always more than one way to get something done!

    It does work. If it doesn't then you should change the REG_DWORD to zero.

    Code:
     1) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsUpdate\UX "IsConvergedUpdateStackEnabled"=dword:00000000
    
    2) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsUpdate\UX\Settings "UxOption"=dword:00000000

    Holy s.. I just found out that Store apps can run *inside* File Explorer.

    Did I missed this? Is this known already?

    How to test it: Settings > Personalize > Choose an Image. Now Explorer opens a File Open dialog. You can choose the Photos app from the side pane and the app will run inside Explorer. Crazy. So this is the new File Picker? If so they have a lot to do.

    Nice find!

    Yet... A completely pointless feature in my opinion...

    Why pointless? You will be able to open let's say a file from your Dropbox app from inside Photoshop.
