    I did give it some time. Many of the times I waited 10-30 minutes.. :p
    If I get time I may try without 4018....but since it works with LIP added there's really no point.
    I mean...if we were to have these releases for a long time..then yes, maybe...but maybe there will be an 8.1 update 2 or even 8.2 this fall with new refresh ISO:s.
    Then we'll jsut start with those as base ISO:s anyway....so no point in spending way too much time on this. :)

    It's a Rollup, any issues it have will be fixed in next month rollup

    i think rollups become important updates after two months (maybe four)

    If you employ any sort of tweaks or custom a/v programs, updates can cause these kinds of problems.
    Things like this are why I usually only use reg tweaks when not offered an official option through the various gui or command line functions.
    It's also why I don't care for system tweak/cleaner tools.

    People like to give MS crap , but I find that their official documentation and programs always seem to function well when you use them as intended.

    I only use Windows Defender + SpyBot Search and Destroy-2 (only for immunisation) and CCleaner for removing the temp-files.

    Beside that I only use via Start-up:

    - Stardock Start8
    - Stardock WindowsBlinds 8
    - cFosSpeed
    - Logitech- / Shogun Bros.- / Roccat- / Razor- / Zalman-Driver-Software
    - Asus AI - Suite II
    - Raptr
    - Total Commander Ultima Prime
    - Asus AiChargerPlus
    - Btmshellex
    - Canon IJ Network Scan Utility
    - Intel Rapid Store Technology
    - NVIDIA Control Panel / GeForce Experience
    - Gigabyte OC Guru II
    - iTunes Helper
    - Realtek Audio Manager
    - RegistryHelper
    - XBoxStat
    - Apple Quicktime

    I never use Registry-Cleaner's, but update certain apps via Ninite and the only known issue I have is, that I can't update / un-install my Adobe Acrobat Reader anymore (No valid sequence could be found for the set of patches.).

    :confused:
