[INFO - DISCUSSION + Downloads] Windows 10 1809 FINAL b 17763.xxx (PC) [RS5]

A lot of processes can be exploited if malware has already access ... .

 

There is a "revised" KB4464455 (CU), plus KB4462930 (FLASH) and KB4465477 (SSU) that pushes it to version .107 integrated using DISM on original 17763.1

JCC2

 

Only Microsoft knows, & they are not talking.

 

and that's a good thing that MS is not talking so far about re-releasing 1809

 

Likely it'll be re-released without any notice.

 

You didn't get it. Microsoft can choose to release new apps (like the UWP Phone app) as new "features", instead of changing the OS. If you install crap on your OS, of course it might not be as smooth after a few months. I keep a barebones OS and it functions pretty much identically after the 6 months that pass until a new feature Update. For example, installing Nvidia driver and GFE combo for example decreases both Cinebench and CPU-Z scores for me, reliably so, especially the single core ones, add a lot of this and yes, you will get a slower PC.

And Windows 10 1809 performs about the same as the first Windows 10. What performance improvements? i see nothing. There's no additional FPS in games and AIDA64/Cinebench/CPUZ benchmarks were the same before and after 1709/1803/1809. I still have the before/after report files for 1809. Outside one difference with a buggy benchmark (FPU VP8), all is basically identical.

Even SSD benchmarks are identical.

So why bother with the feature updates if performance is just the same...

 

Why would anyone want to have Flash Player installed? That's just asking for trouble.

Quick question.
Windows server 2016 didn't add any .local names in local network, Windows Server 2019 does. Is there a way to remove it ?

Example, if i ping a PC that has a SMB Windows name: Server

Code:

Windows Server 2016:
Pinging SERVER [fe80::2195:16b4:bd4f:b6eb%12] with 32 bytes of data:

Edit:
Same happens with Windows 10 1809.

 

The features update is part of Windows 10. UWP apps are not exactly part of Windows 10 because you can uninstall them in this or another way.
You get all the new features in one file (ESD or ISO). If you will get pieces of new features by UWP apps or small updates files, people will be crazy because one person will get feature1 another will get feature2 and it will be very big mess. We have already mess with the bugs of each new features updates and this is enough for us.

a new update?

 

Just installed LTSC (clean install, applied all the updates and ran sfcscannow, dism and wsreset) and can confirm, Windows 10 1809 does delete files out of effing nowhere for zero effing reason. WTF I thought this was solved by now. I downloaded a few things, but after about an hour the Downloads folder was empty. When I go to Downloads in Chrome, I see all the files as deleted. Recycle Bin has a few of them in it, but they're just little pieces, and the whole folder structure is destroyed.

So, if you care about your file safety, I say at least wait.. The problem is very much real, and it's not a part of the upgrade process (because obviously I didn't upgrade).

Edit: apparently it's a part of disk clean up now. Bad decision IMO, most people don't ever clear their Downloads folder, just putting it there all of a sudden can cause lots of confusion..

 

I have not experienced any random file deletion issues with 1809, but I practically run it in Safe Mose with fully functional graphics and network capabilities.

 

Running 1809 Enterprise since day one and never had files deleted either. I suspect that everyone that has experienced it has somehow enabled KFR either knowingly or unknowingly, or ran Disk Cleanup and checkmarked all options in it.

 

Been running 1809 for a month and never had issues. I had to update chipset drivers due to system freezes but after that I had no issues. Hoping that Microsoft releases the October update, so I can update it with new fixes.

Note about WSL: since it's launch we got teased distributions that can be downloaded from M$ Store including Fedora (i'm talking about official info from m$) but i couldn't find it ever on store. (not that i'm interested in using it)
