i wish they'd go back to doing small hotfixes and not these 500-700mb updates as they always fail on my machines with the stupid failed configuring updates, after you reboot, always gets to 99% and then fails, happens so often i just skip install updates and just upgrade windows when a new build goes rtm. even when i check for component store corruption and no corruption is present, it still fails. i miss the xp days where you'd install updates and not have to deal with the configuring updates process and windows would just go straight to the desktop, seems like with each new windows they create, the updates process gets more complex and more prone to problems... better still, all these full builds is getting silly, feel like i need to keep upgrading again and again, why can't they do service packs??? keep things simple.
yeah am still laughing at so called delta updates which are still way too huge for cumulative updates when they should be analyzing what you need and give you the under 50mb in proper updates of whatever fixed dll/exe or patch those files that need updating like a proper patch delta updating system used to do decades ago with those rtpatch updating software which is not asking too much
windows 1-3 - light and fast windows 95-98-me - light and fast, although buggy at times windows 2000-XP - light and fast windows vista - getting bloated, fast, but updates process is slower windows 7 - bit more bloated but fast. updates process is slower windows 8 - even more bloated but fast, updates process even slower and now very buggy windows 10 - super bloated but fast, updates process sucks at the point where i wish they'd ditch the insider thing and return how it was before windows 8, when stuff worked properly. constantly churning out new full builds of windows is just creating more bugs. ideally it should be; rtm > small hotfixes > service pack > new windows and repeat, like it used to be, way less messing about. can't be arsed to keep up with all these new builds...ms should just release a complete os like they used to do, all they keep doing is add more features / bloat. just stick to fixing stuff....not that will happen, unless they screw up big time and have a re-think...
Significantly improved my new ThinkPad's iris scan I use in tandem with fingerprint scanning to log into my government VPN and domain servers. Now it seems the iris scanning sensors are much quicker to authenticate and more sensitive.
I am not sure where to ask, but about Abbodi's W10UI. It does this with install.wim: updates (Stack, CU, NETFX 4.7, Adobe), resets base, installs NETFX 3.5, and then RE-installs CU. Does it re-install CU due to NETFX 3.5 being the last item to integrate (after original resetbase)? That means there's no reason to re-run CU after OS was installed! Sweet! I always thought that re-installing CU on top of NETFX 3.5 would require another rebasing, but I guess I was wrong!
It reinstalls the CU to update dotnetfx3. And as said manymanymanymany times before, resetbase can't be performed after enabling dotnetfx3 because it sets the pending flag.
