That said, I ain't the Thread Police. Have at.

Zero problems with the Windows 10 updates on my HP laptop. But then, what do I know? I’m just a software engineer with 20 years’ experience. :)

“Troubleshoot sounds and Device Manager not helping “

Has it ever helped?

I had a phone call with Microsoft last week with my company and they said 1809 has been pulled from further deployments.

Oh, great. I just sent my wife off clear across the country to a big important conference today with that update freshly installed on her brand spanking beautiful new laptop. I can see what’s coming... It ain’t gonna be pretty... *GROAN!* How am I going to fix something I don’t have right in front of me, on a laptop I’m not familiar with, loaded with a buggy new OS version I’m also not familiar with??? BIG D HERE I COME!!! :-(

Has Microsoft had any Windows releases the weren’t susceptible to hacking or random crashes?

Oh, so that was the driver update that I dumped in favor of running a fast scan with that Driver Booster software I’ve been running on all of our ‘puters.

Only box in the place that’s running W10 is Grandma’s laptop and about one more of these [CLUSTER****] from Redmond and I’ll change that to Linux.

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice.....

Step daughter got a brand new Lenovo laptop. Turned it on and connected to WiFi. It went through it’s setup stuff which included downloading and installing updates. Black screen of death...had to send it back to get a new pre loaded hard drive.

Running Version Ver. 10.0.17134 here, will no updates waiting, as i long ago set Windows to delay updates , for the reason your thread is about.

And W/10 has been the most stable and problem-free OS I ever really used much, including Linux distros, thanks be to God.
