YES! It's another in a series of threads I intend to post showing the positive aspects of Windows 10. A number of pro-Windows FReepers have taken me to task of late, for the number of threads I've posted describing problems or hurdles with Windows 10. So I'm posting some positive stuff in the hopes of evening up the score a bit.

I'll ask that those who visit these threads take a similarly positive approach -- it's not a "caucus", but these are not intended to be threads to bash Microsoft on.

Thanks, FRiends.

Windows 10 Anniversary Update... PING!

You can find all the Windows Ping list threads with FR search: just search on keyword "windowspinglist".

Never mind those webcams, and PowerShell, and whatnot... MOST of the Anniversary Update worked, and here's some information on how to take advantage of it!

Thanks very much, (again) awesome you, dayglored!

I personally like Win 10.

Best since XP.

Is this update for Windows 10 Pro as well? I did a “check for updates” and it says I’m up to date even though the version is 1511 and not 1607

Had no trouble updating. It did take some time after the restart to get things up and running properly.

The Wife has a Win 10 machine.

Last update nixed all four of her printers.

All four; hence it is not a specific printer driver issue.

She is back to 3.5 printers (with her main printer unable to duplex Outlook emails).

I’m shifting Her to a Mac with Windows 7 (via Parallels) in the next year.

I DO NOT APPRECIATE AUTOMATIC UPDATES (that I can not turn off)!

Since I got my surface in march I’ve consistently received a message that my video driver has crashed and restarted. I was hoping the update would take care of it, but it still happens.
Also my camera went out briefly, but I never use it anyway.
I get surveys every few months and I do give them an earful.

Running the update as I freep. I really have had no issues with Windows 10 and this laptop (or any of the other PC’s in my house) but most of my hardware is pretty current. My Lenovo Flex 14 has an i5 4th gen chip and intel video, printer is only a couple years old etc. I have noticed after a couple of updates sometimes I need to reinstall an app to get it visible/running again but that is rare. One thing I still cant figure out is what happened to my facial recognition when I went from 8.1 to 10 but it was a program from Lenovo. Maybe hello will work. Also Bitlocker I have never been able to figure out how to turn on but I think that is because I don’t run Pro.

Cannot open EDGE or any Windows 10 page. Not even Bing! Mozilla still works so I use Firefox and Google.

1:10 from start of download to finished. Everything seems good right now.
