I have just updated my laptop to Creators Edition and so far are extremely unimpressed
I was running Professional (1703) I think) which I was happyish with
But on updating - I see no improvement at allI see several mistakes by MS - such as missing the ability to check what updates are already installedIt was a large download - and took me the best part of an hour to get it up and runningDon't bother unless you are bored........0 -
There are some other things, for example.
Powershell has replaced cmd on the quick access toolbar from the start button (cmd does still exist for now).
Game mode has been added to give games more resources over the rest of the system and help boost performance.
Night mode has been introduced to help reduce screen glare at night.
VPN has been changed so that you can connect to a VPN quicker without having to go into a second menu.
Control Panel has been removed from the quick access toolbar from start but does still exist.
Microsoft have announced they are now on a 6 month upgrade cycle with new releases coming every September and March so expect 1709 later in the year. Free upgrades every 6 months, you can't complain really.
Our only problem is that an agent we run at the office isn't yet supported by 1703 so we are having to wait a little while before we upgrade them all.0 -

1. an upgrade can only be called an upgrade if it gives some benefit. Removing Control Panel from the quick access toolbar? Yep, great job.
2. is rebuilding your computer twice a year progress?If you put your general location in your Profile, somebody here may be able to come and help you.0 -

Settings - Personalisation - Taskbar - Replace Command Prompt etc. - Toggle on or off.
Pointless though as AFAIK it works the same if you want to run a cmd...Drinking Rum before 10am makes you

Mint is a better brand than Ubuntu (Debian was better than that) so maybe this will be the year of Unix, after all they have been saying it for about 35 years!
I am still waiting for the GUI clone of Win7, not just the superficial one, every dialog plus of course 100% compatibility.Thanks, don't you just hate people with sigs !0 -
Why do Linux users feel the need to point out that they use Linux whenever someone starts a W10 thread ?!
Makes me chuckle (and yawn)
Disclaimer : I also use Linux for some stuff0
