Announcing Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 10130 for PCs Insider

Dude said:

I was so impressed that upgrading to this build was flawless and I had no issues. So boredom kicks in, let me roll back, update again but grab the ESD to make an ISO.

Well the rollback failed miserably. I did reinstall, upgrade and grab the ESD. Now my taskbar will not autohide....that's what I get for tinkering

Try this work around that I found on a Microsoft forum. Tap the Search Box or Search Icon on the Taskbar and then close Cortana. This worked for me. However, the next time I click the Start Button it will break auto-hide again. At least this work around is better than signing out/ signing in or restarting.

Press and hold down the left Shift key while spamming the F8 key, works every time...

Or even just Restart the computer by holding the shift key.

I just tried this and it didn't work in either OS. I have a duel boot. I held down the left shift and kept tapping the F8 key. It did cause the boot to slow but didn't launch the safe mode at all.

I was testing the "Microsoft PDF to Print" and when I did this app was no longer there?

Did I miss this in the known issues or they were taking this out?

Never even heard of it, Don. Oh! is it that orange thing that pops up before I've installed my Nuance PDF reader? Or Adobe Reader?

I think it's gone because for some time now, when I've opened a PDF, that blasted Edge grabs it and opens it! I hate that thing! In order to keep it from grabbing what I don't want it to, I have to go into default programs and point to my PDF reader of choice as default.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrr! Microsoft is messing with the way I do things on my computer without asking for my permission!

Yeah, did the same thing. Went into Control Panel > Default Programs and set desktop Iinternet Explorer as my default browser. Also use Firefox as 2nd.

Apparently 'Adobe Reader' pure is now defunct. All Adobe offer is: 'Adobe Acrobat Reader', and while it does the job, it is painful to use. By default the Tool Bar opens in the right panel, and no switch to turn it off permanently ... so the Adobe forum says. Heaps of missing options.

What possesses them to mess with an app/program that already works perfectly? If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Change for the sake of change is insanity, invented by over paid, bored programmers.

Print to PDF is not an app and it is not ... simply select Print in any app which allows printing and select Print as a PDF from the list of Printers.

I already have that option in my HP printer, by simply clicking Scan.

The MS pdf feature isn't bad, but IMHO not as good as Adobe, and not necessary. I guess if you don't want the bother of installing Adobe it will do the job.
