My own theory is that most of it is down to how the user either installs the updates or some funky or old hardware they are using. I have never had any such show stoppers while clean installing major updates.

So far FCU has been stable for me.

How to go about clean installing this fall update ? Since i can only download ISO version 16299.15 not 16299.19 so then i have to reapply this Oct. 17 update afterwards.

I have no feedback since I have no intention of being an early upgrader!

The machine that I run 10 on has had zero problems. Everyone is going to experience different issues. If you do not want to have the machine immediately upgrade to the latest updates, defer them. No one else can do much more than state the same thing over and over to you. Posting on here has zero effect on what anyone will state differently.

It was put out by Microsoft that they would issue the ISO after the new update got released, so that it does not load down their servers. You download the ISO as always and do a clean install and you would have the latest copy for that refresh period.

Never stated that it was. You need to read what I stated. It was put out a week before this update, that Microsoft was going to make the ISO available after they got done pushing out to the majority of machines.

Only issue I had was Activation issue in relation to my Windows 10 Home UEFI key in Bios, was a pain getting PC back to Pro, but with the Help with Microsoft Answer Tech chat/remote assistance, finally got it reactivated on Pro, only took from 1p.m. eastern til 3p.m. eastern on October 17th to get it fully sorted.

I don't think that has to do with my 3rd party antivirus i'm using, just with the stupid UEFI key in bios, that everytime I do clean install picks that up and then won't activate lol.

Thought I am willing to use Defender if I'll have less problems in the coming weeks with cumulative updates

Just don't wanna go thru that activation issue again, almost was like gonna say forget it, and just go purchase a new Pro copy
