WinKey/A do it for you, Keith?

That's another one. Esc use to close it but that's not working and nor did it in the last build. Had to use Winkey/D. I hate these 1st world problems.

No Tony even right click and open didn't work. Clock wouldn't open or the start menu. Had to revert the video driver to an MS basic one and it's OK now but will only run in 4:3 aspect ratio. I'll do some backups and have a play later.

After the successful update to 17083 I ran Disk Cleanup and after it completed the machine spontaneously rebooted. Then windows.old still and I deleted it with unlocker. Here are the contents of the recycle bin.

Doing a full backup now. I need some sleep. I consider this the best update experience to date with the exception of the spontaneous reboot. I wish the best of luck to everybody. If anybody wants an ISO for any reason PM me.

Am I the only one seeing it downloading the same build I aldready have installed? Namely 17074.1002?

Did you install that build? If not, it’s going to install before you are offered 17083.1000.

I used UUPDump to update. Right now it's been 51 minutes since I hit install and it's at 84%. UUPDump is so much faster on my computer than using the Windows Update.

I see. A video thing.

All this excitement wore me out. Nap time. :)

@bordi, you must feel good being able to go for it.

Yes mate thanks, it’s a great feeling after all the problems with the old motherboard:)

Thanks It looks like there are two builds of 17074. I suppose the 1002 should have told me. I guess I will find out shortly. I'm surprised its not going straight to 17083 considering I am on 17074.1000. Seems a bit extreme I must admit.

All updated!

There are some issues with the search box in task bar. It stops responding. I try to search for snipping tool but takes me to bing.

Restart will fix most of issues
