Windows 10 October 2018 Update rollout now paused

Kari said:

Microsoft claims that only 0.01% of users were affected, or as Windows Insider blog says (read more) "one one-hundred of one percent". In other words, that would mean that only 100 users out of 100,000 would have been affected. As we know now, that is absolutely not true, the real number being much (I repeat: MUCH!) higher.

should be: 100 users out of 1,000,000 (or 1 user out of 10,000)

0.1% is one hundredth, 0.01% is one thousandth (@Kari's text should really say 'one one-hundredth of one percent, but i am being pedantic). Whatever, I think he is right - 100 out of 100,000, or 1 out of 1,000(same thing)

1% is one per cent, i.e., one hundredth. That's what 'per cent' means. 0.1% is one tenth of one percent, or one thousandth. Come on people, this isn't rocket science.

@muchomurka @sgage Yes, you are right - it is late here, and I'm a little inebriated

Lot's of people on Reddit complaining of Audio driver issues after updating. In my experience these big updates always require a re-installation of my Soundcard Drivers. I'm used to it, but it's another area that needs some serious improvement from MS.
