Windows 10 October 2018 Update rollout now paused

JohnnyGui · 04 Nov 2018

I like how each newly discovered issue gets mentioned in articles all over the internet now. Perhaps this is a more effective way than the Feedback Hub.

Well it would seem that no one from MS even looks at The Hub.

Exactly. That's the significance. There's a scheduled task, but it doesn't succeed in 1803 and needs a trigger adding in 1709.

Nor in 1809, it seems

This is interesting - the version of Skip&Sketch from Insider versions that allows you to save files as jpeg and gif as well as png has been ported to 1809.

Have same Windows 1809 / 17763.107 and Sketch don't work. After shortcut Win+Shift+S, I can mark (for example) square, but in same moment same square vanish.

Hi there

Anyway I'm sticking to advice most people will sensibly follow -- before making any changes to your computers --have decent clean backups.
Cheers

Clean backups?....ISOs are readily available

Hi there

Backups to revert system if your update / install either doesn't work or you want to return to previous version of Windows without having to re-install everything again.

Cheers

Hi jimbo…..my post emphasises your use of the word CLEAN.
Older ISO versions are also available.

This is interesting - it seems it is not a full port of the Insider version as the settings menu does not have the screen border option mentioned in the 18272 blog.

However, with the ability to save as different files, it now has all the snipping tool functionality plus more.

It just need the garish start splash screen to be condensed to a neat bar.

I am now using it exclusively.

Some of us who are in the fast ring or Skip Ahead don't have those three options either, @Brink already mentioned in this post that he doesn't have them, I'm not sure, but it could be a mistake in the blog and those functions will come later, such as @Brink also said in another comment.
