New Windows 10 Insider Preview Fast+Slow Build 18362 (19H1) - Mar. 22 Insider

Hi folks

@er557

USB DVD drive can be had for almost pennies these days
Less than 16 EUR and certainly you don't have to pay more than 20 EUR including VAT / Sales Tax etc.

-- If you can use an SSD in the space of the old DVD caddy and boot from it even a quite old laptop will be noticeably better in improvement

Note though my previous remarks in previous post on this thread about IDE / SATA interface if you are going to attempt this.

SSD -- even a mega cheap one say 128 GB , DVD 4.7GB so apart from speed etc capacity is even on these small SSD's around 20 times more -- plenty for music etc.

If you keep the DVD caddy you can open it (via eject / hardware button) as if there were a DVD in it and swap the SSD's -- much simply better than carrying a couple of SSD's around than some clunky old CD's / DVD's. Just RIP the old stuff.

When mounting the SSD's ensure the connector is also inside the caddy so easy access when swapping. Most of these DVD caddy's have penty of space for Molex / Sata connectors etc. If you move the laptop around just mount the SSD on to the DVD caddy with a bit of velcro which keeps the SSD stable when carrying the laptop and also makes it easy to swap SSD's if you want a removable SSD facility.

I've done this on an old Sony VAIO laptop - nice to have removable SSD's that work at "Internal SATA speed".. The VAIO thinks also it's an internal HDD so no probs with booting / installing Windows on it.

makes a great Test Rig for these builds which are coming in thick and fast. !!!!

Hey guys,

There are several visual (animation) bugs since 1803 that have also survived 1809. Really curious if the following visual bugs are still present in the latest version of 19H1.


Especially the one around 0:19 is annoying.

And also the following subtle transition bug of the windows in Task View

Are these still present in this release of 19H1?

It all seems to be ok with me. I've tried pinning / unpinning showing and hiding taskview and all my taskbar icons shuffle right when it is shown and left when it is hidden. Same with the other buttons for search and Cortana. This installation has been upgraded in place since the original Technical Preview and uses Open Shell for the menu..

Thanks for the info.

Could be an issue with Start10 then. I will try disabling the service and rebooting to see if this issue still persists.

It's possible that I have reached the limit of pinned apps/programs and that is why they aren't shifting to the left when I enable Task View? Not sure if Windows even has a limit for pinned taskbar items but it wouldn't surprise me if it did.

So they are skipping RP again then.

Oh man, I really hope not. Hopefully this is just an unfounded rumor...
