I was saying that kinda tongue in cheek because OEMs are slowly but surely eliminating the DVD drives in machines. My daughter has a Lenovo that's a couple or three years old that has no DVD drive. We had to buy her a "portable" one so she could install Paint Shop Pro and a couple other things.
We have three HP computers at the Senior Activity Center that can't boot from a USB Drive (they're that old), so I had to use a DVD. Now I think I'll be able to mount the ISO and go from there.
Did upgrade 1809 to 1903 worked great. Did a 15 minute clean install usb 1903 also works great. I like the new desktop color.
I've tried it all to no avail. I also checked all the logs (event viewer and logs under c:\windows) and couldn't find a single useful clue. But lo and behold, this night it suddenly worked despite the fact that I didn't do anything different than before. Do I know why? Definitely not but I'm certainly not going to complain. Let's just assume Windows fixed itself
As with all previous upgrades, the Windows 7 games are uninstalled because they are supposed to be replaced by the Win 10 versions. It's an ongoing battle that I side-stepped by using the XP version of Solitaire
....when i clicked on settings then apps it closed setting. tried via apps and features and that just shut down just tried it again (5th time) and apps and features is working now
strange???
No, not strange - it's a known bug. The fix will be in the next cumulative update, currently being tested by Insiders in the Release Preview ring.
Cumulative Update KB4497935 Windows 10 v1903 build 18362.145 - May 24
If you want the old games and some applications, Calc, Etc take a look at the Free Winareo Tweaker, that will install them for use painlessly
