Issues I have at the moment:

I had to revert to 18965. Last straw to break the camel's back was Store not working. I could not install two of to me extremely essential apps, whatever I tried.



Built a new deployment image with my settings and software, deployed it, now happily back in 18965.

Hi there

@johngalt

I'd suggest also because English has so many variations it's easy to say something in one dialect which means something quite horrendous in another.

Mind you one of the strangest sayings I saw was in a Canteen / Commissary / refectory in Texas ( just outside Houston actually) with a notice to the staff -- please do not wash your hands in this lavatory which was a sort of small "kitchen sink" before preparing food for customers. !!! The Latin derivation of the Texas Lavatory would be correct -- a washing system from the Latin Lava - wash -- but if you go to the UK for example a lavatory is a W.C -- so you'd get some very strange looks if you were advocating washing hands in a "Lavatory" bowl / sink placed in the kitchen.

However I'm sure people on these forums can judge by the posts whether remarks are intended to be offensive or might cause some mis-interpretation to accidentally cause unintended offence - especially by non Native English speakers.

At least on these Forums most folks seem a tolerant lot and offense is not taken when it seems there's a genuine confusion by the poster as to the meaning of some english words which have totally different meanings depending on where you are. !!

Cheers

This is indeed true. We've had a few flare-ups here but nothing nearly as bad as at other places. And the difference in dialects of English alone is a nightmare in and of itself, forget throwing other languages into the mix lol.

Me too!!! Lol.

On another topic, I got blasted with a horrible reality today. And I am wondering if anyone else was experiencing the same thing on their systems. I went to restart my computer today, and it took more than an hour and a half. So I was thoroughly confused, and tried it again, to see if it was just a random problem. But nope, the restart slowed down to a crawl in processing codes to restart my system. Another hour and a half later it was back up. Anybody else experience this???

Check and see if WER is trying to run in the bg, is the first thing that comes to my mind....

Of course, also the event log to see what exactly is going on, especially in terms of failing apps / services.

did you get Windows admin center working OK -- it's fine on my 18970 system (1005 W10 for Workstations)

Yes, works perfectly in 18965.

For me, WAC causing GSOD every time, and not being able to install Windows Terminal and Code Writer made decision easy. I'll skip 18970, hoping that next build (maybe later today or tomorrow, latest on Tuesday?) will not break everything for me like 18970 did.
