#60
Updated, with no issues, from 18362.295. I had skipped the .329 CU.
No Search, no high CPU usage problems.
Found 2.65GB Update backup files and cleaned it.
So far, so good!
I originally updated from the .295 CU to .329 CU and played with .329 CU to get the high CPU usage back to normal.
Today I updated to this .356 CU and had issues again with the Start Menu slowing down and not getting any search functions working after about 30 min of usage.
So I restored my PC from an image made of 18362.295 and updated directly from that build to this new build 18362.356 and no issues so far all seems to be very stable.
hope that helps others...
Hi folks
Powershell seems to have some "strange" suggestion -- any idea peeps !!!!
Edge -- I only ever use it for pdf files runs like a marble is a pool of molasses -- goodness knows what its doing because even on an 8 core machine the fan starts going bonkers until I close edge down and the machine runs quietly again.
I've re-booted several times to test whether this is an initial problem -- sometimes - especially on clean installs which this one was, a few re-boots are often needed to finish what are sometimes processes estabishing optimum operating parameters and files for the machine behind the scene -- Windows has quite good "A.I" type of capability where it attempts to optimise itself by often learning what you are running and making a reasonable guess via "prefetch" . Of course conspiracy theoreists here will say that's all data being sent to Ms === I'm not sure if Ms is interested in 14 billion users say using file explorer regularly !!!!!!!
Anyway would be interested in what the powershell is wanting me to use .
Added -- seems any browser when attempting to do an upload - even from a local directory also starts the machine going Bonkers --even FF which is my preferred browser seems to increas severely CPU load.
Putting this release back to a VM and reverting until browsing fixed -- Browsing using this release so far is a hideously painful nightmare -- clean release too so something with Ms's interner access isn't working. Using FTP and SSL to a Linux server from this release Internet browsing is fine -- so in my system something is seriously hosed.

Hi there
@CountMike
Thanks for the info -- probably will try it on a VM. I can't continue this release on my current machine until the problem with browsers is fixed -- IE 11, Edge and FF ver 68. I wonder also because I installed NEW so will only have .NET 4.8 on it and could the .net functionality be causing me aggro.
Anyway I'm going to "Park" this machine and try creating an update from the previous release which was functioning perfectly OK. (That also has .Net3.5 on it).
Mght be a red herring but it's the first time I've got such hideous performance out of a New install -- I've only got the browsers, Macrium, Office 2019 inc project and visio. I haven't installed things like Photoshop yet .
Anyway Internet experience too painfully slow on this machine - so imaging it and then proceding with update of the older relese to see if that's any better.
(1 Min to post this on the Forum -- on my Linux server couple of secs at the most --Internet seriously hosed up -- no viruses etc at this end either).
I have a nominal 1Gb/s on ISP so no prbs there either with the provider.
Cheers

Just like "banger" posted #34 I had to resort to the inplace upgrade method and it worked fine although my PC took 90 minutes to get to my log-in screen. At least I am up-to-date now at build 18362.356.
Before I did this inplace upgrade method I had tried all the suggested 'fixes' but updates KB4512941 and its successor KB4515384 would not install on my machine. They 'Failed' every time I tried and I was stuck at build 295.
I hope future windows updates are not as problematic since I do not want to have to do an inplace upgrade every time I need to update Win10.
