People often think that the list of "fixed issues" is exhaustive and complete.

And people may also think what's in that list is correct. Sometimes it isn't. They put things in there and they're wrong about it, because they're relaying information from the actual technical departments (they're just the PR department) and things can be lost in translation or just botched.

Hi there
IMO seems a bit pointless to do that type of exercise as part of a release process -- if after all these years WU still isn't working properly one really has to worry about the quality of Project control and Management at Ms.

I know one isn't forced to install updates via the Windows insider program - but surely there's always something they can do to improve the OS etc when releasing an update.

It just seems so pointless and a waste of project resources to me - that would be better spent on areas in the OS where Ms still admits improvements need to be done - for starters can't they do something about File explorer which really looks awfully dated now - and also really get to grips with why so many home users have trouble getting networking or even the simplest file sharing systems to work properly (just follow the Networking and sharing section).

Hi there
Surely they do "Internal system testing" before letting a release out of the door -- basic I.T management - 101 !!!!! (works for projects both big and small -- Ms should try it sometime --it really does work !!)

Seems they don't use it though.

Anyway the release seemed to install for me without any issues -- would like the next one to have something more interesting in it -- like for example a decent functioning (persistent across re-boots) sandbox system and an improvement to the WSL where you could install distros of your choice - with a GUI .

Even if these things don't become mainstream there's nothing wrong on Ms putting some of these things into these types of releases - mainstream users won't be on this program anyway.

Cheers

Hi Brink.

I clicked on the link that you've shown here but this is what I get...



Any ideas please?

Thanks.

My DNS wouldn't work on this build. It could ping like 8.8.8.8 but never find DNS sites. Rolled it back and all is working.

look work for me
