Has anyone seen any "major" changes to 10 yet?? So far I've not seen any.
Well, for me it works somewhat faster, some apps are definitely starting faster, and I have a feeling the boot has become somewhat faster. Not as fast as my W7 was, but faster than RTM.
tested printer this morn and everything seams to be working
mpc-hc x64 had disappeared so reinstalled and that is working
my Wi-Fi was not working well and discovered the update had undisabled my intel Wi-Fi so disabled it again as I use bt dongle with 5mhz for faster downloads
still can not use scroll in edge and most windows apps but works alright in file explorer, palemoon, firefox
I'm waiting for an Insider build with interesting changes/features.
Tenforums had a guide on changing titlebar colors for months now :).
No, I was just going to ask. MS did change something with memory management.
Memory Manager Improvements:
In Windows 10, we have added a new concept in the Memory Manager called a compression store, which is an in-memory collection of compressed pages. This means that when Memory Manager feels memory pressure, it will compress unused pages instead of writing them to disk. This reduces the amount of memory used per process, allowing Windows 10 to maintain more applications in physical memory at a time. This also helps provide better responsiveness across Windows 10. The compression store lives in the System process’s working set. Since the system process holds the store in memory, its working set grows larger exactly when memory is being made available for other processes. This is visible in Task Manager and the reason the System process appears to be consuming more memory than previous releases.

Time to report what I've observed on this new build:
1) The blurry text issue, at 125% Zoom on High DPI displays, has not been fixed.
2) The live tile of the Calendar App is dead. It does not show the current date, it does not show anything. It used to work. Now it does not.
3) The live tile of the Mail App is not working properly. It notifies me for a new e-mail, I open the Mail App, read it and delete it. It's still showing on the Live tile. I reboot. It's still showing it on the live tile...
4) The Calendar App is still showing the temperatures in Fahrenheit and not in Celsius.
All this in my upgraded Windows 10 Pro installation, on my second SSD, which I keep as untouched as possible. Absolutely no modification or tweak has been applied on this installation, and I have only two programs installed: Chrome and CCleaner. Not even Office is installed.
I have already reported these issues.
I would like to ask a question to all those who are using Office 2013. When I installed it, on my main OS, it was not showing me, in the Start Menu, the programs (Word, Excel, Access, etc) as separate, independent programs. It put them under one folder called "Office 2013", if I recall correctly. So when I was trying to find "Excel 2013" for example, by using the letter "E" from the Start Menu, this was not possible. Is this happening to you? Is there any way I can fix this?
Thank you.
