![]() Members of the free Windows Insider program who get early releases of a new version will also be able to share their feedback with Microsoft on the new Start menu once they can try it in action. It's still a work in progress and Microsoft is encouraging users to weigh in.Ī feedback form on the new Windows Start menu lets you vote on the new changes and suggest further enhancements. The free Anniversary Update, which marks the first full year of the OS, also promises improvements to the Hello login feature and the Cortana voice assistant as well as support for the HoloLens augmented-reality headset. The Settings and Account features are also hidden, requiring you to click a hamburger icon (the icon with three horizontal bars) to reveal them. I will put Win 10 into a VM with the anticipation of watching the Borg … err Microsoft prove that resistance is indeed futile to Win 10 users of the Pro variety.The Start menu in the Windows 10 Anniversary Update displays an All Apps menu right from the get-go, eliminating the need to click its icon to display it, according to an animated gif tweeted Monday by Microsoft software engineer Jen Gentleman. Therefore my VM server is going to become a Win 7 machine for at least the next four years. To ensure the PC fully shuts down, select the power button on the sign-in screen or on the Start menu and select Shut down. Why? Between last build and this build MS has narrowed the paths of resistance. The Update Assistant can help you update to the latest version of Windows 10. This new cpu is needs to stay up and running 24/7 because it is hosting several iterations of Windows via VirtualBox in an environment that often runs in 24 hour stretches.Īt 6:05am this morning I made an ‘executive decision’ on the use of Windows 10 as VM server …. Because I’ve played “IT guy” w/ Windows machines since 3.1, I get to wear the IT hat once again. #3) I am part of two-person shop which relies 100% on a variety of Windows OS’ to get its work done. One or the other of both invoked the desired results. I did not reboot, but I did manually click on “check for updates” in the Windows Updates panel and also “Update Definitions” in Win Defender. What did I do to make this work? (besides editing Group Policy?) I rcv’d a request to allow DL a definitions update for Win Defender at 5:55am this morning. ![]() I am dyslexic so allow me to translate this bass-ackwards wording: “This setting shouldn’t work for anything after XP.”īut it does. “Windows XP Professional Service Pack 1 or At least Windows 2000 Service Pack 3” Yes I can confirm that using the Local Group Policy Editor’s ‘Configure Auto Updates’ setting still works despite (a) no immediate feedback in the Windows Update window and (b) despite the nebulous wording in the “Supported On” box which says #2) WOW, did I stumble into a hornets nest w/ Win 10 Pro ver. intelligent problem-solving discourse w/ ppl who understand the concept of testing, re-testing and learning to adapt to a moving target – which sadly is what Win 10 is. I breath a sigh of relief.ĭEF: “no BS” …. I have spent a full day reading up on “the problem” and yours is the only current and 100% no B.S. When new updates are available, the user will receive a systray message. I also tried the setting Notify for download and notify for install in Windows 10 1607, and it worked as expected. Even after several hours, no new updates appeared in the Update History. With the help of the networking monitoring tool, I could see that Windows downloaded a couple of megabytes from Windows Update, but then stopped. However, when I disabled the Automatic Updates via Group Policy, no downloads were shown. The Windows Update settings usually displays the updates that are currently downloaded. When I gave my test machine access to the internet, without enabling any update policy, Windows Update always began by downloading new updates after a couple of minutes. However, based on my tests, the Anniversary Update still supports these policies. If you apply any of the policies to Windows 10 1607, the Windows Updates settings don't show any information about the configuration. Use the Windows Feedback app to tell us which features you love, which features you could do without, or when something could be better. You can kindly provide us with your feedback in the feedback app. End user cant change Windows Update settings in Windows 10 1511 We would like to inform you that you cannot change the Start menu to the older design of Start menu in Windows 10 Anniversary update. ![]()
