Yep

tried later in the day and I am installing 10041 now


Any sign of an ISO?



Not that I saw

'en_windows_10_pro_10041_x64_dvd.iso' was posted to my FTP site this
morning so it does exist.

There are download links at the bottom of this page for the new W10
iso

Not to cluck like a chicken, but the links are not from M$

And when I went to shut down, I was told that wuapp was
preventing my shutdown and I told it to do so anyway.

Hmmm. I gave me wuapp's icon, but not its name. That
needs improving, especially since the icon is a "generic"
icon.

Be fun to see how this thing recovers tomorrow. Put
a wuapp shortcut on my desktop





From the time I checked for updates, until it was downloaded and
installed was about 3 1/2 hrs


Is the rumored and dreaded "Metro" back?



That's why I did the update , simply to see if that was true...
but I am happy to say it was a false report.

The new build is not much different from the old one.

Boots to the "standard" desktop. If you want the tiles though , just
left click on the (unlabeled) "start" button.

"Standard" menu, just right click on it



What I hated about Win8 (without Classic Shell) was that with one wrong
click...the tiles took over the screen and I'd have to hunt for the
desktop icon to get back. A major PITA for me and 99% of the people I
know who have Win8.


Win10 behaves considerably better

Hi Philo,

I forces myself to hit the win key to get back to the
Desktop. But then a again, I hit the win key for so
many things, Metro can fly back and forth two or three
times. AAAAHHHHHH !!!!

1+

I wish they'd get rid of Metro completely for
non-touch screen displays.

Correct, the last time there was a new build I went to the MS site and
all they had was the original

Hi Philo,

I am all updated now.

I am not telling any difference, except I am getting
a pop up about Windows Defender having been turned
off.

Bit Defender is still working

I got the same thing, but then, I'm running AVG. I had to reinstall it
(AVG), and then the Defender message went away and AVG took over.
