So, the GWUX app is gone now on my Windows 7, but I'm still seeing
messages that it tried to download Windows 10, and it failed after all these weeks. Anybody else still seeing them? Yousuf Khan |

Yousuf Khan Is this via Windows Update ? As a test, I went through the GWX sequence on my laptop, and it used the newer method, of throwing a banner across Windows Update, announcing Win10 was hiding in there. And one of the items in Windows Update was a "3GB download" or so. And at the time, that might have been 10586.420. One of the issues was, my laptop video is ATI HD 4200, and drivers for that stopped just before Win10 era. I did get Win10 running, but the colors were washed out (too bright), and I couldn't adjust things back to how they were in Windows 7 appearance-wise. But the biggest kicker, was the battery life in Win10 was a lot less, because the processor was busy for something like 12 hours, doing "maintenance". Maybe if you use a Windows Update reset script, it'll stop ? Because it would no longer have GWX to put it back in that state. Try the sevenforums.com/tutorials for a reset script. The other thing you could try is the GWX stopper control panel (third party), and use it to clean out any labeled materials. Paul |

Otherwise you wouldn't have posted this because any "insensitive prick" is not going to be affected by what you say!!

But the biggest kicker, was the battery life in Win10 was a lot less, because the processor was busy for something like 12 hours, doing "maintenance". I had problems on my laptop too, but it was for keyboard and touchpad problems, rather than video drivers. A lot of the keyboard macros designed to control the features of the laptop, like screen brightness, sound volume, etc. stopped working in Win 10. I think that there was some kind of Toshiba app that ran in the background that got killed by Win 10, that controlled these things. As for the touchpad, I couldn't get many features to work right, despite trying every Synaptics driver for Win 10 on the planet. So I think when it comes to laptops, I'm not going to bother to upgrade it. However, my desktop is equally perplexing how I'm going to upgrade that properly. The desktop can really benefit from the upgraded features of Win 10, but because of my Users folder setup, it will fail at every major update. Yousuf Khan |
