Windows 10 Fall Creators Update - wait

I ran into that issue in the past. If you use DDU you can toggle off the default installation of video drivers by the MS update. Never had that issue since. There is probably another way to toggle it off directly form the registry or the shell but I never looked into it since the option bundled with DDU worked great.

I don't typically have the issue as GPU drivers don't update on their own. It's just on the full updates that it seems to show up.

It's a small thing, but it's somewhat annoying for folks who are anal about doing custom driver installs.
 
Did anybody find that doing a fresh USB install from this latest "update" is funky? This is the second install I've done with it that just seemed a bit off until it managed to do the first round of user initiated updates....

Silly things like getting a default browser application error when edge was the only thing installed, bing hanging in edge when trying to install chrome, and scroll not working in the settings window....

Might just be a bad install on this stick.

I haven't tried installing from that build, but could it be that Microsoft really doesn't want you using Chrome?

That's what I thought when I first ran into the issue, but it goes away after the first batch of updates, and there's other things that edge doesn't want to do.....
 
My laptop force updated yesterday, no problems.

My desktop (USB installed w/ updates selected, in the first week of Jan) still wont pull it, and I'm fine with that.
 
Even the security updates are getting irritating lately. Just had one disable the webcam on a laptop but said the update failed to install.
The good thing was by failing 5 times in a row it forced me to look up the update in question which allowed me to see that inadvertently pooching webcams (and other integrated USB devices) was a known issue. Luckily there was an update that fixed the update.

I really don't remember the old service pack up updates being as bad as the Win10 update cycle, but maybe that's because I'd wait a month before installing such things...

I think it's just that they they got rid of all their testing engineers and gave their jobs to us. It's part of their new business model.
