Klyith posted:a now has a standard App Permissions menu so you can turn off microphone use and also the background app setting. That makes cortana fully quit if you've turned off the cortana taskbar box. It's as good as uninstalling it, pretty much. Cortana now is an app that can actually be uninstalled without affecting search.

wolrah posted:I also agree that it's unlikely Microsoft is explicitly adding cracks to Defender. They do. And classify them as hack tools. Same with many nirsoft utilities. But you can easily add them to exclusions. The reason, I think, is that the same definitions are used in business settings. And in those cases it's better to be safe than sorry.

Kerning Chameleon posted:I'm getting tired how having to pave and clean install W10 on my 2013-era IdeaPad every six months because it consistently fails to install basic security updates for some reason. 1. Try using the official Microsoft installer. Also as you mention 6 months (when Microsoft releases the big upgrade updates) try clean installing on clean disk (remove all partitions) 2. Try not using any cleanup scripts, debloaters, antibotnets or tweakers. As you talk about Secure Boot you probably have uefi so convert disk to gpt and use efi loader CatHorse fucked around with this message at 09:54 on Sep 9, 2020 |

Doctor_Fruitbat posted:October update is out, went from starting download to logging back in post-update in about two minutes, so either it's seriously lightweight or they finally sorted out the update process like people were always talking about? Like last years october update it essentially adds a marker that switches on already existing features. Like activating dlc that's already on disk.

Ape Agitator posted:Or am I misunderstanding and you can't make modifications to drive B on another device. Would drive B's files be readable on another device? Would it freak out if the two drives had differences while separated? You are misunderstanding. Storage Spaces is a more flexible version of software RAID. And the drives are working as a set. It's not what you want.

Canine Blues Arooo posted:Microsoft once again forgot that the OS has to actually *do something* instead of just be pretty for the lowest common denominator. But at least the design team really 'obsessed over every single pixel'. That will definitely make it functional... How many apps do you use at any time? The main ones are pinned to taskbar. The rest are launched by pressing START button and typing a few letters.

Canine Blues Arooo posted:Yes, if you have a setup that is equally functional on a tablet or even a phone, then I guess the new Start Menu is fine. But I don't need a phone. I need a computer. Preferably one that does things better than a phone. Even if Start Search wasn't busy being lovely more than half the time, the reality is that a lot of common search results will bring up duplicate results, which may or may not be distinguishable in the search box. You are already using an alternative start menu, continue doing that. And what does pressing hardware windows button and typing letters on hardware keyboard followed by pressing hardware enter has to do with touch/tablets or phones?
