Are there any universal Windows apps, or instant messenger applications, that support Facebook Chat properly? I've tried a bunch but they're either missing features (emoticons or stickers etc.) or just don't work properly.

http://blogs.windows.com/bloggingwindows/2015/08/18/announcing-windows-10-insider-preview-build-10525/ New Windows 10 build 10525 out for Insiders. Edit: Heh, had to uninstall it, messed with my net connection. Looks like anything that tried to use IE's connection settings, like IE itself or iTunes, wouldn't connect. Firefox worked fine. Odd.

I've got the same issue with this build that I did with the last. Firefox will connect to the internet and load any site, as will Chrome. Edge and IE will not load specific things, like google.com. They will load random sites. Windows Update can't connect to the internet, nor can the Store. I'd like to stay on this build - how do I fix this? I've been clutching at straws here. I reset the ip settings in the Command Prompt and uninstalled then reinstalled the driver. Suggestions? Odd, uninstalling NOD32 fixed it. I wonder why it only stopped certain pages loading? How do you get the title bar to reflect the accent colour? WattsvilleBlues fucked around with this message at 23:35 on Aug 27, 2015 |

Build https://www.thurrott.com/windows/windows-10/6115/microsoft-issues-windows-10-build-10547-for-pcs-to-insiders-on-the-fast-ring One thing I've noticed not detailed there: icons for Modern apps now have more colour in them, like Mail and Store. Looks quite nice. For some reason, this new Show more tiles option for the Start menu doesn't actually allow me to have wide tiles side by side, even though it's meant to be one of the features of this build.

I just downloaded the Windows 10 Pro x64 UK English ISO using the media creation tool. It differs in hash and file size compared with the ISO I downloaded of the exact same product on 29th July. Any idea what's been added (today's ISO is 3.28GB; the July ISO is 3.12GB)?

EpicCodeMonkey posted:Currently leaving it to install some 200+ updates, just so I can download Win10 for the third time and retry an upgrade yet again -- and then rewipe it to start afresh with Win10. Definitely the most frustrating thing I've ever had to do on a PC (and I'm a career embedded software developer, who has serviced family WinME machines). I'm pretty sure that once Windows 7 is installed you can just download the Windows 10 ISO/media creation tool and get going. Without installing 6 years of updates.

https://www.thurrott.com/windows/windows-10/7122/windows-10-fall-update-is-set-for-november-releasequote:And unlike the post-RTM Windows Insider builds we’ve been getting, the Fall Update will ship as a cumulative update, not as a full build. I don't care the if the update comes through Windows Update as a patch or whatever, but they'd release updated ISOs for clean installs, wouldn't they?  Oh, didn't see this bit: quote:Recovery tools. The Push Button Reset feature will be updated so that resetting the PC will reset it to the Windows 10 Fall Update, not the July RTM release. If you upgraded from Windows 8.1, you will lose PC maker customizations. (This won’t happen on Windows 10 PCs.) That is great.

Does anyone know if the November update has started rolling out? I'm on 10586 already so I'm probably already running the final bits, but I'm due to update a few machines from Windows 7 to 10 this week and I'd rather get the new ISO and save myself installing 4 months of updates.

Two tips for anyone wanting to download the ISO of the November update using the Media Creation Tool: 1. There is a new version of the tool; seems to be a single download now instead of separate 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the tool itself. Earlier, I tried using the Media Creation Tool I downloaded a few days ago to get the new ISO and it just downloaded the RTM release of Windows 10. 2. The Tool no longer provides an option to download Pro or Home editions separately, but the ISO you download will allow you to select either Pro or Home edition during installation. I had to format due to some horrendous system instability and the ISO I downloaded went without a hitch. Nice to have only a few days' updates to download instead of 4 months.

Factor Mystic posted:I am motivated to figure out a solution especially in light of all the copy paste cargo cult "solutions" I'm finding online. Really irritating. I take it you've tried System Restore? I was having your issues a few days ago and spent hours trying to sort it, though I also had horrendous system instability. I just formatted and it's all fine now of course, but you're probably quicker doing that than spending more time trying to track down the issues.

While this Windows ADK update addresses several known issues present in the initial release of the Windows 10 ADK (PowerShell, MDAC) there is a serious issue with it that blocks the following Configuration Manager OS deployment scenarios: Hopefully it's just a temporary issue that Microsoft is doing their usual piss-poor job of explaining. I grabbed the ISOs for Core and Pro in both 32- and 64-bit when they became available earlier this month.

EoRaptor posted:The rollout is staggered, to keep load on the update servers manageable. MS also halted the rollout for a while, so things have gotten further delayed. To clarify this further, once the November Update upgrades you to build 1511, as well as not being able to roll back to a pre-Windows 10 operating system, if you "Reset" the computer to factory settings or whatever, it will give you a clean install of Windows 10. This is pretty good - if you need to reset, you won't have to go back to a machine with a bunch of OEM-installed crapware and you should have a nice clean, fast and stable install. Unless I've misread something along the way.

Local search has been a joke since Windows 8. I can't believe there's still no way to have it always search your local stuff first without doing to a web search. At least in 8 you could hit Winkey + F or whatever for local files. It's tempting to install Start10 since it gives the option of the Windows 7 search behaviour, which does the trick every time.

I'm on the latest Insider build (11082) and that specific option isn't there, though it still made no difference when I disabled it on older builds. It stopped showing web results but didn't show me local results til I clicked My Stuff. I don't know why they insist on making it so poo poo. Josh Lyman posted:Just upgrade to Win10 already. It's so much better than Win8. I'm already on 10. I never minded Windows 8 (except for the local search  ).
