  1. I thought there was still a problem with the way Build 2004 trims the SSD way too often. Also, the reason I did an upgrade rather than a fresh install was because I had my Creative drivers set just right with the soundfonts I like to use. I've been slow to give up hardware synth because it just sounds more real to me.
  2. For the last six months, I've been using Windows 10 Pro. I updated a "perfect" installation of Windows 7 Pro to Windows 10 that is now Version 10.0.18363 Build 1909. This thing has been buggy, slow and needs a daily reboot to work right. My machine is a "vintage" home build with an Asus 5A97 R2.0, AMD FX8350, 32 gigs of RAM and a Radeon HD5670 GPU. Windows is on a Samsung SSD. Files and programs are on a FireCuda Hybrid drive. Work files are on an internal HDD storage drive. This is a digital music creation and AutoCAD workstation. I don't game. And until the Windows 10 update, this machine was blindingly fast and perfect. Now it's glitchy and I cannot paste images into MS Word or any MS Office application. I've been able to fix many of the bugs over time, but not all and it will never be the great user experience I had for years with Windows 7. My plan is a fresh Windows 10 install on a new SSD and then debloat it before installing my programs and files. But I've been reading about all the issues with Build 2004. As of June 28, 2020, is this build now ready for prime time? Should I use an older build? Or should I wait a month or two until Build 2004 is perfected? ABOUT ME: I'm a middle-aged Safety/Environmental Engineer with two years of university Computer Science from the 1980's. I've built approx.10 PC's and 2 local area networks over my lifetime, but I'm not trained in modern IT or Windows deployment.
