Posted October 16, 2017 Going back will keep the malware, as it comes from there. I would just clean install to be honest.

Posted October 16, 2017 Come to think about it, a similar sounds is a notification from a Samsung phone. Do you have PushBullet or a Samsung phone specific software? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted October 16, 2017 quick question, is it a good idea to use the insider builds on my daily machine? i really want to try new stuff, but i want it to be stable as well. She/Her Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have to ask, the answer is no. A lot of people I'm sure will jump in saying "I've been using it for X months/years and it's been pretty stable" but you shouldn't let anecdotes like that lull you into a false sense of security. The insider builds (both fast and slow) are pre-release software. If you need stability, stick with the release channel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you need stability, stick with the release channel. i don't need absolute stability, just enough so that i can turn my pc on and be confident that it will boot. the odd crash here and there is fine. i always use developer versions of web browsers and stuff, so i'm used to that. so will insider be stable enough for that?

If you're willing to tolerate some instability then the slow channel is a relatively safe bet. Again, you should just be mindful that it's pre-release software that is being frequently updated. Really, you should be keeping backups of your important data no matter what OS you're using so as long as you're taking precautions and are ok with possibly being inconvenienced every now and again, I say go for it. However if you really just want to try out some of the new features, I would just drop it on another machine if you have one or even in a VM. It's also worth nothing that the Fall Creators Update is just around the corner anyway so you'll be seeing new features on the retail channel very soon.

After that the insider menu should show a button to stop receiving builds, a selector for which branch and another for which pace you would like to receive insider builds. nevermind, it's working now.

On average: Fast Ring: new build each week Slow Ring: new build once a month Currently, Slow Ring is on the official release of Fall Creator update coming tomorrow (if no last minute delays) And Fast Ring are on Redstone 4 (update code name) development.

I just hope tomorrows release wave doesn't leave some major bugs this time around, pretty excited to have it after reading your summarization post. Gotta say the GPU usage is far more detailed than I was expecting them to implement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta say the GPU usage is far more detailed than I was expecting them to implement. Many people will have issues on the forum... but it is the same drill at every release of Service Packs and new versions of windows that people decide to upgrade. Most times it comes down to: Forced update and not wait for their waves, so fall into driver or detected bug that MS usually fix via update. A/V acts up. Registry cleaner was used on system. Had a virus or malware at some point. People forget that an A/V is all about prevention. So once the virus or malware is deployed, it only removes it, it doesn't fix registry changes and modified system files. Drivers were not updated before upgrading Crappy system tweak tool used.

The only A/V I use is Windows Defender and I don't use reg cleaners so there should be no problem there, I also like to think that I have decent enough browsing habits so less risk of some malware/virus (not much I can do to stop the NSA inserting their worms...). Just need to check drivers again and play the waiting game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
