Yup. Also, if you really can't wait for joining in the insider ring (may take up to 24h), the ISO (Insider Preview) file is already out. But be aware that if you go in the Insider Preview, you'll need to clean install to get out.

 

ISO Insider Preview - Build 15063: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windowsinsiderpreviewadvanced?tduid=(b5dffe3a8c7f2c4aaf5d2bef8450ac4d)(259740)(2542549)(UUwpUdUnU47396)()

 

Cheers, will get it installed later.  

PC - NZXT H510 Elite, Ryzen 5600, 16GB DDR3200 2x8GB, EVGA 3070 FTW3 Ultra, Asus VG278HQ 165hz,

 

Mac - 1.4ghz i5, 4GB DDR3 1600mhz, Intel HD 5000.  x2

 

Endlessly wishing for a BBQ in space.

Under the Process tab, they are in the last group at the end. Details tab, nope. You can sort by name (default), and skip/ignore them yourself.

Chrome alone triggers me the F up. Like wtf is that, can you at least group them up lol

PS: I only have 13 tabs.

Oh they can regroup them. You do that by making threads instead of process. But now, if 1 thread crashes, the whole program crashes.

And the role of the Task Manager is to show you all processes running on your system at all levels. If you want some sort of expandable item where you have 1 process name, you expand it, and see all its processes, that would be the role of the Task manager to present the information differently. But then, it might be confusing... as it might suggest that these sub items of a process are threads, and not processes with the same name...

Great, need a clean install from USB, the faster the better.

This brings back memories of Windows Vista. To be honest, Windows 10 is slowly becoming like Vista, at least in my opinion.

Windows Vista was launched in 2006, Windows XP was launched in 2001. How come?

Except Vista was a questionably-stable ram hog.  If you threw 4+ gigs of ram at it Vista was perfectly usable, although it generally performed worse than XP, and didn't really have a lot to offer that XP didn't.  The problem was that most computers at the time were selling with only 1-2 gigs of ram, which was perfectly fine for running XP, but completely tragic on Vista.

 

In my experience, 10 has performed just as well as 7, if not better.

SFF-ish:  Ryzen 5 1600X, Asrock AB350M Pro4, 16GB Corsair LPX 3200, Sapphire R9 Fury Nitro -75mV, 512gb Plextor Nvme m.2, 512gb Sandisk SATA m.2, Cryorig H7, stuffed into an Inwin 301 with rgb front panel mod.  LG27UD58.

 

Aging Workhorse:  Phenom II X6 1090T Black (4GHz #Yolo), 16GB Corsair XMS 1333, RX 470 Red Devil 4gb (Sold for $330 to Cryptominers), HD6850 1gb, Hilariously overkill Asus Crosshair V, 240gb Sandisk SSD Plus, 4TB's worth of mechanical drives, and a bunch of water/glycol.  Coming soon:  Bykski CPU block, whatever cheap Polaris 10 GPU I can get once miners start unloading them.

 

MintyFreshMedia:  Thinkserver TS130 with i3-3220, 4gb ecc ram, 120GB Toshiba/OCZ SSD booting Linux Mint XFCE, 2TB Hitachi Ultrastar.  In Progress:  3D printed drive mounts, 4 2TB ultrastars in RAID 5.

In my experience, 8.1 is more stable and manages memory better than 10.

I only really used 8.1 on a couple of work computers, so I didn't really lean on it hard enough to weigh in there.

I believe the latest Windows 10 Media Creation Tool will now give you the Windows 10 Creators Update capability and ISO too.

 

Get it here https://goo.gl/hbcYQM

 

Version of that tool got updated from 14393 to 15063. So, it should give you the latest one.

Intel Core i3 2100 @ 3.10GHz - Intel Stock Cooler - Zotac Geforce GT 610 2GB Synergy Edition

Intel DH61WW - Corsair® Value Select 4GBx1 DDR3 1600 MHz - Antec BP-300P PSU

WD Green 1TB - Seagate 2.5" HDD 1TB - Seagate Barracuda 500GB - Antec X1 E.

@GoodBytes looks like the Snip tool got an update too unless I just didn't notice this before the update. You can now take window screenshots.

had to nuke the video drives and reinstall them - that also seems to have solved the issue with the start menu

how the fuck does the start menu ties with the video drives ..... dunno; but MS surely found a way

Anything that is made using UWP is GPU rendered. Every version of Windows, since Vista, Microsoft is switching more and more things from CPU rendered to GPU rendered.
