I made it run through Sunday night when I wasn’t using the computer. I looked at the pagefile and everything looks okay where I left it. The only thing I’ve noticed is that every big update turns system restore back on, which isn’t what I want since those writes keep happening on my SSD.
The process ran without issues. No settings were reset, and it was my first time avoiding the usual troubles caused by Microsoft updates for Windows 10.
I restarted the project after adjusting settings (including changing the system name) and ended up without graphics drivers. It seems like everything is failing after a reboot, which isn’t making much sense. I’m probably in over my head right now.
Every time you install a new feature update, it feels like switching operating systems. If you wouldn’t save your files from Windows XP to Windows 7, you should be okay moving from version 15063 to 16299. The software won’t be available after March 2019, so you’ll need to upgrade to stay supported.
I usually handle these updates smoothly, except when the monitoring feature activates unexpectedly and needs adjustment.
Mine finished working smoothly at 1709, took roughly half an hour to complete its tasks without any adjustments. It returned with the latest updates but nothing else changed. However, my friend’s external drive wasn’t connected when he tried it back, and now there are significant problems with the files on that drive that he’s still working through.
It's wise to be cautious about automatic updates from Windows. If it installed without warning or warning you of changes, it could pose risks. For me, not attending school and working online meant losing important files if an update wiped them out. That would have been a big problem. It's definitely something to consider.
They stated they no longer allow downloads without permission for updates, meaning any new update will need an initial download followed by installation. Additionally, if you were a student, you should have kept backups on physical media such as USB drives or digital options like secondary drives, laptops, or cloud storage. Keeping just one copy would have been your responsibility for not backing it up properly.
Typically, users would, yet that's not the main concern. Updating your PC with a standard update can cause issues—even when you click check—without any alerts about missing files or lost programs. This suggests something is amiss, possibly due to corrupted backups.
