Some fixes are just too small to ever be mentioned:
- "We polished the Wi-Fi flyout UI and fixed an issue where text entry into a Wi-Fi password field was noticeably top-aligned rather than centered."
- rocky1138 10y agoI love reading stuff like this. I disagree!
- newjersey 10y agoIs this implemented in xaml? Oh how I wish more of Windows was free and open source.
- Aleman360 10y agoA lot of the Windows 10 UI is built with UWP XAML. Source: I work on it.
- algorithmsRcool 10y agoYou may not be able to answer this, but has memory usage ballooned after replacing the traditional dialogs with xaml ones?
- mistermann 10y agoAh good so I can ask a question: is there a way to turn off forced updates and reboots (reverting back to how it used to be when it would just nag you but never actually invoke the update automatically)?
- newjersey 10y agoJust curious: why do you want that? What is the use case for you?
- 1and2equals0 10y agoI have a computer with hardware that is a couple of years old. The new and improved drivers for Windows 10, which should be compatible with my hardware, work horribly, so I manually installed some older drivers, which work perfectly. However, every once in a while, Windows 10 decides to update my drivers to the new crap drivers, so I have to waste my precious time uninstalling new crap drivers and manually reinstalling good old drivers. As of yet, I have found no good solution to this problem, if I still want to be able to receive updates for other drivers.
- mistermann 10y agoI always have a billion things open and it absolutely infuriates me when I come back to my laptop after a few days of non-use and it has rebooted, losing browser tabs, unsaved changes, etc.
- chadzawistowski 10y agoHere's how the release cadence works: First, you can opt into the bleeding-edge update stream http://i.imgur.com/7gWXLd3.png http://i.imgur.com/7gWXLd3.png Next is "current branch" for normal consumers, who are forcibly kept up to date (arguably a good thing, since they don't have an IT department to update their computers for them) http://i.imgur.com/kYkvffQ.png http://i.imgur.com/kYkvffQ.png Third is "current branch for business". Businesses are still required to upgrade, but they get a bit more time to ensure rollouts go smoothly. CBB can delay updates but not indefinitely. http://i.imgur.com/vsejEFC.png http://i.imgur.com/vsejEFC.png Lastly, Enterprise and Education SKUs have access to the "long term servicing branch" where you can indefinitely delay updates, and/or run your own WSUS update servers. http://i.imgur.com/2JsFq1Y.png http://i.imgur.com/2JsFq1Y.png tl;dr yes, but you need to pay for the Enterprise SKU for that privilege.
- mistermann 10y ago> but you need to pay for the Enterprise SKU for that privilege This reminds me very much of the old, arrogant MS. I fully appreciate "forcibly kept up to date (arguably a good thing, since they don't have an IT department to update their computers for them)" but imo to earn the good citizen award, MS should support a registry edit to give sophisticated users at least a few weeks of a nag screen before a forced update.

- 1and2equals0 10y agoI stand corrected - apparently, no fix is too small to be mentioned ;-)
