This happened to my girlfriend's laptop that she uses for school. By the time they released this fix I had already backed up what she needed, wiped the SSD, and installed a clean version of windows 10. After that, we'll both be on windows 10 as long as possible.
- MBCook 5y agoShe was running a pre-release OS?
- bitwize 5y agoWell, she is dating a Hackernews.

- post-it 5y agoBest not to use a beta OS on your main workstation anyway.
- syncbehind 5y agoWhy would you ever run a beta/ pre-release on your main machine? That seems like asking for trouble.
- adamdusty 5y agoShe can do whatever she wants with her stuff. I told her I could run it back for her if she wanted when I saw she was on 11 but she said she liked it.
- selfhoster11 5y agoWhy not? It's beta, not alpha. Things may bug out, but that's about it I would expect.
