Every day, we get people whose systems are sufficiently changed by #Windows updates and the agency's constant configuration change pushes that #Bitlocker decides to deny access to the drive. It doesn't make me confident in the stability of #Win10 or the safety of BL. -

@musicman True, but the overwhelming majority of #Win10 users don't even know that's available, so it basically doesn't exist. -

@musicman The #Win10 desktop is slightly better than the #Win8 / #Win8.1 version, but on a tablet, it is worse. 8/8.1/10 is still worse than #Win7. -

The #Win10 ideabook went unresponsive before I left on my walk. When I returned, I opened the task manager and *surprise!* Windows Update is using 100% of CPU and Disk I/O. -

#Win10 updates in the middle of my final project. Now I'm trying to catch up and take my normal position at the top. After the disrespect they gave me the other day, I've got something to prove. -

@lunduke Don't tell me you're going to sneak into the other side of the tracks and log into a #Win10 machine. -

Dear #LazyWeb:
I need to find a zero-price program for #Win10 that can act as a little "public address" system. Basically, they've got a room, a cheap computer, a microphone, and speakers; they have no budget (nor do I), and they expect me to do some magic.
Further: I won't be on-site when they do this, so I have to show a non-techie how to use it. -

The #Win10 tablet is going through the "Reset" process now. When I ship it to #sonTwo in #FL next week, he'll pass it along to a friend. -

#sonTwo thinks he's found someone who can use my cheap "nextbook" #Win10 tablet with attachable keyboard. I think I'll be shipping it next week. -

Windows 10 Fall Creators Update (1709) is incompatible with VeraCrypt.
Of course it is. Fsckers.
testing out this script, let's see if it works:

@mike I think that may be the reason that some government agencies are starting to roll out #Win10. I know a lot of them were planning to hold onto #Win7 until the last possible second. -

I think I'm going to reset the #Win10 tablet and give it away. -

@mike #Win10? We've had lots of driver issues there. (Beyond the #Win8 / #Win8.1 signed drivers requirement, which was a pain in itself for our older equipment.) -

@moonman I hope that's just for home-use versions. It would really stink to have the update break $EMPLOYER's #Win10 configuration. -

@delores From what I've seen, triple monitors is very flaky in #Win7 once someone gets it to work. Settings did not survive a reboot. I have not had to try to get it working in #Win10 yet. -

@veer66 US Acer Swift 1 models are in the $329-$400 range, but they come with #Win10 https://is.gd/5o4vOw -

@mike Open Windows Update and grab DirectX or whatever they call it now. Are you on #Win8 / #Win8.1 or #Win10? -

@bob @mike AFAIK, #MSFT rolled most #WinMobile features into #Win8 / #Win8.1 / #Win10. #WinCE was underlying software of a GPS/SatNav unit I owned a few years back. (Current device's splash screen does not reveal the OS underneath.) -

@lnxw48a1 If/When our $EMPLOYER makes a broader deployment of #Win10 we'll see the "Windows For Warships" kind. Telemetry will be disabled. -

@veg05 I am aware of the spying. The #Win10 tablet is almost always turned off; not used for anything personally identifiable. However, $EMPLOYER has committed to Windows, so it will come eventually, and I will need to be familiar with it.
The worst thing is all the citizen / taxpayer data that agencies collect which may be slurped into Redmond's data-mining operation.
