I suppose I should be glad that MS didn't decide they wanted to delete of my files. Still, things could have been worse:
Windows 10 KB4556799 update is causing audio issues and data loss for some users - MSPoweruser
Windows 10
- Thread starter Glaucus
- Start date

Thankfully, no issues here (he says yet 
)

I got this too and I'm on AMD. Very strange.

Was going to uninstall, but it would just come back through wouldn't it ?
Looks like its from around February too.
Strange indeed.

Only place I can see is Microsoft site telling me about the update.
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4497165/kb4497165-intel-microcode-updates
Can't find any more information what so ever. My system updated and installed fine but not sure what it's done.

Nah if anything it just won't apply. Microsoft has probably pushed it out to everything and forgetting to put it into the Intel group or something.

Not sure I can make myself understood here 
Is there any way to increase the size of the 'grab handle' in window corners - the position the mouse cursor needs to be to get hold of it to drag when re-sizing? Currently seems to be about 1 pixel in size and an utter pain getting it in just the right position...

Yeah it didn't seem too, as the configuring just flashed on and off.

Does anyone actually use the MS store ?
Ive not been in it once, just no interest at all in the bloody thing
EDIT:
Actually, my Nvidia drivers CP comes through it

I don't. There is nothing in it that appeases me that I can't get on the phone or tablet.
thats only if you install the DCH version of the drivers.Does anyone actually use the MS store ?

Install the standard version and you dont need the CP from the store as its included in the drivers
I remove the store and apps from my install images as, like yourself, I have no use for the store or apps. I just wish Microsoft would try to force the store upon us, such the Nvidia drivers.Does anyone actually use the MS store ?

The Nvidia drivers might be the one thing that makes me leave the store in my future images of Windows 10 installations. I worry that one day they remove the standard drivers for good leaving only the DCH drivers and that I need the store installed to install the Nvidia drivers.
Although I still have no intentions of creating a Microsoft account to either use the store or log in to Windows.

It's only there so Microsoft can say "look how many people use our store!" simply on the basis that it comes bundled with Windows 10. I'm not quite sure how they got skewered for doing the same thing with IE years ago, yet this time it's all fine.
I also remove the app store from my W10.I remove the store and apps from my install images as, like yourself, I have no use for the store or apps. I just wish Microsoft would try to force the store upon us, such the Nvidia drivers.

I have only just moved over to Nvidia for a GPU (AMD 390 8GB to a 2070S) and see nothing has changed with the CP. without this you cannot access any settings so I hope they dont remove it from drivers.
I had no joy trying to find the setup files for the CP either which im surprised about as you can normally find most things online
I check for normal drivers on this page, which is practically impossible to find unless you have it bookmarked.
As an example, here are links to the current stable standard and DCH drivers.

Ahh well, if you need an MS account to use the store, then i can't use it anyway, as ive not got one either
