Depends how far the TV is from the PC, you could simply run an HDMI cable from the PC to it and set it as duplicate display.

Sorry if this was covered in the previous 300+ pages.

Which is the best privacy tool to use with Win10?
Something like "O&O Shutup10"?

Thanks

Just noticed with 1511 that "update and shutdown" has returned. Finally!

For Win10 best use Resource monitor and watch the memory especially any increases in Commit

Nothing looks to high, or out of the ordinary

Guys,

Just a quick question, i have noticed after this update that i have a new folder called "Default.migrated" in the the C: Users folder.
Can i delete this file as i have done with Window.old and Windows BT folders?

Thanks

I have deleted this folder a few times when upgrading without issues, so you should be fine if you delete it.

Yeah you can indeed.

I had around 20gb of backed up windows file from the update - they show up via disk cleanup anyway

Native email app is even more broken since the update which is a pity! Mine says last synced 3 days ago - wont autosync.

Bluetooth is a nightmare! I removed all drivers for it, deleted everything as System but it still comes back.

The only reason it annoys me is because it shows my network icon as disconnected permanently.

Minor glitch which I can deal with.

Audio - everytime I have fresh installed windows 10 I have no audio either, have to download and install myself and then configure. Takes 5 minutes but still, I have never had to think about audio drivers in the past.

bigjonnyauk · 22 Nov 2015 at 20:05

I have a HP split using IDT drivers branded as "Beats audio" and have given me no end of problems....

I wondered if Dell had done the same thing and used IDT audio drivers branded as dell maxsense.. Presuming this is onboard audio...

These are a pain. We always have to reinstall them at work, they never seem to work properly with the system image, unlike almost every other piece of hardware or software.

Well that's an annoying bug, watching a video got tiered shut the laptop, went to bed and at 3:30am on the dot, video started playing even when laptop closed. Assume it woke up to check for update or something. Confused the hell out if me for a minute.

Downloads for Windows 10 November big-bang build axed by Microsoft

A funny thing happened over the weekend: Microsoft made its latest Windows 10 download – billed as its first major update – disappear. And it hasn't come back.

Sure, you'll eventually be able to get the build, version 1511, via Windows Update, so no one's losing out.

But if you were hoping to use Microsoft's media creation tool (MCT) to download the whole operating system as one self-contained package, and create an .ISO image to install from, you're out of luck. The download for build 1511 is gone.

If you've got a PC running Windows 10 already, none of this really affects you.

If you're starting a Windows 10 install from scratch, and want to use the MCT, you'll have to start with an .ISO of an earlier version – the big July launch release – and then download all the latest stuff via Windows Update like everyone else.

Whoa, big deal, huh? Well, MCT is aimed at professionals and enthusiasts with many PCs under their wing: rather than have each computer upgrade to the latest build of Windows 10 via gigabytes and gigabytes of Windows Update downloads, you can instead download and create a single .ISO image of the operating system you want, burn it to DVD or a USB stick, and install the software the (slightly) old-fashioned way on as many machines as you're licensed to from that media.

So if you wanted to bring a bunch of Windows 7 machines up to the latest Windows 10, you'd just pop into each of them a DVD or USB stick built from the latest MCT download, and save yourself a lot of time and bandwidth.

It seems, though, Microsoft is bored with that plan, doesn't like testing or rolling out fat upgrades any more, or the wheels have fallen off it in some other way: the version 1511 download, which went live just over a week ago, isn't there any more, so you'll have to start from the July build and apply a shedload of updates.

We asked Redmond for an explanation, but got this instead from a spokeswoman:

The MCT download cannot be used to update Windows 10 PCs to the November update. The November update will be available via Windows Update. If you don’t see the November update yet, you will see it soon as it is rolling out in a phased approach.

We thought the plan for Windows 10 was monthly enhancements via Windows Update, and then big-bang updates every six months or so – the November 2015 update being the first of those. What with its secretive updates policy, why does any of this surprise us? ®

Seems like a backward move to me. :confused:
