Windows 10 2004 Feature Update

Windows Update said 2004 was available for me, so I went ahead and clicked "Update". The update churns and churns like it's doing something, but then 10 minutes later "we're sorry, something happened so we can't complete the update at this time. But don't worry, we'll try again later". Of course, no indication of WHY it failed, just "something happened". Good grief, Microsoft...

Do the upgrade manually instead from Windows Update

Download the tool and choose upgrade. Good luck with an inplace upgrade though.
 
I've got Edge configured the way I like. Signed in to sync across devices and it worked flawlessly. I've always tried other browsers looking for anything to replace FF with, and always wind up going back to FF. This new Edge is going to see more than average use from me though. Fast and snappy as heck, has all the extensions I want and looks great.

My only question is why hide the option to show the home button like that? But if that's going to be my worst gripe, then it's a win. :up:

I tried Edge Chromium and overall I liked it, but there were a couple of sites that had issues showing streaming video controls like play/stop/etc. Regular Chrome and FF were no problem, so I figured Edge needed more time to "bake". This was a couple months ago. I've stuck with FF for years because it doesn't track you and send data home as often as Chrome and Edge do (though this is usually configurable). I'll probably try again once I install 2004.

That privacy was a big draw for me as well. I still need to dig more into Edge's settings on that, but I have to this is just pleasant as heck to use, so I won't dump like I used to, after a few days.
 
Edge began randomly logging me out of Rqge tonight. Also had multiple times where a page refresh resulted in not completely rendering the new page.

I'll clear the cache and try again tomorrow.

Privacy options can be set to strict with the usual warnings. Still liking it a lot and it seems to work pretty flawlessly ...
 
Finally backed everything up and then did a full wipe & reinstall using the May 2020 ISO. Zero issues. Everything loaded fine and I'm back in business.
 
I updated to version 2004 today and was praying it would fix this issue I've been having with laggy RemoteApp and Desktop Web Access I've been having, but nope. :cry:
 
On 2004 today, seemed to work fine. Took a lot longer to install than the usual updates.
 
I'm done with this POS version until they make me upgrade to it or past it, Ever since I went to this POS I have had off and on troubles with it, as of the last few days it was causing BSOD on boot up, I had an Image of 1909 I had made not long before I upgraded to 2004 and I am back to that, no more BSOD on boot up. No idea what updated recently which all of a sudden started causing this but done with it for now. 1909 was rock stable before I installed this POS version.

Edit: So far perfectly stable since going back to 1909.

I paid attention and was going to write it down until it changed every time it BSOD. Was getting some real odd behavior which I had never had before making me think it was a hardware problem. Different programs were crashing out as well. Maybe it had the herps. Since reloading my image of 1909 I haven't had any issues.
 
Went back to 2004 after the backup image and all is smooth again, no idea what the hell was jacking with it and causing the BSOD's all of a sudden. The whole system was acting up as far as different programs crashing and BSOD's on boot. Really seemed like a hardware problem but has been totally stable after going to the old image and then upgrading it to 2004 again.
 
At this point in time, why doesn't the BSOD actually tell you the problem and the causes when you restart the machine?
