I feel a little bad that when I saw patch Tuesday in the headline, my first thought was Blizzard's update schedule for World of Warcraft (every Tuesday).

Build 101062 is completely borked on my test laptop. I'm going to have to roll back a build to even do a Windows update to get the new build. I have just been doing updates on top of updates since about the second public release though. I imagine a clean install would have avoided most of my issues.

Me too. Regular desktop, seems to be stuck on 10162. I'm getting a few bugs here and there, corrupt partition when removing (even safely) a usb3 external hard-drive, some memory error when rebooting (before reboot), but otherwise very excited about Windows 10. Very usable workflow, nothing like the disaster that was Windows 8/8.1.

I don't like that you need some type of email account, and forget the recommended settings, you need to go to "advanced", every default choice is against your security/privacy. And very sneakily one of those you have to scroll down to see, and there is no scroll down bar. You basically can't see it except if accidentally scroll down or use the tab key to select the options (which is how I found it).

I cant get DCS World to play, as my OS crashes. I have newest nvidia drivers
and my BSOD gave a message that " Page Fault in Non Paged Area".

"The primary feature of this update is the ability to purchase paid Wi-Fi through the Windows Store using the Microsoft Wi-Fi app."

So you need an OS update to update an app?
What is this? apple?

But you need how can you purchase from the store unless you have Wi-Fi to purchase the Wi-Fi so you can use the Wi-Fi?

Drat, is there no edit button here? lol

Presumably, you will be able to connect to it as a guest with limited access. Here in the North East, the dominant ISP is Optimum, and they have wi-fi hotspots covering most of the state that I'm in. Whenever I connect to their network, it allows me to access their website where I can either login if I'm a subscriber (which I am), or pay $5 to use it for a day. No other sites can be visited until one of those two conditions have been met. Although to be honest with you, Gmail sometimes manages to sneak an e-mail through prior to my signing in, so I assume there's a small gap before the filter hits.
