5 machines here. All working perfectly after update! What we have here seems to be a PEBKAC.

Best feature was their decision to return the details pane to the bottom of the screen instead on the right side so now we can have both preview and details at the same time
 
Two machines here, 100% perfect. With the new update, I'm getting faster boot times and tad higher average frame rates.

Also, for all Ryzen users, you can ditch the Ryzen balanced plan. Microsoft has finally optimized the regular balanced plan for Ryzen (at least it seems like that to me).

I benchmarked both ryzen balanced and the regular balanced plan in the new creators update, and i get higher scores with the regular balanced plan. Also, there is no more CPU parking on the regular balanced plan like before.

I don't run garbage Surface but Nvidia 1080 ti SLI setup with 8/16 6900K setup. Entire UI is just f. buggy. Played Rise of Tomb Rider and after you quit Start Menu rendering is just broken and only way to fix it is to log off and login again. Should i mention Shell Experience crashing and others <mod edit> like that. No greater joke than some MS. fan coming and saying that Win 10 works great on his Surface...sorry but your surface is no f. indication for anything.

So did you come from windows 7?? Did you do a clean installation?

When upgrading from windows 10 to windows 10, I've noticed it's really smooth. But in the past, I've tried upgrading from windows 7 and windows 8 to windows 10, and it was buggy. However a complete installation should fix everything.

No clean install. OS is just buggy as hell. Windows Insider program is joke where people test Win10 with virtual machines or joke hardware such as Surface. No real hardware test against Windows 10 was ever performed with enough number of testers. One of the solutions is to completely replace Win 10 UI with 3rd party to avoid UWP <mod edit>

But instead of doing that i will just install Windows 7 again.

Yes, I do. I cannot upload screenshots now because i am at work...can do tonight. I am not saying that it will happen for every hardware configuration but it does affect mine. The weirdest thing is shell experience crash where start menu does not invoke. The only way is to reboot machine.

Microsoft QA simply does not exist and Windows Insider program is waste of time.

I wanted to give a chance to Windows 10 but MS is simply not delivering for me at least.

Btw speaking of Edge, that <mod edit> crashes like there is no tomorrow, randomly on random site. Completely unusable...seriously MS?
 


I wonder if that'll change idle CPU clock speeds. Been hearing about clocks not throttling back at idle.

After more than 20 installation failures and over 100 hours of these failed install attempts plus all the searching and attempting fixes, I'm wondering WHY it keeps failing, seeing as the error message is of no help whatsoever. May have to go Linux after all . . .
 


Been there, called M$. They fudge my PC and it's on them to fix. Too bad they have levels of tech support. The first couple of levels are utterly useless except for the most basic of users. Still, they do have a billion(more or less) devices to update. There will be individual problems. Work through it and learn or ditch.

Windows 10 has more aggressive power management i cannot override, compared to Windows 7 in other words sucks in my book causing lower performance with CPU across the board.

I am going to upload screenshots here as a proof and to Microsoft Feedback just so they have, but i don't think they will do anything about it...most likely blame someone else. After that f. Win 10, going back to Win 7 which does everything better.
 


That's another plus, the clock speeds do throttle back like they should. And you don't get a performance penalty for having your CPU underclock.

It does in my case with Intel 6900K 8/16. 3DMark really shows that where score under Windows 10 is for 1000 points < than on Windows 7. The reviewers will never tell you about that because for some reason they never include Windows 7 SP1 as a reference point against Windows 10 just so people know.

Running flawless here on 2 systems. Really enjoying the changes as well. Pretty happy right now with Win 10. Kudos to msft for once.
 
Only hiccup i've had with the fall creator update is some weird compatibility issue between a samsung tv i have hooked up (secondary display) and the nvidia driver that wasn't present with the original creator update.

For some reason the driver or the update thinks the tv is a 12bit color depth display when it only able to support 8bit (or at least that is what setting in nvidia control panel that fixed my problem) and it not system specific as it happen on both my main system 980ti and my htpc (GT 710).

But it was a simple fix and haven't had any issue beyond that.

Here what it looked like with default display settings (before being fixed).... Watch out though.... you might go on some weird trip...
