Happy Birthday Randy.

 

[Trouble]

Thanks, but please, let's not rush into anything.
I'm comfortably enjoying my last few hours of being 66 as it's only 4:37 P.M. October 16th here in the Central Time Zone of the U.S.
Tomorrow is plenty soon enough for me.

Happy Birthday Randy . Hope you're having a good one!

 

[Trouble]

Well, I guess it's official. 67 and no way to deny it.
Thanks for the well wishes.
It did start off with two excellent birthday presents.....
A good nights sleep
AND
Waking up from that.
Which..... for both.... I'm grateful.

Happy Birthday Trouble, and thanks for all the helpful posts.

 

[MrEd]

Oh no! How time flies.
The "old" fella is about to clock over another year.
Happy Birthday Randy (for tomorrow 17th).

 

[Norton]

Another year older, another year wiser.
Happy Birthday my friend.

 

[Trouble]

Thanks guys.
Time flies when you're ......
Trying to make this damn computer do what it's suppose to do.
We'll see if MIcrosoft comes through with my birthday present tomorrow.
Windows 10 Fall Creators Update
Which should keep me busy for another year (well 6 months anyway until Redstone 4)

 

[Ian]

Happy Birthday @Trouble

Enjoy unwrapping your present from MS .

 

[MrEd]

And another clicks by.
Happy Birthday Trouble from the land of Oz.

 

[Norton]

Trouble Happy Birthday my friend. Maybe you'll get 1810 for your birthday?

 

[Trouble]

Thanks you guys. Tomorrow I'll officially be 69 and HOLDING.
I didn't get 1810 which I think is suppose to be 1809 "Windows 10 October 2018 Update" but I guess you could call in 1810 if you want to since, who knows when we'll actually see it.
HOWEVER....
I did get

UPDATE 10/16: We have released the Windows 10 October 2018 Update Build 17763.104 (KB4464455) to Windows Insiders in the Slow and Release Preview rings. This Cumulative Update contains the following fixes:

• We have fixed the issue where the incorrect details were being shown in Task Manager under the “Processes” tab.
• We fixed an issue where in certain cases IME would not work in the first process of a Microsoft Edge user session.
• We fixed an issue where in some cases applications would become unresponsive after resuming from Connected Standby.
• We fixed several issues causing application compatibility problems with 3rd-party antivirus and virtualization products.
• We fixed several issues with driver compatibility.

ON my windows insider release preview ring machine and not on my main machine running 1809 / 17763.55. So they're still at it.

It may be cheaper for MS and more beneficial to users if MS aborted 1809 and start afresh from ground up using lessons learned from previous failed attempts and so called fixes.

 

[Trouble]

Now that would just be a birthday present TOO FAR.
Although I think they should maybe rethink this whole Windows 10 being the last version of Windows ever, and....
Maybe start tooling up for Windows 2020

 

[MrEd]

Well, when the old fella wakes up in the morning he’ll be (drum roll):
THREE SCORE AND TEN
Congratulations Randy and I’m sure many on this forum wish you the very best.

 

[Trouble]

Many thanks.
I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around the the whole 7 0 thing
