I did a clean install a few hours ago, and so far no issues (that I know about).
Does your task manager show these? Does Edge start by itself when Windows boot up?
How was your first experience with Windows 10 April Update?

So you don't have Edge browser auto start when Windows boot up?

I will be restoring my system tonight from a system image created before the upgrade. My screen resolution is all over the place and no way to set back to the default of 1366X768.
I have some suspended processes, but Edge did not run again, after the first boot.
The suspended processes I have are as follows:

Probably the easiest upgrade so far. The previous upgrades always brought big issues.

After two failed upgrade attempts, I asked for help and @Spawn gave me a couple of tips. Now W10 works smoothly.

why use Rufus when you can directly make a USB with MCT...

Well I give up on this version for the time being. Three times I installed and I cannot get away from a screen resolution of 1024X 768 instead of 166X768 everything looks squashed and I can't find a way around it. Not sure what to do next.

I am experiencing complete system freezes. Reading some other forums, the problem seems to be with hardware acceleration when using Chrome. I'll try siabling it to see if it solves the problem.
*Update*
Just received a notification from NVidia about a driver update.. maybe this will sove the problem.

I haven't updated my system yet, I didn't have the guts to bring myself to do it so quickly. The thought of being forced to revert back with a backup after waiting for the update download and installation just did not seem very appeasing to me at all... Since I knew there would probably be bugs waiting for me around the corner. As there was for many other people, practically 99.9% of the people I know.
I will update my system after Microsoft have addressed some of the bugs on the latest build, but in the mean-time I will update on the virtual environment which I use a majority of the time anyway. At-least then it doesn't matter if there's bugs and I won't have to waste more time reverting back only to re-update later on in a few days/a weeks time.
TIP: It is probably not a very good idea to try and upgrade to a brand new build of Windows which has underwent so many changes with your primary real-time security solution installed unless you've checked with the vendor that compatibility is fine - not just enabled, but literally installed - and using no security post-update is neither a good idea since it leaves you vulnerable, therefore in such a scenario I'd wait until your vendor confirms compatibility or switch to another vendor who are compatible temporarily at-least. I know many people did this and were fine but with a sensitive product from a vendor like Kaspersky or COMODO (who have rather intriguing technology for features like virtualization), I wouldn't recommend it unless you're asking to be set-back by update failure or post-update problems.
Be careful of driver compatibility as well... The new build of Windows has had changes for the actual Windows Kernel, this can affect device drivers you're using non-security package related which were originally compatible with your system. What happens then? More problems.
Make sure you at-least have a backup before updating... Standard stuff.

Just an update. After the NVidia update I experienced no more freezes... My HP printers also complained about Windows changing HP drivers for generic Microsoft drivers. Reintalling the printer software solved the problem.
I hope I it's over.
