I mean, I haven't used my PC since I upgraded, all I know is that it did it while OSA, SysHardener & Avast & MBAM were active so hopefully they didn't ruin anything, but I haven't even been into my downloads or documents or anything to check so I probably should later on, silly me

If anyone use SUA, i want you to set a PIN in both accounts., put UAC at max settings and trigger a prompt from it.
You should normally see the "more choice" option in the prompt.
Do it several times successively, the bug is that the "more choice" sometimes does not show up. If you can replicate, post a screenshot here.

Thx for your cooperation.
I had the exact same problem, it was so annoying that I switched to admin account. I reported it on the feedback hub.

For those would successfully installed the update without issue AND need to limit the amount of data on the C drive, please note that this update saved the previous configuration(s) as Windows(old) which still may exist or have ballooned if an initial update failed.

Run Disk Cleanup (clean up System Files) to see if any residual crap exists. But obviously DON NOT do this if you want to revert!

Main problem I experienced is with third-party software, after some minutes I opted for a clean install.

Actually both Sandboxie and ERP requires to be updated, Sandboxie already offer a BETA working version on 1809.

For HitmanPro.Alert I found that upgrading from old stable to beta 761 from a PC running LTSB upgraded to LTSC caused the system not boot anymore.

Some problems with notifications, etc, but I kept for a little.

I don't see Windows Defender slowing me down for now, but there is still time to disable it, when a new working version of ERP on 1809 will be out.

Well found a bug, I turned off the windows firewall (Had WFC set to Med filtering) and I couldn't turn it back on using the default interface that Microsoft provided.

Click on "Turn on" and nothing happens.

Not an insider so it tells me i don't have access to that feedback. I assume it must be because 1809 was pulled so it's now an insider build.
probably because i was an insider before so my account is still considered as such...who knows...

That's funny.

For those who use English as a 2nd or 3rd.. language, the title sentence is written in a way that you would often talk about a plague, a rash, a disease...

Thanks for the chuckle Umbra.
