Windows 10 May 2019 Update starts rolling out today

[Gandalf_The_Grey]

I unlinked my OneDrive account, but the update still failed. Must be something else.

Can you find the Compatibility Log?
According to a post in a Dutch forum must be somewhere in C:\$Windows.~BT\Sources\panther\ and could help to pinpoint the issue.

There was a known bug while installing through USB drives.

Okay, I got a bug where the start menu would not open with the windows key or clicking it with the mouse. Has anyone seen that behavior? Right click and restart fixed it...strange.

I'm really surprised how many are jumping at 1903.

I try to delay implementation... by at least weeks, or maybe months..

Succesfully installed new image, love a fresh installed computer.

Curiosity gets the better of me. With a system image in my back pocket, I figure I don't have much to lose.

Yes, I just got this sudden surge of love for MS and impulsively decided to upgrade.

@blackice - restarts often work magic - if not the first, then the second or third.

That's a good idea.

I have the same, needed to reinstall the pc anyway so why not with the brand new release !
So far it runs buttersmooth

That's a professional attitude.

 

[blackice]

That's a professional attitude.

But not an enthusiast one. I would bet that @Burrito has the best stability and uptime out of us all. But, where the fun in that?

Anyone experiencing crash of Night Light when exiting out of games that use your gpu? I guess this is part of the "known issues" list. and was already present when I tried 1903 via Insiders, worse even as the NVIDIA driver would flat-out crash. I switch it off and on but it's irritating. Didn't care for f.lux b/c it's a little much.

Also getting a bunch of ESENT 455 errors in Event Viewer/Applications but everything seems to run OK. Noticed sfc /scannow runs a bit faster in 1903 but I'd rather Microsoft focuses on the known issues that should have been resolved before this mass release. Edit: is this update paused again?

No crash but Night light still doesn't work. F.lux for now.
Same error in Event viewer too. Nothing in "Reliability History".

Ha! Good point.

This didn't work out as I hoped...
a. Nearly all Win10 apps crashed on launch. DISM and SFC checked out fine.
b. Microsoft Office Home and Student 2013 programs crashed on launch (full online repair seemed to have fixed this).
c. No mouse icon on boot screens (screen to choose Win 10/Macrium Reflect/...).
d. Duplicate user folders (Downloads, Documents, Pictures, etc., etc.)... a known issue
e. Edge welcome screen showing 3 "Try it" features... only 1 of the 3 opened the Settings window.

I rolled back (thank you Macrium).

That why i did a fresh install.

Considering I waited to this past January to upgrade (in place) from 8.1 to 10... it seems I need to be patient once again

Same issue here for some reason the start menu is broken

No, but not everyone will get it right away. I had to manually upgrade from a 1903 ISO.

@shmu26
I was plagued by drive related errors when upgrading from 7 to 10. The problem was solved by disconnecting all ATA connections including the optical drive and leaving only the c drive connected.
