Now it's time for people with Windows 10 to worry about update problems, or not. I got through unscathed, anyone had problems?

Why? What's special about this update that would cause problems?

I asked to see of anyone did have any problems with it.

Windows 10 October 2018 Update - The 7 best new features

Dark mode isn't a new feature to Windows 10 v1809. I've had it enabled for so long that I barely remember Windows 10 without it. It was added with the Windows 10 Anniversary Update two years ago.

But there are plenty of system apps that don't support it, such as Windows Explorer. So maybe the change is that now dark mode will be supported by all system apps (except Edge, I guess).

This was described by Windows as a feature update, but winver says it is a Spring Update. It restarted like a feature update and looked like a feature update while installing, but it only took a few minutes to install. Maybe it is a preparatory update before the October Update.

Microsoft pulls Windows 10 October 2018 Update after reports of documents being deleted

Another late Windows 10 Update? Would you want to work there?

Anybody else run into the after WU BSOD Stop Code: WDF Violation?

Apparently it's a - now known - issue with one of the drivers that come with the 10/18 cumulative update.

From command prompt rename [OS Drive Letter]:\Windows\System32\Drivers\HpqKbFiltr.sys to fix

I have not experienced it, and the reason why not seems to be that it is related to HP computers/keyboards:

Quote from: https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/microsoft/hp-pcs-getting-wdf-violation-bsod-after-installing-windows-10-updates/
This HpqKbFiltr.sys file is a keyboard driver and is part of the HP Quick Launch Buttons software that allows you to configure various buttons to launch programs in Windows.

When users attempt to install the KB4462919 update, the HP computer will crash and display an BSOD stating "Your PC ran into a problem and needs to restart " and a stop code of WDF_VIOLATION as shown below.

The latest update "Update to Windows 10, versions 1507, 1511, 1607, 1703, 1709, and 1803 for update reliability" seems to be an update manager. Microsoft must be having some severe update problems if they need something like this.

That yellow font colour should be illegal.

If it's illegal, people will want it. They want what they can't have. What color would you suggest? Not blue, it's not a link.

Windows 10 1809's new rollout - Mapped drives broken, AMD issues, Trend Micro clash

Microsoft is definitely having Update problems. The picture is not a video. It is used because there weren't any other pictures there to use. I don't post embedded videos, other than Youtubes. If you want to watch it, use the article link.
