Hey Y’all,

I just updated my test rig to 22H2 and here’s what I found:

1. Upgrade blew away my desktop background picture.
2. Blew away 10 setting changes like items on the shortcut menu, Move to Folder and Copy to Folder. Luckily, I have a program that maintains a list of the changes and reapplies them, easy peasy!

So here’s what my WinVer PS1 program reports:



I’ll report any other anomalies as they turn up.

Otherwise, it was a smooth in place upgrade.

May the Forces of good computing be with you!

Was is the program you use for tracking and reapplying changes?  It sounds useful.

T.T.,

You can find it on my OneDrive shared folder here.

Note: The program only tracks settings that I have included in the program NOT all setting changes. The ones the program tracks are the ones that I find are necessary for me to effectively use windows…YMMV! Of course since it’s a PowerShell program you can modify it to your needs as you see fit.

I installed it on my work laptop (I know, I know!) but all fine, no hiccups.

I didn’t see the effect, though I have in the past. It’s worth localising a source wallpaper and browsing for it – when it went awry for me (way back, 2019) the wallpaper set was with an image where I had used the “right click and set as wallpaper” option from an “Internet” location – so it could have been to do with the recent fiddling with the “mark of the web” around zip files with recent builds.. which would mean you use opatch?

Just a thought..

O.G.,

Nope not an internet pic. I use pictures I’ve takes from the local drive in a folder G:\BEKDocs\Customizations.
