AskWoody LoungerPer Microsoft, you need to login with you Microsoft account to wee or use it. I don not use my Microsoft account so I do not see Copilot.

AskWoody LoungerUpgraded to Win 11 22H2 end of January 2023. Appears to be Win 10 22H2 with a lot of cosmetic changes. No problems at all. All my programs work fine.

AskWoody LoungerVirus Total scan has 22 of 64 virus scanners flagging the ASR gui tool as bad. I alos got a message from MalwareBytes the it is a virus. Do not know why, but would rather edit registry than trust the ASR tool. Just my thoughts.

AskWoody LoungerYou should point to the MS documentation page that lists and explains all the rule for reference.

AskWoody LoungerEdge is not an issue for me. Is 20H2 stable enough is really the issue.

AskWoody LoungerJuly 28, 2017 at 4:46 pm in reply to: Microsoft says it’s time to install Win10 Creators Update #126947Hit me yesterday. Not seeing much difference, so blah.

AskWoody LoungerEveryone missed my point. Say I defer the Creators Update until 12/17. By that time Redstone 3 will be out via Windows update. Will Windows update attempt to install Redstone 3 and will jumping from 1607 directly to Redstone 3 cause problems. I suspect it will and that is a problem with the slow roll out of Creators Update.

AskWoody LoungerWhat will happen when Redstone 3 rolls out this fall and a PC is still on Windows 10 Version 1607 or worse yet Version 1511? I wonder if MS has considered this in the roll out plans for Creators update or Redstone 3. Things will get very confusing then. Someone needs to ask MS about this!!!
