How about using CCleaners older versions before it got all commercial on us???i.e. the earlier versions have very limited extras onboard…just a thought…(he says whilst using version: 2.33.1184) but I mean earlier even…they used to have all their versions available online for download anytime years ago….cheers.

Kinda like getting knocked out but not knowing it until later! i.e. Memory loss, Concussion, leaks, and similar issues can occur next time you reboot perhaps ; >)

I’m not sure if I missed it but are you using Windows apps to do this work or do you use the software that comes with the SSD? I never trust Windows for any maintenance but I do use the app for my SSD (Storage Executive: Crucial) and stay with their recommends. I’ve also learnt to keep the SSD loaded only with files needed and my external drives hold all the heavier files because SSD’s do slow down on performance when they start getting loaded to max levels f.y.i, cheers all ; >)

All the way from little New Zealand with the greatest respect and appreciation to you good sir! Thank you very much for your help and support to my family and I over the years Woody, so many tasks I would never have considered if not for your excellent tutorials, guides, and team work, shucks I even feel a teeny bit wiser and confident to try anything suggested on this excellent website to regain momentum on our computers every time Microsoft enter our systems like gangsters to create mayhem!

Microsoft should be ever so grateful for your input and shout you a treat of your choice for all your input Woody.

Best wishes and good health in your retirement. I’ve only just made my pc image after all these years in prep for the inevitable change over to w10 (!)

You are a legend to say the least Woody, you’ve been the shining light in the darkest of tunnels keeping this household on track with our computing, and I am now confident I can keep up with ms platforms now that you’ve taught me enough to carry on. DEFCON forever and ever-absolutely well done Woody,  Cheers from NZ ; > )

V1909_W10_x64 Bit Still Possible?

I too have the V1909_W10 file but am I right in reading a user was forced to update to V2004 or similar? I downloaded 1909 after many users liked the stability of the platform; is this still correct team or have I been on the road too long driving tankers (!) Cheers All ; >)

or maybe it is a two-fold update, 1. an update required & 2. another spanner ithrown into w8.1 like they did with w7  to frustrate users to w10 again …imo

Hi Team ; >) if my HD was bad i would just save the data I need and also save that new HD to put a brand new OS onto it instead of a faulty HD OS if I’m reading right here. Why clone a faulty HD onto a new one is my FAQ here. once you have installed new OS remember to make an image of the OS while it is in tip top new condition for a rainy day, cheers team.

Every time my hi spec laptops got to this point in time I would get ready to do a format and clean install m8 … something has gone awry in the system and sounds like you can’t nail it to the wall. This is when I start saving alllll my treasure troves onto 128GB usb sticks per topic etc and you’ll be right back to what I call: “Click-Bang” land once again, enjoying the specs you paid for years ago – hope this helps ; >)

Can you go to a pals place in the city or as a bare minimum…somewhere on broadband unlimited? I used to do this when I was on dial-up modems (!) Shoot into town download all my apps & stuff then head home with the hard copies ready to rock on all my laptops – I reckon it’s your inet connection more than anything else. On dialup, 56k was impossible if it rained hard in the area and the ground got soaked, weather & ping were always our issues, cheers ; >)

Winaero Tweaker has a setting that disables UAC mode …quite a handy dandy tool for disabling many W10 settings in fact team …

Sometimes this “Windows Teredo Tunneling Adapter” prompt can appear out of the blue when a new app has been installed? My prompt came after installing a SONY Camera, and it was in the settings that I had to disable the “Network” configs somewhere, But if you know what your prompt is there for, maybe the uninstall\reboot can do the trick; cheers.

Two laptops with W10 Pro x64 bit have yesterday installed latest Feature\ Updates with no issues at all (kb5459951 & kb4551762) OS Build is: 18363.778. Hope this helps, cheers for fantastic team work as usual all ; >)

Now you have had a cleanup; if the whirring noise returns early then it will more than likely be your Hard Drive telling you to backup your data and replace asap ( one of my laptops has just undergone surgery in this dept after lots of whirring audio this week). A usb airline is a handy dandy tool to keep around for regular blow outs around the venting areas in future team – amazing how fast dust gathers ; >)

I think I have found my platform when my W7 Ultimate 64bit EOL arrives … LINUX MINT is a pretty d*** cool looking platform that could help me “move into the Linux world” a d*** sight easier than I initially thought. What an absolute gem of a platform for any newbie to get started on, with tonnes of support, forums, tutorials – and it is all free too\open source. That’s my 10 cents toward what to do when W7 eols, cheers team ; >)

I have an old HP Laptop Compaq Presario CQ61. I put SSD drive in before W7 Ultmate 64bit upgrade to 1903. If anything, I am absolutely amazed that the speed has definitely increased cpu speed and processing power for me. I just have not been able to update any further since I upgraded to W10 Pro 64bit. Everytime I go to updates there is a blank page with just dots scrolling across the top of page??? everything is enabled but I just cannot update AT ALL? Yet; everything functions fantastically on & offline for me? So my version that does not update? 1903_18362.295 W10 Pro. I hope someone can tell me I’m not alone & the next update should be seamless integration …(yeah Right; >) Cheers team.
