Wrong I'm afraid. Google is owned by Alphabet, which was what Google was called but their changed their name a few months ago, and what is now called Google is a subsidiary, along with Youtube etc.

Got Cinema 4D working on 10 now, managed to go through a whole render last night of 10,000 pngs and it did not not crash.
Uninstalled video drivers, got a fresh batch from AMD and reinstalled, so that is working now. Either the original download had a problem or the installation did. |

Some interesting and useful changes in the latest insider preview build.
Been playing with it this morning, roll on redstone 2. The 18 hour update change is a sensible one for pro users and from the feedback if you follow it within insider is the right option. Hide app list or tiles from start menu will be an interesting one for the gutter press to play on. Well yes I'm sure many users will be happy too ![]() Some power user options for regedit are a plus for me, I'm not sure about the service host changes being so up front, but its welcome for the more technical of us. I quite enjoy the laid back way this guy runs through hands on for these preview build changes. Not the most technical, but a good overview; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_i_eSeK8ejo |

Actually I think the hide apps list is pretty poor, as it not only hides apps list, it ALSO hides recently added and most used lists DESPITE option set to display them.

If someone doesn't like Windows 10 because they think it's spying on them and forces updates then a Chromebook is a bizarre alternative. Google's entire business is built on monitoring you and the Chromebook is hugely dependent on storing your stuff on Google's servers, plus updates are automatic and mandatory.
Furthermore, it is possible to adjust privacy settings on a Chromebook: http://www.pcworld.com/article/31071...indows-10.html |

wifi
Has anyone had issues regarding wifi?
My PC and tablet is picking up BTWIFI, as far as I know there is no one in area has it - the problem is this is causing issues with connecting to home router, I have tried forgetting network but at times its picking it up again I don't know if this has something to do with any updates recently but its just strange - also if your using any other devices synced can this cause issues? |

It doesn't matter if it's picking it up really, mine picks up about 5 others. As long as you don't connect to it, it shouldn't do anything.
How is it stopping you logging on to your home network exactly. |

Since when did W10 decide it would download updates and reboot your machine all by itself?

Also whenever I am away from laptop/PC for a few days - I have my tablet and phone on me, yet its these devices I would say should be picking up the wireless from BTWIFI but again even when I am "home" it still displays these connections??

OK, if you say so. But this is the first time it has done it for me and I've have been running an Insider Review copy since before the official release.

It's been updating and resetting on its own for me since the first update was available. It normally only resets when I've left it over night and nothing is running. |

That maybe a good thing
![]() I've lost Bluetooth, I have an unrecognised USB device, it's decided I need a touchpad driver update, StartIsBack is broken (1.3.4), W10 Mail has crashed out 3 times. Edge is 'sticking' (short lockups). Amazon music all the icons are missing, just blank rectangles. iTunes was asking me to rebuy my purchased music. Too many coincidences in unrelated software that is normally rock solid. 14393.222 wasn't easy on my desktop. The shit is starting to hit the fan. I think it's drivers that is the issue, it was with the desktop anyway. Its trying 14393.321 now. |
