Windows 10: Windows 10 consistent BSOD following windows update 1809 on 18 Feb 2019

Hi,



Since the Windows 10 feature update (1809) was installed on my laptop, I have been receiving various BSOD with resulting Bugcheck codes including: -

• 0x00000139 KERNEL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE
• 0x00020001HYPERVISOR_ERROR
• 0x000000d1DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

Occurrence seems to be random as are the codes returned; any help would be greatly appreciated as this is drastically affecting my work productivity and has already caused me to lose some things being worked upon.


My background is in IT, software engineering, Microsoft systems etc. so happy with high-level of technical discussion.


System Information:-

• Windows 10 Pro
• HP Pro Book 470 G4

o All drivers etc. up-to-date (see image below for details)

o Samsung 860 EVO M.2 SATA 512GB hosts Windows 10, 317GB Free

o 8GB DDR4 RAM


I have linked the minidumps I have and also taken an extract of the application and system event logs (warnings and above) but not sure if these are safe to link to here? (if so let me know).


Regards,


William Foster

Office 2019

Only supported on Win10. Sorry, 8.1 users, only 4 years old, gotta go.

Microsoft Office 2019 will only work on Windows 10

Spoiler Office 2019
Last year at Ignite, we announced Office 2019 – the next perpetual version of Office that includes apps (including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook, and Skype for Business) and servers (including Exchange, SharePoint, and Skype for Business). Today we’re pleased to share the following updates:

• Office 2019 will ship in H2 of 2018. Previews of the new apps and servers will start shipping in the second quarter of 2018.
• Office 2019 apps will be supported on:
  • Any supported Windows 10 SAC release
  • Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2018
  • The next LTSC release of Windows Server
• The Office 2019 client apps will be released with Click-to-Run installation technology only. We will not provide MSI as a deployment methodology for Office 2019 clients. We will continue to provide MSI for Office Server products.

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK

Microsoft Office 2019 Will Run on Windows 10, and Only Windows 10

Windows 7 went out of mainstream support on Jan 15, 2015.
Windows 8.1 went out of mainstream support on Jan 9, 2018.
And I doubt anyone on Windows 8.1 would mind too much upgrading to Windows 10. I definitely would not *Big Grin

They are supporting only Windowses currently in mainstream support. For Windows 10, they seem to have moved the support model to the bi-annual updates being supported for 2 years and more recently 1.5 years.

Has it been said if Office 2019 will actually work on Windows 7/8.1? Supported and actually working can be different things. Kind of like the "on supported hardware" comment above.
