Windows 10: Is it possible to stay in Windows 10 build 10240 ?

Hello,


I'd like to know if it's safe not to upgrade to other editions of Windows 10 (such as 1703, 1803, ...), if there are still patches & security updates for the first release in 2015.

Because, personally, I find the new versions quite slow in terms of gaming performance and quite buggy (ntoskrnl.exe taking one full core all the time when fast-boot is on).

Also, my PC takes up to 5 minutes to shutdown or restart and my system clock rewinded back 2 hours for no reason. Everytime I change it back and restart, it's still hapenning.


Thanks.

:)

Build 10240 - Any expiry on ACTIVATED versions??

I was going to do that for my benefit because of the way I have my partitions setup and to be legal with the EULA that isn't a step by step instruction. Right now I am waiting to see if build 10240 is actually the release build and yes I know at lot of people don't believe 10240 is the release version. I still may need to do that if build 10240 is not the release version.
