Changelog? My mouse feels different after the update, somehow way faster than before. Am I the only one with this?

Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1511 and Windows Server 2016 Technical Preview 4: May 10, 2016
https://support.microsoft.com/de-de/kb/3156421

 

I cant find anything mouse or driver related in the changelogs, it feels different though I am totally sure about this.

 

Possible Workaround ???

The easiest way to fix this slowdown issue caused by the update is to simply disable Cortana. And yet, if you want to continue using the personal assistant on your computer, there’s still no fix available for the moment.

In order to disable Cortana, all you have to do is to click the search box in the taskbar to launch Cortana, open the Notebook and hit the Settings button. Toggle the option that reads “Cortana can give you suggestions, ideas, reminders, alerts, and more” to off and you should be good to go.

For the moment, this seems to be the only bug caused by the new cumulative update, but we’ll continue to look into reports and let you know as soon as we come across other issues.

 

What are you even talking about?

 

Sorry, my mistake! *Smile

 

No problem. People make mistakes in this forum all the time.

One piece of good news, to me that is.
The previous issue of .................. "sfc found corrupt files but unable to repair > dism operation successful > sfc found corrupt files but unable to repair" musical chair has finally been fixed.

 

Updated without a hitch. So far so good!*Smile

 

Thank-you for posting a link to the Change Log. What does, "Improved reliability in a number of areas including Cortana, Bluetooth, Shell, Internet Explorer 11, Microsoft Edge, Miracast, and USB." mean?

If a program like Edge is already functioning, how do you improve upon its reliability? I think the "reliability" of Edge has been improved at least 7 times since it was formally released as a stable browser last year. It works the same for me now as it did in August of 2015.

IMO, what's needed is more capabilities...not reliability. Not this late in the game.

 

ho hummer. actually got back over a free gb of drive space after windows update clean up did its thing. perform a disk clean up, you should see the win update clean up size in the list of files to clean.

 

edit: Concurred. sfc /scannow fixed. But still getting ESENT/svchost errors on reboots.

"svchost (1916) Terminating process due to non-recoverable failure: PV: 10.0.10586.0 SV: 10.0.10586.0 GLE: 0 ERR: -1603(fucb.cxx:359): dllentry.cxx(103) (ESENT[10.0.10586.0] RETAIL RTM MBCS)"

Will ignore these for now.
