    October 2020 Windows 10 update problems


    Hello all,


    After the Windows 10 update in early October 2020, I've experienced a couple of problems with my Lenovo laptop.


    Firstly, I inserted a CD into my laptop, expecting it to autoplay on VLC media player as it normally would, but no luck. I went to the Windows CD settings and into "Play CDs or other media automatically" in the Control Panel. I enabled AutoPlay for all media and devices, but still the CD would not play, even when I took it out and put it back in. I know it is not a problem with the CD as it has played for me before with no issues.


    Secondly, the Sleep mode on my laptop seems to no longer exist. There are only options for Shut Down and Restart. This is bizarre and I miss Sleep mode, because it was very handy.


    I could roll back the date on my system to an earlier stage, but this wouldn't be ideal and I'd rather fix the issues another way. I would appreciate any suggestions or solutions greatly.


    Thank you

    :)

  2. New install Windows 10 (issue solved)

    It's good that you're not experiencing any issues. Unfortunately many folks are, a quick Google search will show the same info im offering the OP.

    Heres a couple examples:

    Here

    It's basically what I mentioned above, small issues here and there ,but nothing to end your day.. for the most part.

    I know it's anecdotal, but for my experience 95% of the time it's perfectly fine. The issues I've run into wouldn't be enough for me to roll back , but they would be enough (had I not installed it yet) ,to avoid it for another couple weeks which is why I'm suggesting it to the OP

  3. Windows October 2018 update problems

    Hello.

    The Windows 10 October Update has a lot of problems with lost files. So much so that Microsoft took it off the installation media list and has pulled it from updates in general for now.

    If you can, I suggest reverting the update entirely.

    What apps were lost? You may find them in windows.old.

    For settings, you will have to reset them yourself (unless you have a restore point)

    Windows 10 upgrade problem, no input accepted

    I really hate having to come here and ask for help, but I really am stumped. It hurts my geek pride. I have a PC with fairly modern hardware in it. It has a p8p67 pro in it. I have tried upgrading windows 10 on it twice now. Both times I have had the same result.

    After windows finishes upgrading it goes to the log in/set up screen. I can't do anything. No keyboard or mouse input is accepted.

    I will list some, or hopefully all, of the troubleshooting steps I have tried:
    • Move keyboard and mouse to different USB ports.
    • Try different keyboard or mouse.
    • Restart computer, repeatedly.
    • Google for related issues.
    • Update Bios, because why not.
    • Create boot media and revert to windows 7.
    The windows 10 system restore boot media works fine with keyboard and mouse. All USB ports work in windows 7. I don't know what is wrong. I suspect that windows 10 is lacking a driver of some sort, but since the computer accepts no input I have no way of checking for which driver let alone installing it.

    Please help me figure this out. If I have to revert back to windows 7 again, I am not going to get it upgraded to windows 10. Thank you in advanced.
