These are:9NCBCSZSJRSB-SpotifyAB.SpotifyMusic9NXQXXLFST89-Disney.37853FC22B2CECould anyone shed light on this for me? The third app was Microsoft.YourPhone which is not a concern.Are these some type of system install as opposed to the actual apps?--------Running Windows 10 Home 21H2.On 9/14/2022 I updated both Cumulative Updates:Windows 10 Version 21H2 KB5017308.NET Framework 3.5, 4.8 and 4.81 for Windows 10 21H2 KB5017500

    Is it time for Windows 10 already?

    Again, for those that want the update reservation and you meet the requirements ---> Upgrade to Windows 10 for Free

    And, some info from the FAQ page:

    Also, some interesting info from the Specifications page:

    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

    Win10 updates

    The initial one was KB3035583 to get the Get Windows 10 app (GWX). Though that particular update is probably pages upon dozens of pages down the list by now.
