Windows 10: Windows 10 January 2019 has important bugs

Hello, We are using Windows 10 for a long time now and we never had serious bugs or issues with the OS but since the latest upgrade in January Build number: Windows 10, Version 1809. Multiple of our computers get bluescreens and hang randomly on low tasks all our systems run on SSDs and latest hardware. The latest Win10 upgrade broke our systems and we hope that this can be please fixed in the next update release. All systems still boot up correctly but they quickly hang and take a few seconds to response it's definitely not a hardware issue since this occurs on multiple of our systems.


If you need more information please let us know. We could quickly recover our system to a state before we did the upgrade but we better consider to let you at Microsoft know about the issue to fix it in a later release.



We hope that this will be fixed.



Sincerely


Karim

:)

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
