Microsoft Fixes Windows 10 Anniversary Update Freezing Issues (betanews.com)
An anonymous reader writes: The Anniversary Update may have introduced a whole host of new features but it has also caused a fair number of problems for Windows 10 users. Among the most annoying issues reported since its release in late-July are freezes on systems equipped with SSDs. Microsoft has acknowledged the problem and provided a couple of workarounds that users could try, promising that a permanent fix would eventually be made available. Microsoft now says that it has addressed the freezing issues in the latest Cumulative Update that it just released. "After the launch of the Anniversary Update for Windows 10, Microsoft received a small number of reports of Windows 10 freezing when signing into Windows after installing the Anniversary Update. With the help of users and MVP's who posted on this thread an investigation determined that a small fraction of users who had moved app information to a second logical drive could encounter this issue," explains Microsoft.
You are truly right, for any system that hasn't had an OS upgraded since 15th June 2015.
I have Windows 10 running on 20 computers that I own, and I've installed it on about 100 computers that I don't own in the past year...
I have yet to have a problem with it, it is rock solid... as good as, if not better than Windows 7 when it launched, and far easier to use than Windows 8...
Most of the 20 that I own have been updated to the Anniversary Update, also working perfectly...
