tom95521 Posted October 3, 2018 Report Posted October 3, 2018 You can force the update now if you want. Everything seems to be working OK (including PTE). https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/get-windows-10-update-now,5831.html Tom Quote
JudyKay Posted October 5, 2018 Report Posted October 5, 2018 Thanks, Tom. I can't wait to see what goodies are in there. Quote
nelson Posted October 6, 2018 Report Posted October 6, 2018 Does this address the issue that Windows 10 v1803 caused jerky playback of PTE presentations? I rolled the update back and stopped future updates on my laptop. My main computer still uses windows 7. I did a small presentation at our club the other night that ran smooth on my laptop. Ran it through the club laptop and it was very jerky as they had updated to 1803. Can others confirm. Many thanks, Kieron Quote
Igor Posted October 6, 2018 Report Posted October 6, 2018 Kieron, We'll check updated Windows 10 (1809) next week with NVIDIA mobile dual graphics. We also recently received a confirmation from NVIDIA about earlier reported problem with slow performance. So I hope that they will prepare the solution soon. Quote
tom95521 Posted October 6, 2018 Author Report Posted October 6, 2018 The update has been temporarily disabled while Microsoft checks out deleted users files. There is a new Nvidia 416.6 driver for 1809. https://www.engadget.com/2018/10/06/windows-10-october-update-delete-pulled/ Tom Quote
tom95521 Posted November 15, 2018 Author Report Posted November 15, 2018 It's released again. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10 Tom Quote
JudyKay Posted November 15, 2018 Report Posted November 15, 2018 Thanks, Tom. I missed updating last time and am glad I did! Quote
tom95521 Posted November 15, 2018 Author Report Posted November 15, 2018 I just finished updating my third windows computer to version 1809. So far no problems. Tom Quote
JudyKay Posted November 15, 2018 Report Posted November 15, 2018 Three computers here as well and all fine. The update killed my VPN client, but an update on each computer cured that. Quote

Tom After seeing your posting, I just checked my Windows update status and it shows '1803' and 'up to date'. Where is the 1809 update? This morning, an automatic 'update' occurred but it still shows '1803'. What am I missing? Gary Quote
tom95521 Posted November 15, 2018 Author Report Posted November 15, 2018 Hi Gary, Microsoft is doing a "staged rollout" of the update so it might be a few days before installation. If you want the update now I would try the link I posted above to download the microsoft app that does a manual update. Only one of my three PCs did an auto update for 1809. https://blogs.windows.com/windowsexperience/2018/11/13/resuming-the-rollout-of-the-windows-10-october-2018-update/ Thanks, Tom Quote
goddi Posted November 15, 2018 Report Posted November 15, 2018 Tom... Thanks....I will wait in line... Gary Quote
wideangle Posted November 15, 2018 Report Posted November 15, 2018 Well done if it's gone well for you, but I just don't get the logic in the rush to update, especially as recent problems have shown. Regards wideangle Quote
tom95521 Posted November 15, 2018 Author Report Posted November 15, 2018 Hi wideangle, I have 2 semi-logical explanations. 1. I want to have control of exactly when the update takes place. 2. I'm from California. We like to live on the bleeding edge of computing. Tom Quote
wideangle Posted November 15, 2018 Report Posted November 15, 2018 Hi Tom Yes, I get that, and it's always best to be at the sharp end! Regards wideangle Quote
nelson Posted November 15, 2018 Report Posted November 15, 2018 Hi Tom, When you say no problems , does that mean that the issues we had prior in Pictures to exe. are corrected? I updated the video driver to the latest released on the 13th, hopefully the combination of both will solve the prior issues. Thanks, Kieron Quote
tom95521 Posted November 16, 2018 Author Report Posted November 16, 2018 Hi Kieron, I cannot verify it has been fixed. I have not experienced the Nvidia bug on my Lenovo ideaPad i7 with Nvidia GTX 660 laptop. I think this is the latest from Igor. He may have further information. Tom Quote
nelson Posted November 16, 2018 Report Posted November 16, 2018 Installed 1809 and latest NVIDIA driver. I am now using Acronis backup to 1709 on Laptop. Will stay with Windows 7 on desktop computer. Unfortunately can not upgrade to the latest Photoshop build for Windows 10. The micro stuttering is still evident on transitions with the new update 1809. At least for me. Before 1803 everything is smooth. Will wait for Igor to assess the latest update. Until then I will prevent Windows 10 from forcing 1803 update on my laptop. Kieron Quote
tom95521 Posted November 16, 2018 Author Report Posted November 16, 2018 I checked and my global default in the Nvidia control panel was integrated GPU. After enabling the Nvidia gpu I get an error message. I hope Nvidia comes up with a fix soon. Tom Quote
nelson Posted November 16, 2018 Report Posted November 16, 2018 If you google micro stuttering in windows 1803 and 1809 the gamers are furious. They have some apparent fixes or hacks that they say are working for them. Is it a windows problem? or NVIDIA? or the combination after build 1709. Kieron Quote

Tom Hi Tom, I've read about terrible wildfire in California in November and I hope that you're in a safe place. Quote
tom95521 Posted November 17, 2018 Author Report Posted November 17, 2018 Hi Igor, Yes, very safe. I live in Arcata, a small town very close to the Pacific ocean. We sometimes have earthquakes and maybe tsunami warnings, but never forest fires. The town of Paradise which was destroyed is about 360 km south east. It is much drier and hotter inland. https://goo.gl/maps/8UQNb1wd31y Thanks, Tom Quote
wideangle Posted December 2, 2018 Report Posted December 2, 2018 Just read that Microsoft have blocked the rollout of the October update of Windows 10 for a second time. Apparently it ceased on Nov 21 for people whose monitors had Intel drivers, because it was causing sound problems. Another good reason for not rushing into these things it seems. Regards wideangle Quote
Igor Posted December 3, 2018 Report Posted December 3, 2018 We checked Windows 10 v1809 update. The problem with a slow performance on mobile dual NVIDIA + Intel graphics is NOT solved yet. Avoid the update to v1803 or 1809 as long as possible. We're still waiting the solution from NVIDIA after their confirmation of this problem. Quote
