Windows 10 May 2019 Update has been released to the public

Chomiq · May 22, 2019

I've installed 1809 only about 2 months ago and it STILL has issues. I'm not rushing it with this one.

Oh FFS Microsoft, how the F**K do you miss this in testing??? https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4500988/windows-update-hold-for-windows-10

Essentially, if you have an external storage device connected, Windows 10 1903 may arbitrarily change the drive letter it's mapped to. But wait, it gets better:

MS KB said:
Note The drive reassignment is not limited to removable drives. Internal hard drives may also be affected.

So any drive (apart from the system drive I assume) can have its drive letter remapped for no reason. And somehow they didn't catch this in testing. What an absolute bunch of idiocy!

There is no real testing is how it got through. It’s been 3 years now since MS Q A was shown the door as unnecessary.

I played it safe and unplugged the two internal SATA SSDs from the mobo just in case setup mucked with drives partitions.

Already installed works nicely so far

The battleye issue is mitigated, though quite a few known games use it, need to keep them updated with latest binaries to avoid BSOD.

Creative XFi Titanium HD still lacking driver for 1903, I found beta drivers from reddit but since problems reported from Windows and the driver itself I'm not updating anytime soon.

FYFI13 · May 23, 2019

Usually i don't do this but curiosity took over. Made a backup and upgraded my gaming rig to v1903. It's day two and everything seems to run just fine, might try to upgrade other machines some time this weekend.

freeagent · May 23, 2019

I didn't let it patch from winupdate, I just installed a clean .iso.. first impressions.. I like it. Runs smooth, some tweaks here and there I see, so far so good. Runs good on my ancient hardware. Only complaint is all the cpu mitigations since this whole thing started is messing with my overclock. Add more vcore, cant use certain mem speeds with certain cpu speeds and HT enabled, a bit redonkulous.. took some figuring but I got er nailed down. Lost a couple hundred MHz overall, and small amount of flexability.. not the end of the world, but still sucks. Either that or she is just degrading

I'm running it.

Drivers now must be Universal Windows Driver. Most things are up to date but I did run into a compatability issue with VJoy, a simple virtual joystick I pump input from my xbox one controller into via a custom written feeder program in order to map the guide button.

Guess I'm going to have to say goodbye guide button for now, because the author of VJoy says he has no intention to fix it, and I'm not about to pony up for a cert license to sign drivers.

Details on that here:

Windows 10 1809 vJoy fails to install · Issue #23 · shauleiz/vJoy

The installer starts and never finish just hangs there at the very end , looks like the progress bar has reached the end but it never finish the installation . With no option left I force close the...

github.com

If anyone cares about this, I made updated vjoy drivers but lack a code signing cert to sign them. You'd need to disable secure boot and enable testsigning mode to use them, but I can make them available if anyone here cares about vjoy (I'm betting no, as it is a pretty niche product).

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4500988/windows-update-hold-for-windows-10

I'm not getting this problem as I ran the 1903 setup program directly from a usb thumb drive & there was an SD card plugged into the internal usb card reader device (and have disconnected from the internet - I always do "offline" win10 installs)

Yeah man, latest Radeon public driver turned the screen red and fuzzy when installing. Also I use Re-live recording all the time and there isn't any audio in the recording. Its a problem with these shitty Realtek audio drivers.

Same here. Red or magenta. About to do it again right now. Let's see if I get another color this time...

Nope. Red again.

Been running since 9/4 not a problem at all.

trparky · May 29, 2019

Well after a week of running it on my notebook that I didn't care about that had no issues, I installed it on my desktop. I wasn't stupid about it though, I made a full Macrium Reflect disk image of the boot drive before I did the upgrade so that if things did go wrong I could be back up and running as if nothing happened. Thankfully I didn't need that disk image, everything went smoothly.

Lots of folks still do care about this one...I certainly do!

Thanks, nice to know I'm not alone, heh.

If anyone else wants an updated VJoy, you can do the following after enabling testsigning:

Try this archive, extract it into your vjoy install directory (after failing to install the latest vjoy) on Windows 10 with testsigning enabled.

After that, run the VJoy Configuration program (make sure you opted to install it). It should work to add a device at that point.

I wonder if/when MS will integrate this fix directly into the ISO.

Got a notification this morning for the windows 10 May update on my desktop, got it installed now, all seems ok.

Haven't got a notification yet on my laptop, that may be because of this:

"Display brightness may not respond to adjustments
Microsoft and Intel have identified a driver compatibility issue on devices configured with certain Intel display drivers.

Windows 10 May 2019 Update has been released to the public

When are you going to install it?

As soon as I have the chance.

I'm going to wait a while.

What Windows 10 upgrade? I'm still on Windows 7!

What is Windows? I run Linux.

Already Installed/Running
