Win10 Experience, Post 3 (Friday)



This is a blog of the experiences I have Installing and navigating the new Windows 10 Operating System.

Since installing on Monday, Windows 10 has received three automatic updates – Two on Tuesday, one on Wednesday, August 5. It’s still early, Friday morning, and we’re holding at that. The August 5 update is labeled “cumulative,” so it probably incorporates all of the Tuesday fixes with any new ones.  It includes 3912 files which sum to 1.8 GB of information, but only 30 files are 10MB or larger.
The most frequently changed file is “SystemSettingsAdminFlows.exe“ with 78 changes, followed by “Systemsettingsadminflows.exe.mui” with 46 instances. Only seven files have more than 10 instances.

Shell32 and MShtml are the largest fixes, with 64 and 63 GB, respectively, followed by Flash and EDGEhtml files (.63 and 59 GB.)

Facial recognition appears to be a significant change area, with updates for the engine adapter and sensor adapter, totaling 40 GB in four files.  A quick search on Win10 facial recognition reveals nothing more than a special infrared camera is required to use it. EDGE is the new MS browser, which I have not yet looked into. With those two areas prominent in the update, I will be checking them out to see what si new, cool, or even functional.

There is speculation in the MS community that Monday will produce a major release for bug fixes, to be labeled “Service Release 1.” We’ll see next week.
