Had a little pop up message (bottom right corner of screen) that Windows had failed to install an update. Opened update centre and did a check for updates. It said it had found one and would install it at a suggested time, at a time of my choice or now. I wasn't doing much so I opted for now.

Bit puzzled by the ginormous process that was kicked off, but about 40 minutes later I realised it had re-installed Windows 10. Logs all cleared out, Updates history says no updates installed yet, messages promised exciting new features.

No harm done as far as I can tell. Anybody else heard of this happening (apart from just now)?

That's the Fall Update, essentially windows 10.1 or whatever you want to call it. Lots of bug fixes and UI tweaks.

MS is moving to a much faster upgrade cycle, like Chrome or FF. Seems sensible for a browser, not sure how it's going to work for Windows though.

If Feds call you and say something bad on me, it may prove what I said are truth, they are afraid of it.

Interesting. Haven't kept an eye on what they're up to although I thought there was a big update in November.

That's the same thing, yes. There aren't really any exciting new features.

This is November as far as MS's phased roll out is concerned. Also the original update was pulled because it reset your privacy settings and people were (rightly) a bit pissed off.

Must give our w10 test box in the corner a poke on my way by one of these days and see what it's got up to.
