did you somehow trigger the clean install?

not like, intentionally, but what you're describing is the "don't save my apps or settings" install option

not that i would know if, regular update process through the windows update panel. i had some user agent services problem earlier, but i don’t know how this would relate to that yet

For me, it only reset a few settings. Like autoplay, Defender and other odds and ends. Sound settings and language options remained untouched, for once!

idk, i thought it was common knowledge that windows 10 loses your settings on updates? its been like that since the first big update

it also doesn’t exactly make sense for this to be a clean install since the 3rd party security stuff and browser utilities started up correctly. also, plenty of applications i checked had their settings and application data intact, just not chrome. also, they were properly registered in start menu and poo poo

also the account services problem did persist through update

i installed the latest update just earlier and apart from taking a comical amount of time to actually install (better part of an hour for the pre-reboot background installation and then a good 15 minutes post-reboot) it's more of the same really. the usual settings got nuked (only one i remember is scheduled defrag config) and my intel NIC teaming completely broke but that always happens and usually gets fixed when intel release new software (i'm sure the blame is split 50-50 between microsoft and those shiftless fucks at intel for the debacle that is teaming/VLANs with intel NICs on win10).

i kinda like the idea of your phone, being able to access my photos without mucking around would be noice but lol it's not working

oh and cinci mushroom dingus or whatever it really sounds like you hosed something up lol

update status on work computer - started updating. it went smoothly through pre-restart routine of downloading and preliminary installation. then, i went for update and restart, where the update it failed so now it downloaded the update again and is installing it again, and the error code of 0x800f081f has literally no meaningful information available

your install be broke, friend

tbf, this is pretty much identical to what will happen if you have a bunch of unsupported reghacks that break one or more component prereq checks too. not saying you do in this case, because damaged system files or corrupted install cache will also do this, but whatever. yo poo poo be broke.

don't worry, it had forgotten to install 1 kb updated that it remembered to do now, but in turn it no longer sees the feature update as accessible :laffo: also yeah no no reghacks and this is 5 months old installation on a mint computer that is not used for anything obscure
