I reserved Windows 10 on my gaming PC and it says "ready to go!" but unless I hit Go, it hasn't updated automatically to 10.

My HP laptop has battery issues in Windows 10. If I shut the laptop off, the battery keeps draining. Every single god drat time I power it up it has 0% battery and needs to recharge. And yes, I'm shutting it down and not putting it in sleep or hibernation. It's nuts.

Stanley Pain posted:Then your shutdown isn't actually powering off your laptop. Are you shutting down then immediately closing the lid? That's exactly what it sounds like. I've experimented by shutting it down then letting it sit there with the laptop open for hours. I shut it down at 100%, then a half day later I power it back up and it's at 20%.

Stanley Pain posted:What happens if you just hold the power button down to turn it off? See if it still drains that was as a test. This worked. If I hold the power button to turn off the laptop, then it is legitimately off and the battery doesn't get drained. if I power it down via Windows then the battery drains.

xamphear posted:Yep. I mentioned it a ton of pages ago. You have to uninstall the appx entirely via PowerShell to make it go away for good, I think. Run these two commands in an elevated PowerShell and it should delete them for good. If you don't want to gently caress around in Powershell, or have other built in apps you want removed, download this free app: http://www.iobit.com/en/advanceduninstaller.php Works great getting rid of that junk.

My test machines at work have Windows 10 Pro on them. I updated them through Windows Update to the new Nov upgrade. It added loving Candy Crush to the start menu. I uninstalled it, and logged in as a different user. Candy Crush is back. Awesome.

Zero VGS posted:I finally caught a break with it. I made a Windows 10 image for my company from a clean 1511 ISO right before they revoked it, and with Produkey I'm able to grab the Win8 key out of the BIOS and paste it straight into the Activation tab to get these all upgraded now. Still have another couple hundred laptops at work to go through but it beats the previous slog of doing an in-place Win8 upgrade to 10, then reimaging to the pre-configured 10 image then praying that it would magically decide to activate some time over the next few days. You have that many workstations and no KMS?

That's just an rear end in a top hat thing to say. "Use a different OS". OK yeah let me quit my Windows admin gig and go full linux because I dislike how Microsoft is pushing loving Candy Crush down on each user without me having to gently caress around with the registry.

Whizbang posted:If you're still having problems with Candy Crush, you weren't a good Windows admin anyways. This is basically the only way to fix it: http://blogs.technet.com/b/mniehaus/archive/2015/11/23/seeing-extra-apps-turn-them-off.aspx Also it's just with build 1511, so I'm not sure where you're coming from. It's not like it's been an issue since the original win10 release. And of course you have to install build 1511 specific ADMX templates to even see the GPO.

So I removed a bunch of apps via Powershell so they wouldn't be on any user logins. Now when I login as a new user, I see this in the start menu: Any idea how to remove those 5 on the bottom? Right-click has nothing.

Boris Galerkin posted:I just did a clean install of Windows 10 home and what the gently caress why did Microsoft think "clean install" means to include loving Candy Crush and a poo poo ton of other shitapps that I'm never going to use? Is there really no way to do a barebones install with no added bullshit? Only with an Enterprise license. By the way, if you remove those, they get pushed down automatically. You need to block them via local GPO. Yeah it's hosed.

OneDrive seems to be able to log in just fine, as can everything non-Microsoft related. Also Chrome is detecting me as being in Germany for some reason, despite the VPN being set to the UK, but I suspect that's a different issue. Is it AnyConnect and does your work push down Cisco Web Security with it?

MaxDuo posted:gently caress Netgear. About 3-4 months ago my old TP Link usb wireless stick started messing up so I got a USB stick by Netgear based off of a bunch of test results and reviews. I get this new usb stick and joyfully find out that it barely works with Windows 10. For a while I just ran a cable across the house to my computer, but that's not an option at my new place so I'm back to having to unplug and replug the usb for wifi every 10 minutes to 2 hours or so.
