I do not yet actually know that this build is impressive, but that is what it calls itself, and who am I to argue? My Win10 machine is a desktop that lives in my shop. It is on all the time, so is updated automatically. There were reports of two previous failed attempts to install 10049 for reasons I know not. Yesterday morning I started the process again and went out to do some work. I checked it around mid-day and it had progressed up over 50% (!?). At the end of my day, the entire Settings box had turned black, so I could not tell what its progress was. It was still that way when I went to bed. This may be the slowest update I have ever experienced, so I hope it is, indeed, "impressive."
This morning it was in the "setting up your PC" mode, so something worked. It does report Build 10049 over there in the corner. It rearranged my desktop icons, and, while I was putting them back in order, I discovered two new ones: Korea Media Player Center & Korea Messenger Center. The Properties box for each shows what appears to be legitimate Microsoft links. I have not clicked on these to see where they lead, but will later on. (I like Asian ladies, so am hopeful they may be dating sites.)
I did open Internet Explorer and saw that it is now introducing Spartan. Didn't have time to play with it at the time. The Calendar, Mail and People tiles have lost their names again, but I remember that fix and will do it later. I still have outside work to do and have some cherry trees to spray before the wind comes up. I will take a break sometime during the day and tinker with it to see what is new.
Film at eleven,
