    Only problem I had was it changed some of my default programs such as my web browser and music program and I had to reset them

    Some people have reported it uninstalling programs as mentioned in the article

    My Windows 10 Pro just started downloading a major upgrade to Windows 10 Pro, version 1511, 10586. Today is Saturday, how odd. Anyone else seeing this?

    Update: Looks like this build update started two days ago. I am only seeing it now.

    I've tried to download that three times already, but the download fails- sometimes at around 30%, sometimes at around 90. 

     

    To get my two computers that got stuck at 0% download, my 13 year old (teens are handy) and I used method #2 on this page to get the udates to complete.

    Note: One of the two also required the MS update troubleshooter after this was done to turn back on updater....think my daughter missed turning back on one item in command prompt.

    BTW, tried troubleshooter first off and it did not find a problem. It only found the problem after command prompt fix was applied to the one computer that my daughter apparently missed on of the restart commands for updater. That particular error was fixed with by the troubleshooter.

    Yeah, I notice that. It changed my PDF reader to Edge browser...gag. I changed that along with browser, and music program back to my preferences...and let's not forget having to turn off Cortana all over again.

    LOL! Well, I am going to have to rename the Cortana folder again to get rid of the Cortana service.

    StartIsBack has been updated to work with the latest build. Yes! Got my Start menu back just as it was before.

    Also, I had to install the Slimjet browser (a 64-bit Chrome browser) many of its files were nuked by the update. A simple reinstall got that working again with no problems.
