I wish I would of had some warning of this update I thought they had done all the updates.. Yet I do not know what is new for this update all I know is that Cortana is more intrusive than it was before I turned it off. Now that it is off it still resurfaces asking me questions wish it would just Pee Off!!!

I read this forum daily. That's how I got the warning (others got the update last week). As soon as I saw Win 10 was updated I "knew" I had to go re-auth XLN.
 
Of course there are those that say I need to get a life, so three's that too.

For anyone using S Gear (without I lok) the licence needs to be 'repaired' as a result of this update. Fortunately it is simple to do - but xln aren't the only ones affected.

Yup Cortana certainly was more intrusive on latest update but thankfully everything else was okay and I had already had version installed for a month on my backup pc. Microsoft are already working on next update 
....
You can usually spot the update when it mentions feature update in the list to install and a 3GB download has occurred creating a new folder in C drive starting with "bt".

 My issues are usually network related. Turn off password protected sharing is broken.  I usually have to do the network credentials again and so far I've been lucky remembering those passwords.  Eventually you find other things that was reset.   The evolving OS was an Apple thing and now Windows users get screwed as well. I got an email alert from some developer not to use the latest Mac OS because of compatibility issues.

Indeed. It really isn't too much of a mystery why many people are desperately clinging to Win 7 for their professional DAW's despite the slight performance improvements in Win10.

Well, to each their own I suppose. I vastly prefer W10 to W7 and feel it MS is generally in a good place and going in a good direction with it. It's been more stable and fluid and clean to work with for me than any previous Windows, and that's on multiple machines. Older machines, for that matter, that were never designed to work with it - but even my old unsupported hardware is still ticking merrily along. The updates have been low-impact, easy and free. Not sure what's to complain about really. 
 
Mind you, I was also one of the rare strange folks who liked W8, and 8.1 even more. But I like 10 more than any of them. For me it's been consistently pretty pleasant and rewarding with iterative improvements - kind of like my Sonar experience at this point. So I'm always a bit mystified when people go off on MS like they're some terrible company with incompetent coders and an awful product (why do they keep using it then? there are alternatives!)... Sure there are hiccups along the way, as with anything, especially an OS of such mindblowing complexity, that needs to run on a functionally infinite range of hardware and software that is out of the company's control. So the fact that it works as well as it does is, to me, almost miraculous. Not to mention that the amount of money I've actually paid MS for all of this, over the last 20 years or so, is vanishingly small compared to what I've spent on other software that I use less and that does less, and is buggier much of the time into the bargain. 
 
So for me the minor inconvenience of updating my XLN authorization on two machines, which took about 5 minutes total, is a rather small price to pay for keeping current with what is now a clean, robust and modern OS. I'll happily do it again next time MS posts a major update!

I guess it just depends on your experience with with win10 Tobias. I was an early adopter and had driver problems with every update. I do have it running on two non essential PC's and it's fine in that crcumstance where the forced updates don't bother me. In my studio I tend to err on the side of caution whilst things are running smoothly and only update when absolutely necessary.
 
I am certainly not anti Microsoft though, and I am glad it is working well for you and many others:) It is no doubt where we will all end up.
