    Geekout Windows 10 Anniversary Crashes

    Hello Members of AOD,

    Okay so I know I'm the new guy here and you're not actually reading or responding to "any" of my Forums or comments.
    But there are a lot of people out there who are having some SERIOUS issues with the new Windows 10 Anniversary update,
    whether it's your entire OS locking up or it's giving you issues loading your favorite game.
    There are a few work around, for BF4 there is editing your Profile config files to read full screen.
    I've been working on this issue for about two days, I spent 9 solid hours yesterday working on my PC, Uninstalling Origin,
    Uninstalling BF4, Uninstalling GPU Drivers and do a driver sweep. I've done a lot troubleshooting this issue.
    Today I've found a solution DIRECT from the Microsoft Team.
    Wanna know what they suggested to me? LAUGHING SO HARD TODAY!

    Microsoft realized they've messed up using a very small test group with pretty standard machines and have no ideas on where they went
    wrong with their coding. So they've suggested to ALL having the Freezing problems, low computer performance issues and so on...
    Basically they tell you to Rollback to previous version of windows 10.
    So here's a link from Rededit with the Steps to accomplish this.
    This site is NOT rededit but it's been quoted from there. Sorry for link confusion

    I had to use step 2 on recovering my older OS.

    I sincerely hope this helps at least a few of you all

    Thanks

    I'd like to add, to prevent Windows 10 from automatically installing this version, do this:

    Type in search and hit enter: run
    Type and hit enter: gpedit.msc
    Group Policy will open
    Navigate to: Administrative Templates -> Windows Components -> Windows Update
    On the right side window find "Configure Automatic Updates"
    You may set it to Enabled and then chose for example 2 option to Notify about updates or you may simply set to Disabled. To roll back to default settings set it back to "Not Configured"

    Also, this helps to control, what updates to install. You may want to prevent Windows from updating some drivers cause usually Microsoft drivers mess up things and best is to use Manufacture drivers.

    I've attempted opening the Group Policy using this addition AOD_ZedZedski

    I get a "Windows cannot find 'gpedit.msc'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again."

    What Windows version are you running on? Home or Pro?
