People will live. Just like when it happens on other OSs.
These things are relatively minor, but because it’s MS, all the usual drama queens have their meltdowns because the name of the game is to scream and yell whenever something like this happens with Windows.

MS has already said that ta fix for PowerShell is coming in 5 days. Since the few people that use it in professional environments dont just apply updates in the first day (at least you shouldn’t), they aren’t going to be affected.

The Amazon device and webcams will likely require some driver upgrade from the respective companies.

Ummm, no they aren't.

Meltdowns aside, these sorts of errors show that responsible, effective Quality Assurance at Microsoft is a lost art.

In my opinion, the technical people were forced to keep to a release schedule for Anniversary because it had to come out on.... wait for it.... THE ANNIVERSARY. Marketing and upper management decreed it so, I'm certain.

Never mind that it wasn't ready.

THAT is why Microsoft deserves every bit of crap being thrown at them about Anniversary. It's a shambles and a travesty.

Microsoft used to be real good. I've used their products since the late 1970's continuously, and for the most part with satisfaction and good results. They used to be REALLY good. But they lost their mojo and this is no way to regain it.
