Is Microsoft ever going to Update Windows 10 so we can easily alphabetize our Favorites as we add or delete them?

I have not downloaded Creators’ update, and given that I had to restore my machine to factory settings once already (Windows 7), meaning that I had to PURCHASE Windows 10 the second time around, I will not be doing so.

I noticed that MS tried 25 times on 25 April to install the latest update to my computer and failed each and every time. My computer is only six months old. This isn’t the first time an update to my computer has failed to install. The first time I found a work around to successfully install the update but can’t seem to find it this time. I’ll just wait until they fix the issue and assume it is their issue and not my computer. I don’t, currently, see a problem with W10 on my machine.

SCCM still can’t manually push major version updates to Windows 10 successfully. They better fix that or major enterprises will be on the anniversary update forever.

One of the biggest problems microsoft has with these updates is their update mechanism. Compared to apt or yum, it’s just a primitive mess.

That’s why I run LTSB. I sacrifice new features for stability and dependable performance.

Any patches will be thoroughly tested before they’re made available for installation.

Security and bug fixes for as long as LTSB is supported.

Even though I waited for update (KB4517245) to download automatically I found it had a bug in it.
I’ve tested in two different machines and confirmed that after the “feature update to windows 10 version 1909 via enablement package (KB4517245)” it’s no longer possible to copy-paste to the search box present in folders (upper right corner) using the mouse, the right click is completely disabled.
This has to be a windows bug.
So far quite a few other users have run across it also.

For now I’ve removed the (KB4517245)…
