This is what is so frustrating. Bog standard installs of 1607 and 1703 joined to a domain, connected to WSUS and failing all over the shop. Many people having problems, many aren't. So what am I doing wrong!

To think we used to mock Vista, yet we seem to accept this mess! W10 is Vista with a new start menu.

Nope, I'm not! Only security and critical updates for Windows and Office but Windows Update doesn't do what I tell it to do anymore!

I'm come to the conclusion now that Windows Update is fundamentally broken. Used W7 and WSUS for years and it worked beatifully. Now I seem to spend way too much of my time working out why one version or another of W10 isn't updating. Freshly imaged set of W10 PCs, joined to domain and WSUS and all reporting the same errors: {0C580B8D-B99F-4EC7-B205-02BA58D7CAAF} 2017-06-14 08:19:50:899+0100 1 167 [AGENT_DOWNLOAD_STARTED] 101

Same thing every day, of course the logs are utterly useless now so I can't fix this. Back to W7 for that set until the hardward is replaced!

I didn't mind it too much, not as good as the Brendan Fraser ones but a harmless couple of hours of entertainment!

Theres an increasing amount of stuff (especially ios Apps) that don't work with https inspection!

Ahh that did it, it was the com.twitter.tfs.authservice that was missing from my https exceptions list!

Works fine offsite or via phone, but I can't see why or where the smoothwall would be blocking it!

We use twitter for some school feeds so have tried to install it on some ipads. However whenever anyone tries to sign in (with a tested,valid account) the app respond with an error: The operation couldn't be completed. (com.twitter.tfs.authservice error 9) I've checked our smoothwall and can't see anything being blocked, and excluded it fromt https inspection makes no difference either. Works fine in the browser on the same ipad though! Anyone seen this error before, I can't seem to find anything wrong.

On the same subject, what happened to the update logs, now you have to extract them with powershell and end up with garbage like this: 1601/01/01 00:00:00.0000000 268 5500 Unknown( 285): GUID=a3b718ad-b475-3547-b144-d6799a426ed5 (No Format Information found). 1601/01/01 00:00:00.0000000 268 3568 Unknown( 204): GUID=a3b718ad-b475-3547-b144-d6799a426ed5 (No Format Information found). 1601/01/01 00:00:00.0000000 268 3568 Unknown( 34): GUID=7b9bf239-47b9-3688-3a9e-14f09f262608 (No Format Information found). 1601/01/01 00:00:00.0000000 268 3568 Unknown( 38): GUID=50a5ef43-b2b6-3c52-145b-a386d8769665 (No Format Information found). What am I supposed to do with that information then MS? I have 20 PCs stuck at the usual 0% downloading all with logs full of useless lines like the above!

I've found the rollout of W10 to be the messiest, most inconsistent and most frustrating rollout of any OS in my 25 years of working ICT - and I used to install Windows 3.11 from floppy disks! Windows Update is so unreliable now its probably worth forgetting about it, especially as the new way W10 works is basically releasing a whole new (buggier!) OS every few months anyway. I've ditched WSUS in some primaries and just set the W10 PCs to auto update. Needless to say that doesn't work either.....

Updates don't work, explorer crashes a lot,random freezes, above problem with certain sits in all browsers, plus all the previous bugs and issues from the versions before!

Yeah we use WSUS for most PCs, but leave a handful of admin PCs to be done manually. Logic being that a dodgy update will still leave us with some working PCs to get on and fix it! 1703 is awful. Can't roll back anymore either.

And another weird thing with 1703 is that the 'Edit post/Reply with Quote' etc buttons on this page no longer work - in IE,Chrome or Firefox! What a mess.

We do use WSUS generally but not for some admin/text PCs, which is where the error is happening. Worked ok in 1607 ironically.

Every version of Windows 10 seems to fix one problem and bring 10 new ones! I updated to 1703 and now get the error 0x8024401c every time I try to run Update. Seriously, what are MS doing with this POS operating system! We've rolled out 10 to about 40% of our PCs and I have zero faith it in anymore.

Ta, I'll give that a try!

I'm adding a couple of 2016 servers to our current 2012 stock, and I'm guessing that server 2016 is basically 99.9% Windows 10 so I shouldn't be suprised when updates don't work! I've got two brand new VM's both stuck at 0% downloading. Is it the usual case as with Windows 10 that updates are just broken or do I leave it longer than the 48 hours I've already waited?

Well, weidly I managed to download the 'old' version from a test install of osx 10.7.5, which I copied to another 10.9.2 mac and it works ok!

It doesn't seem to offer older versions, on a 10.9 OSX mac the app store only offers the latest iMovie, and when you try to 'Get' it tells you that you need OSX 10.10 or higher.

I've got some 10.9 OSX Macs, which were bought with 10.6 and gradually updated. I seem to have lost iMovie on them and I can't find a way to download it from anywhere. Apple seem to have bundled it, or charged for it, or upgraded it for free over the years but now I can't use the latest iMovie as it needs OSX 10 and Apple don't provide a previous version! Is there any way to get iMovie for 10.9 or is it a case of waiting until they're updated to 10.10 (which will not be soon due to the SMB and Apple Profile Manager problems we had!)

No - I only wanted to make a couple of minor changes to the iPads (done this loads of times) but after removing the profile it suddently decided that a profile can't be added anymore! Argh!

Yeah its the same one, unfortunately I'm managing these remotely so I can't interact with the iPads!

Another day, another apple configurator 2 problem! Trolley of 20 ipads configured with AC2, removed the profile and tried to re-add it after a couple of changes, and it tells me that it can't apply the profile: 'Configurator require user interaction to install the profile on ipad because it is not supervised' Really? How come all of the ipads show in the Supervised tab, and none in the Unsupervised tab? So thanks to AC2 I need to completely wipe and restore all of these just to change a minor couple of tweaks in the profile. Nice one!

Its frustrating as I can get the test 10.9.5 ones to connect and the AD/OD seems to work, and even the preferences seem to copy down but the laggy nature of it makes it unusable! I tried all the usual stuff back in the days of 10.8 and came to the conclusion apples version of smb does not agree with MS's version!
