Microsoft Delivers Windows 10 SR1

I know what you’re thinking. SR1? Seriously? But it’s true: just a week after the initial release of Windows 10, Microsoft has delivered the first major update to its latest OS. Dubbed Service Release 1 (SR1) internally, this cumulative update for Windows 10 provides no new features but a ton of small fixes.

“This update includes non–security-related changes to enhance the functionality of Windows 10 through new features and improvements, the Knowledge Base article for this update blandly notes. “Windows 10 updates are cumulative. Therefore, this package contains all previously-released fixes (see KB 3074683). If you have installed previous updates, only the new fixes that are contained in this package will be downloaded and installed to your computer.”

While this is certainly a large update, weighing in at about 325 MB, it is of course not the first update to Windows 10: Microsoft has been issuing fixes and other updates for the system since it sort-of-not-really-wink-wink RTM’d last month. But it’s also clear exactly what’s in this update, despite a long change list on the KB page.

Regardless, this will be the first taste of Microsoft’s “rapid release” vision for many. And it does require a reboot, so plan accordingly.

You can find the update—called Cumulative Update for Windows 10 (KB3081424)—in Windows Update.

So what is new guys?

I visited the Microsoft pages - nowhere isn't nothing more than here. So, we must begin to discover.

Its top secret :lol:

​Only thing I find on it is this.

The update was the largest post-launch by far. According to its manifest, the 64-bit version ran approximately 325MB, while the 32-bit version tipped the virtual scale at around 160MB.

Because the update was a cumulative roll-up, meaning it contained repeats of individual fixes or smaller collections issued previously, not everyone will have to download the full package. "If you have installed previous updates, only the new fixes that are contained in this package will be downloaded and installed to your computer," Microsoft said.

Other than that terse commentary and a long list of files to be overwritten or added by the update, the document included no other information about the update's contents. That's become standard practice at Redmond, which has made updates a series of increasingly-mysterious black boxes.

On the driver subject again, another way of blocking driver updates through Windows Update is to simply disable the option of downloading drivers from Windows Update in the Control Panel, which doesn't require the special Microsoft tool. This would solve the issue on a permanent basis but be aware you will need to install drivers yourself for any new device you plug in if Windows doesn't have built-in drivers as it will block ALL drivers from being obtained from Windows Update.

This setting can be accessed by going to the Control Panel -> System -> Advanced system settings -> Hardware -> Device Installation Settings. Set the option to "No, let me choose what to do" and then check off "Never install driver software from Windows Update".


This is not really "recommended" to do because you could block critical system driver updates that may be of importance to the system in the future, which you may need and you forgot that you disabled it via control panel. It is better to use the tool to "hide" updates, then in the future you can "unhide" them with the tool and "check for updates" again to see if the request to download will be automatically removed from the system, as in previous versions of Windows (7/8.1). They would be offered as "optional" but if you found your own driver, did a scan again, they would disappear from the updates list in Windows altogether. This is how it should always be.

I've had a friends printer going "ape shiit" because Windows 10 keeps on trying to download Canon drivers for his printer that W10 recommends which ends up in a constant irql_not_less_or_equal at boot. So I had to restore back and block the damn shiit from Windows forcing an update. Very frustrating O/S, not very user friendly at all.

Lastly, this is not a good sign at all.

Dubbed Service Release 1 (SR1) internally, this cumulative update for Windows 10 provides no new features but does offer a ton of small fixes.


325MB patch for "small fixes" That's about the entire install of Windows 2000. This is also before their supported release of "Threshold" or whatever SP1 they are calling it slated for October 2015 ... less then 2 months away. Personally to me, this is not a good sign at all.

Gabe Abu and all those "hipster dicks" that thought a RTM/RC of version 10240 to rush push out a release on July 29th are a bunch of idiots to release an incomplete O/S that was still full of bugs. If they couldn't finish everything on time or listen to user feedback then maybe they should have pushed back the release date by another few months and have a few more TP released via Fast Ring in order to resolve issues people are having.

The only people that don't seem to have "trouble" with W10 are those that installed minimal apps, have pretty much latest hardware chipsets and don't use the computer other then for gaming and browsing, so they have nothing to install, hence they say W10 is acting "flawless" on their machines. Those with special hardware, not even special, even older laptops, and something as simple as a printer that gets a irql_not_less_or_equal error over a forced W10 update well I don't consider that to be normal.

This is what Windows 10 reminds of me currently.


Someone fix this video to make Bill Gates say, "thats why it seems we are releasing W10 service packs so quickly."

Thanks for my rant.

I just found out that "Diagnostics Tracking" service is not longer in Windows services. looks like Microsoft did something to prevent people from shutting it down.

I'm not saying Windows 10 is good but I have successfully installed it on more than 2 laptops by now that were only certified for Windows 7, so they have pretty old hardware but running Windows 10 flawlessly. Just need to install Win10-ready updated drivers and that's it. I've also installed a dozen of old and new programs on them, no problem so far.

and you said that only gamers use Windows 10, well I gotta tell you that even with all updated drivers, Windows and latest graphic driver, GTA V has some memory leaks in it especially in Online. it normally used 2.5 GB of RAM in Windows 8.1 but in Windows 10 it used 3.5 GB RAM and there was a "system" process that kept my hard disk at 100% full activity. so not a good choice for gamers.

yea i have noticed this memory leak as well, its not a good sign for Windows 10, I am telling you this O/S was not finished on July 29th. They should have tested it at least another 2 months. It is incomplete and full of bugs and memory leaks.
