What is your favorite Windows 10 bug?

Mine is the shutdown. I put my Windows 10 laptop into Hibernate or Sleep mode and close the lid. Come back later and it doesn't wake back up. Have to restart the whole thing from scratch.
10

I hate it when the operating system won't turn my display back on after it goes to sleep... Oh wait, that's on my iMac, wrong thread

I don't think that's a windows 10 bug. That's a setting issue, possibly two settings and one of those may be in bios.

Just did a fresh install on our laptop recently. It's now randomly making a notification sound every few minutes with nothing popping up. So, I killed system sounds.

Yep. Sleep equals shut down.

The one where it gets stuck in an update and renders my computer completely useless for 10-15 minutes.

Updated from XP to Win10 and lost sound.
Tried updating firmware and sound driver.

You mean the 10-15 minutes while it is updating? Brilliant.

Mine was updating from 7 to 10 and it ruined my computer because it shut down the BIOS and won't let anything bootup and all of the USB ports were dead.

NO! The one that throws up a blue screen without notice randomly and automatically closes all programs I have open while it updates. The Assclown that wrote this into Win-10 should be drug from his moms basement by his ears and kicked in the dick repeatedly.

It warned you before it did that.

Do tell please. It has never given me a warning of any kind that I've been aware of. Just straight to the blue screen with the percentage install meter. Once at 100%, computer restarts loosing all work I was currently working on.

You familiar with the Action Center? I get alerts at least 2 days before it would auto update.

It takes like less than 15 seconds for my Win10 laptop to start up. I rarely use the sleep function anyways.

I only have Windows 10 in a VM, and there are a couple of design changes that really piss me off.
1. I can't easily turn off automatic Windows Updates as I've always done, so that I can run it manually after Bork Tuesday or when a zero day is reported. The automatic restarts have interfered with a lengthy process I use the VM for, and I had to start the whole thing over. I can't just leave it running overnight without checking to see if Microsoft is going to frick me in my sleep.
2. The Quick Access pane in File Explorer hides the shortcuts for hidden folders I've dragged to it unless I enable the display of hidden items. This means I have to Show Hidden to see my AppData shortcut, which I've been creating there as long as Quick Access has existed, I think since Windows 7. It used to be called Favorites, and items there were actual shortcuts (.lnk files) with their own Properties. In Windows 10, it's like they're junctions or symbolic links.

Are you meaning where it updates itself when it determines you are not using the system?
We run 24\7 so there are always some computers in use. Microshit allows you to configure times where you are working but it will not allow you to setup like 23 hours. I assume they are doing this because their servers get overwhelmed with everyone doing their updates at 3am.
Our workaround was to block access (via our firewall) from half the computers to the Microshit update site except for when we wanted the updates to be done. Then the other half of our computers can get their updates a couple of hours later.
If you block access to them, the machine cannot update... I still do the updates frequently but this keeps people from being in the middle of something, getting up to check something or eat lunch and when they come back the computer has updated and restarted while what they were working on was no closed out.
My programs do not that just being turned off.

My laptop keeps getting stuck at 1%-2% downloaded on the cumulative Win10 updates since earlier this year. I've gotten tired of hunting down the problems and now just ignore it.
Only the toshiba laptop has the problem, desktops are fine.

I'm still running Windows 95. Should I update? What new features are worth the hassle?

If I were running Windows 10 on my main system, I'd definitely do that if there's no other way. I used to do it for my Apple TV 2, which I was running headless as an audio Airplay bridge to my old receiver. I configured Tomato to block the Apple update servers for the ATV's MAC address. I guess the VM has a constant one, but I've never looked.
