  • Download Windows 10 Update 1809 Windows 10: Continue Support for Versions 1803 and Onward
    download windows 10 update 1809 Windows 10: continue support for versions 1803 and onward. I have a question for the Windows team. I want to know if it is possible to continue support for Windows 10 version 1803 and onward? I am using 1809. I am asking is because when 1903 comes out someday, my device might not be able to work with it. I would like to use it but do not want to spend $$ buying a new device. 1809 is a good version. It seems like Microsoft will end support for different versions of Windows 10 different times. Subscribe Subscribe to RSS feed. Report abuse. Replies (6) Support for version 1809 ends on May 12, 2020. All this means is that you will not receive updates for that version, it does not mean that your Windows will cease to function, it will continue working as it always has . If your device cannot take the 1903 update, then it will refuse to install, that is all that will happen, you have nothing to worry about . Power to the Developer!

  • Security Program Blocking Driver Download a Driver Can't Load on This Device
    security program blocking driver download A driver can't load on this device. You are receiving this message because the Memory integrity setting in Windows Security is preventing a driver from loading on your device. Here are a few options you can try if you want to be able to use this driver: See if an updated and compatible driver is available through Windows Update or from the driver manufacturer. If that doesn’t work, try turning off the Memory integrity setting in Windows Security. Warning: If you choose to continue using your device without addressing the driver problem, you might discover that the functionality the driver supports does not work any longer, which could have consequences ranging from negligible to severe. To turn off the memory integrity setting. Go to the Core isolation page in Windows Security. Turn the Memory integrity setting Off if it isn’t already. You'll need to restart your computer for the changes to take effect. You can also open the Core isolation page by selecting Start > Settings > Update & Security > Windows Security > Device Security and then under Core isolation , selecting Core isolation details . Though the driver has a minor vulnerability that’s preventing it from loading, it’s most likely not malicious in any way. The driver name and company name that appear in the notification are the only reliable pieces of information that we have been able to gather about the driver. If an updated driver is unavailable from the driver manufacturer, it might be a good idea to contact them and inquire whether a fix is coming soon.

  • Optimizing Windows 10, Build 2004, for a Virtual Desktop Role
    Optimizing Windows 10, Build 2004, for a Virtual Desktop role Written by Robert M. Smith, Program Manager, Azure Global Customer Engineering Date Created: May 12, 2020 Date Updated: July 08, 2020 Date Published: tbd Contributors: Tim Muessig, Senior Premier Field Engineer; Narklis Engler, Principal Program Manager Version 1.2 Document Change History Version Changes 1.0 Adding verbiage for Windows Virtual Desktop, and Windows 10 build 2004 specifically 1.1 Additional updates for 2004 1.2 Final pass, updated group policy, services, tasks, and added info about Storage Sense for disk cleanup. Introduction This article is intended to provide suggestions for configurations for Windows 10, build 2004, for optimal performance in Virtualized Desktop environments, including Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) and Windows Virtual Desktop (WVD). All settings in this guide are suggested optimization settings only and are in no way requirements. The information in this guide is pertinent to Windows 10, version 2004, operating system (OS) build 19041. The guiding principles to optimize performance of Windows 10 in a virtual desktop environment are to minimize graphic redraws and “effects”, background activities that have no major benefit to the virtual desktop environment, and generally reduce running processes to the bare minimum. A secondary goal is to reduce disk space usage in the base image to the bare minimum. With virtual desktop implementations, the smallest possible base, or “gold” image size, can slightly reduce memory utilization on the host system, as well as a small reduction in overall network operations required to deliver the desktop environment to the consumer. No optimizations should reduce the user experience.
