I found out why some features were missing.  When I installed Win 10 awhile ago...I uninstalled some features...in particular Mail and Calendar, so I didn't have the new Calendar feature.  Had to go to MS Store and re-download it...now I can use the calendar feature.  So far, so good.  Win 10 Pro 1909 (18363.476)


Good tip.  I had removed that as well and wanted to look at the new calendar feature (haven't got around to it yet).  Saves me a bit of time figuring out why I don't see it...  Thanks!

As far as I can figure out...Media creation tool 1909 gives you Windows 10 1903 (18362.418), because 1909 is considered to be no more than a service pak.  Once installed...Windows update gets you to 18363

Makes sense since all this update (1909) is, is a "Feature" update put out like the old "service pak" style update.  I only do fresh OS installs every 2nd or 3rd major update anyway, so didn't really think about this time around.

I still see the 131 errors today in event viewer.  The update to 1909 doesn't appear to have resolved anything there.  For me anyway...

If you haven't yet, right-click on the Clear_Event_Viewer_Logs.bat and Run as administrator..Then see what errors and warnings return after restart/a few days or so.

Anyone seen or heard of any major issues with 1909 yet?  Does it do the same behavior as previous ones of essentially installing a new copy of windows and migrating everything leaving a Windows.old folder in place?  I ask because usually I hold off until I have a bit to work on loose ends after an upgrade like generally it messes up the video driver and I also have to fully redo my monitor calibration and disable the mouse input on my X52 joystick since it's been flaky from the beginning and always makes the cursor continually drift left.  This stuff happens since it's essentially usually migrating settings/apps and reinstalling all your hardware it seems like.

No there is no Windows.old folder to get rid of. 1909 is more like a revamp of 1903.
My monitor ICC profile is still in place and the NVIDIA Studio Driver 441.12 moved to before the update still functions as it should.

Nice!  I might actually force it tonight then.  I wonder if they'll use this format going forward or go back to full installs again.  Or maybe alternate full install in spring service pack in fall?
