KB4077528 and KB4077525 for Windows 10 released
Microsoft released two cumulative updates for Windows 10 version 1607 and Windows 10 version 1703 yesterday under KB4077528 and KB4077525.
About 15% of all Windows 10 devices don't run the latest version, the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update, according to AdDuplex. While the Fall Creators Update should be available to all customers -- minus the ones that have incompatible hardware -- some admins and customers prefer not to install it yet or cannot install it because they run into issues doing so.
One of my machines is still on Windows 10 version 1703 because the update to version 1709 throws a BlueScreen error during the update process which I cannot get resolved on my end.
On to the February 22, 2018 released patches for Windows 10

Now You: Have you installed these updates? What's your experience?
KB4077525 pulled for Windows 2016 server.
Worked but took up to 10 hours to install causing people to force reboot
They force people to upgrade from Windows 7 and 8.1. Now some of these devices can’t run the latest version…. Microsoft has become a shithole on Earth !
My legit 1709 was constantly rebooting at odd times, always when I wasn’t there to see it, and desktop icons constantly moving and game bar giving me ridiculous FPS issues in some games and all this because I foolishly upgraded from 1706 that I was happy with.
So I went to r/piracy and am running a “trial” version of Enterprise 1607. Fixed all my issues.
Maybe Windows is running Denuvo on the background, need to get the pirated version to play smoothly
@IFK,
I may be wrong. But check your video driver on 1709. When I was having issues on the AMD machine, MS had substituted their VD for the NVIDIA one I was using.
Just a thought.
I am at 1709 on my end. The Intel machine went smoothly. The AMD machine had an issue was rolled back using a full disk backup. It’s now at 1709.
SM3 cryptographic hash algorithm support issue on TMP devices.
TPM devices?
Trusted Platform Module. It’s a hardware feature used for full disk encryption, Microsoft’s BitLocker uses it by default. It’s a “convenience first” way of FDE and not the most secure one, imo. It’s actually completely useless, it only helps you if someone steals your HDD but leaves you your laptop for instance, lol.
“It’s actually completely useless, it only helps you if someone steals your HDD but leaves you your laptop for instance, lol.”
No, it’s not, wether the thief has your laptop or only its HDD changes nothing to the fact that Bitlocker’s encrypted disk will not magically unlock … Even if the thief has the laptop, the disk won’t be unencrypted: TPM will just act as a “key” to unlock disk and boot the OS on the encrypted disk without the hassle of typing a password to unlock it.
