    I have a Microsoft Surface Pro X. After updating windows (Windows 10 version 1909 01) for ARM based Surface Pro X on 28th, January 2020, I start to experience a system failure (blue screen) frequently (almost once in 2 days).

    I have deployed to 16 computers and 2 of them lost connectivity and to One Drive and could not re-connect. We had to uninstall and re-install the One Drive client.

    i need this , the search sucks so bad in my windows 10 .. i can’t click the box most of the time its like its grayed out. sometimes it works but only after a reboot which is inconvenient to say the least. i use a win8.1 box on the same desk for all my searching , its annoying. i’ll update with results ha.
