Title says it all...
 

Solution
well, I do not have the extra menu items on either system.

Cortana appears to be broken and will not even go to the settings section on either system.


Had same problem with Cortana. In windows features had to turn on Framework 3.5. That solved the problem with Cortana.

I have been getting Blue Screens on one system simply by hitting the Start Button. The other system seems to be OK.

I will keep playing with it for a few days to see if patches become available for download. This system is just extra so I can leave it longer just for the heck of it.

Thanks for the post... my hyper-v (1 core + 2g ram) booted up just as fast so the 10 g ram you gave it doesn't appear to make a huge diff.
@anyone, have a install-boot time with 2 or more cores for compare?

Pat, if you installed any drivers in your 9926 (such as video drivers) try removing them before your upgrade and try again.

My good old Acer One is having a hard time with this update. May be I have to say good bye to my under powered little toy ....
Anyway, I could not find an ISO to down load. Is not it available yet?
