I have to re-install the...

    It costs how much?!? Say that again, I must have misheard you.....

    So where that SQ1 close to high-performance? In passmark test it score only 80% of the 7300U and even you can argue that is not ARM-opt program still it runs only close to 8250U with compatibility issue. I'll take LG Gram 14 with touchscreen if I want light weight, long battery life and...

    It costs how much?!? Say that again, I must have misheard you.....

    But....In real world test not the SD835/850/SQ1 devices had crazy battery life compared to the best x86 device like LG gram in similar price range. Also, with cross-platform apps, big battery phone and good data plan that everyone have and fast response time from sleep thanks to SSD - I don't...

    I just got my problem solved by download the 1909 ESD and convert to ISO, proceed an upgrade install over my system with all my settings and apps remained.

    Windows 10 April 2018 Update common problems and fixes

    I got two of my laptops (New Surface pro/Dell M6700) updated to 1809. I'm lucky to avoid data lost issue but both of my laptops suffer from dead cortana (can't hear, can't speak, click the mic icon not even showing the cortana circle->smile animation) and heavy battery drain. My New Surface pro...

    Really? every gen of Surface pro faced different quality/design issues and only till the 5th gen they seems to have sort most of it out. I don't rekon it having better build quality than others so the new product line for sure not giving the confidence.

    Well I like the idea of a smaller tablet, easier to handle and still keep the productivity like a real PC. It just the price and SPEC won't convince me... I can get a china tablet for 75% of the price with similar CPU, 4/6 GB of RAM, 128 GB storage(even with mSATA/M2 SSD slot for upgrade) and...
