Just installed these, myself (minus the insider update). Between this week's patches and the firmware update, I'll be waiting to see if I need to run another SFC & DISM to keep things stable.

Anyone seeing any touchpad related concerns with this update? Three finger swipe up and down is a lot less responsive for me now. Only registers about 75% of the time. Thanks!

which button is the "surface button"?...
I'm curious about that, too considering neither the SB or the SP4 have a hardware windows button, but the description for that particular driver update relates to the device usability in tablet mode:

"Microsoft driver update for Surface Button. Surface Button 1.1.662.0 improves device usability while the device is in tablet mode." -- per the documentation

Just guessing, but:

Microsoft calls the tiles at the bottom of the Action Center "buttons" in their documentation. Since the issue here involves operational improvements when Tablet Mode is selected, I suspect that the Surface Button driver is just the code that manages what happens when you touch or click the Tablet Mode button (or tile).

My keyboard and touchpad become unresponsive periodically, after waking up from hibernation. Also my touchpad periodically becomes slow to react to first touch. Never had these problems before this recent update. I don't regularly use multi-touch gestures, besides vertical scrolling.
