anyone know how long Windows 10 allows you to use older GPU drivers before auto-updating?...
If you boot into safemode and run Display Driver uninstaller from there, it will disable the driver updates permanently. (That is what I do.) However, you will not want to wait to long before manually updating because the latest updates has WDDM 2.2, I believe.
that program disables driver updates in Windows 10?...are you 100% sure?...looks like a regular driver removal program
Does anyone here run Win 10 Enterprise?
AFAIK, Creator's Update hasn't been rolled out yet (I still haven't gotten it), any idea when/where?
I think it is "install on your own" status right now. It isn't being pushed out through regular updates.
I installed win10 home this weekend and it installed the creators update as an update after windows was installed and up.. Maybe it did that due to the fresh install.
I'd really like to know where people are getting Enterprise from, and don't give us the line that you got it via work channels....
I was just wondering if the CU has yet to be released for Win 10 Enterprise, or if the CU is being distributed on channels I am not aware of. At least CU loaded win 10 Home and Pro ISOs are available from MS already.
I noticed that today. I had to do a reinstall of Windows 10 on a machine and it actually asked me during the install if I wanted to install 1703. It wasn't required (I skipped it) and it left the update tool on the desktop.

his permission doesn't mean shit when it comes to license agreements.and I am using the OS with his permission only
The family member knows this very well and he is completely authorised to use it as such. He heads a research group that uses a lot of computer equipment on and off campus. I in fact had to install the OS on HIS computer as well, and I am using the OS with his permission only.
no there are rules about that too. it has to be purchased with a oem hdd/ssd or a mobo and its not transferable to other hardware. something like that, its been a while wince I used oem.^ I am also guilty as charged for that too >.<;
Thanks.
Also, on that note, I take it that it is equally illegitimate to buy an OEM Win 10 key for personally built computers?
yeah that seems shaddy and youre not actually getting the legit sticker that should come with it. who knows where they came from too. those keys may work now but ms could deactivate them.(I am thinking something is dodgey, but I have no proof and the seller has sold many keys with none complaining they were fake).
Actually, while I am here, what's the limitation on the box version's transferrable licence? Is it only 1 machine at a time?
Well there's someone in the FS/FT subforum here that sells Windows 7 licenses pretty cheap, you can get some of those if needed, then use the accessibility upgrade for Windows 10 (which is still free and capable of being used but that's not going to last much longer) and lock in the retail Windows 10 license, that's one potential solution on non-OEM hardware - I wouldn't even touch OEM licenses anymore for any reason at all personally, especially considering how difficult it can be to do an activated re-installation if needed.
If you mean a retail license then yes, it can only be on one machine at a time.
And it cannot be resold to install on another users machine.
If it's a full retail license, not from an upgrade, I believe the original buyer can resell it.
The first licenced user can, I can assure you that the people selling licence keys on the [H] forums are not the first licenced users.
That would mean that you can grab a retail licence off an old PC and install it onto a new PC to sell to a customer and make a profit of ~$150.00 on the Windows licence, you cannot do this and if MS find out you're in a world of hurt - And they do find out.
4. Transfer. The provisions of this section do not apply if you acquired the software as a consumer in Germany or in any of the countries listed on this site (aka.ms/transfer), in which case any transfer of the software to a third party, and the right to use it, must comply with applicable law.
a. Software preinstalled on device. If you acquired the software preinstalled on a device (and also if you upgraded from software preinstalled on a device), you may transfer the license to use the software directly to another user, only with the licensed device. The transfer must include the software and, if provided with the device, an authentic Windows label including the product key. Before any permitted transfer, the other party must agree that this agreement applies to the transfer and use of the software.
b. Stand-alone software. If you acquired the software as stand-alone software (and also if you upgraded from software you acquired as stand-alone software), you may transfer the software to another device that belongs to you. You may also transfer the software to a device owned by someone else if (i) you are the first licensed user of the software and (ii) the new user agrees to the terms of this agreement. You may use the backup copy we allow you to make or the media that the software came on to transfer the software. Every time you transfer the software to a new device, you must remove the software from the prior device. You may not transfer the software to share licenses between devices.
