Oh no! Which version are you running? I haven't seen this behavior yet and hope I never do.

I recently migrated all the machines at home to Linux because I refuse to use Win10.

Mark TwainI'm running Win10 Home but other than that it's the same as yours: 1803 Build 17134.523 And if I use WIN+L to lock the screen I just get a "pretty picture" - I get no ads. Have you changed anything recently?

For email and web home users, it is. For basic office users, it is. For specialist office work, CAD CAM, what we do with VS, it isnt.

Not that I know of. I get the pretty pictures as well, but some times (not all the time) there are 2-3 links on top of the pretty picture to what appears to be commercial and/or gaming sites. :mad: Started December 21st for me...

Mark TwainThanks, I'm interested and I'll check mine when I get home. We are on an older Enterprise 1709 version at work. As I looked at the version you posted and then looked up win10 versions (Windows 10 version history - Wikipedia[^]) I was struck by the fact that it was so much easier in the past to determine/differentiate which version of windows I had installed. Windows XP SP3, etc. Now, I've seen these new versions 100 times and I still don't remember anything about which version is installed on my pc at home. It's really stupid. :sigh:

No way. When I installed Linux I had to find crazy command lines just to get network drivers to work. Then other command lines to enable basic OS features. You're telling me that regular home and office users want to deal with that? No way.

Did you try Ubuntu? It works right out of the box. In fact it is very stable, reliable and quick.

Ya, but it didn't work for me. So many command lines just to get it up and running.
