As everybody knows Windows 10 Creator Update arrived since March. It seems that at the beginning many wanted to push a manual update in their devices from Microsoft website. There have been countless bad experiences, problems, issues with the update, from downloading until a complete installation. Since I like to have my system updated, I've been eager to proceed but common sense says "it's better to wait for the next upgrade in September-October", I think it's called "Windows 10 Fall Creators".
Microsoft has said "Wait until you're notified before proceed" and I got it already but still I see many bugs around. My device is my main work equipment and I must be operative far away from problems.
I'd like to hear expert opinions and experiences about this update in Spectre x360 family.
Thanks in advance

Hi @pstrusi
Welcome back to the HP Support forum. Thank you for posting !
Do you run Windows 10 Home edition or Pro edition ?
Can you click on Start , type winver , start the app and post all the information ?
With W10 Pro edition you can run your PC on the >Current branch for Business< and therefore delay the update for 4-12 months. Yes, there have been several issues with the initial release of Creators Update but from what I heard and read on the Internet most should be fixed now. In my personal opinion, you should wait as much as possible and don't rush to be among the first to get the update, especially if you have this ability with Pro.

I've received the new Windows 10 Creator through the very same Windows Update function, ( I didn't want to force the update manually ); so I decided to proceed. The update has been a success, I didn't find any issue at all, just to let you know that W10 creator update seems ok after their recent versions which correct previous problems.
