Hi All,


I just updated my desktop to the Windows 10 Creator's update by 
installing and running the Update Assistant. I was excited about talking 
my way through the update as I've heard from a mainstream podcast and 
from Blind Bargains. Weirdly, that didn't happen for me. I'll explained 
what happened in case others have the same experience.


I installed the Update Assistant, which took a surprisingly long time. 
While it downloaded, I browsed a week's worth of BARD releases, had 
lunch, and read email. After that, I went into my Downloads folder and 
pressed enter on the installer. Next I pressed alt+y to let the update 
make changes to my computer. Then I sat around and played leftist 
YouTube comedy videos on my phone. The updater said it could take up to 
ninety minutes, so I didn't panic when nothing happened right away, but 
after two hours, ....


I hit Windows+enter and ctrl+Windows+enter. One of them started 
Narrator. Jaws started talking as well. I tabbed around. When I found 
the Use Cortana option, I pressed enter on it, but that only made the 
log-in screen come up. I signed in, and I closed both Edge and Narrator. 
Everything was back to normal after that. This was unlike previous 
updates, where I had to answer questions and set up Wi-Fi.


Not sure why things didn't work for me as advertised, but the transition 
was straight-forward once I started speech. Just sharing with the class.


Ciao
