Windows 10 Update 1511, 10586

The first big update to windows 10 "Threshold 2" (1511 = November the 11th month of 2015).

Though it was said this update will fix a lot of problems, but apart fixing some issues it- itself has some bugs and issues. will discuss them at the end of these post.

 Microsoft is making activation a little easier, restoring colored window title bars, integrating Skype, and improving the Edge browser. But they’ve also added advertisements to the Start menu, though these advertisements appear as App suggestions from Microsoft Store.

1.) Start Menu App Suggestions: Though these are not so annoying but can't predict in future will these be noisy or not. But actually this is good the app suggestion feature is good may be future the type of apps people mostly use on their device will get suggestions based on this such as If Utility or productivity is your main app collection you will get the same suggestion based on your collection or search history. These feature is good if its not annoying. Initially only 3 columns in Start menu now you can add 4th Column as well.
Go to Settings>Personalization>Start>Show more tiles. Previously 512 tiles now shows upto 2048 tiles.

2.) Disabling the windows background image: during Signing in.  Go To Personalization( Disable) in Settings to do so.

3.) Cortana Improvements: Cortana can now be used with local account as well as with microsoft account. Now if you are reading some document(pdf file) just 'right click' on selected  word and 'Ask Cortana' you want to know More about it.

4.) New icons: All lot of new icons are seen such as in Control Panel icons changed.

5.) Memory Manager: 'Compression store' is the new component added to Memory Manager. It lets OS compress items in memory when running out of memory.

6.) Edge : Microsoft Edge has improved its sync part now. Now synchronize Favourites, Reading List , Settings from one pc to another. Though its not much great as this should be present in initial Update also. But support for HTML5,CSS3,ECMASript in its engine is good.
But Tab Preview (just like Opera Browser) is good You can view the webpage without actually opening , if multiple tabs are opened then just take your mouse pointer to any tab to preview the webpage you opened in Background. 
Wirelessly cast your media from Edge to Miracast on DLNA devices "Great".

7) Storage Location: Now with this update 1511 you can change where your apps are being installed. Change your Install Location of your apps from (C:) Drive to any other as you want. you can also change storage location for your music, pictures,videos as well.

There are many other features which are added as well such as :

Tablet mode improvements, skype improvements, Nested Virtualization( for developers) , Default printer improvements ( set to most recent used one) , More Consistent Context Menus, coloured title bars , Find My Device can natively tace your lost pc/laptop via GPS and location services.

So these were some of the features and improvements added to latest update to Windows 10. But since this update 1511 is approx. 3GB so plz make sure your connection is unmetered one or an unlimited one. It took a lot of time to Download the update and Install. But that depends on Your Connection Speed.

---- So earlier in the post it was said it itself has some issues with it. Yes that's true During startup when you turned  On the pc or laptop If you see the "Action Center" You will notice Airplane mode and WiFi to be turned On simultaneously . Actually The WiFi is Turned On and it shows up and Flight mode is not But That Too shows up and If actuall turned On Flight mode  will now turn On really and shows up.

---- Also sometimes during startup notification icon shows some notification but actually there are no new notification in 'Notification Center'. May be there some bugs in this update.

---- In Synaptics Pointing Devices The Touch Pad Configuration which user wrote or saved are no longer saved these are overwritten by default configuration Don't NO why this is happening but this is annoying as Cortana shows up Every Time by mistake During Tapping 3 fingers.

So Overall you can find many improvements and added features which were necessary but there are some issues as well which makes to go back to intial build and wait for some time to fixed. Hoping these are fixed as soon as possible.
