Get Windows 10 Creative update early

• Edge 15: Faster, smoother, more web standards, less buggy, more battery efficient. Some new icons. Ebook reading. Set tabs aside. Speed Dial like Home Page instead of simply Most Recent. You can also preview the tab now all the time instead of just hovering the cursor over it.
• You can hide the App List in Start
• Your PC can autolock if your phone, connected to your PC/laptop via bluetooth, is away for more than 10 seconds for more than 3 meters.
• Settings rearanged a bit
• Night Light for blue light reduction
• UUP for faster OS updates and installations
• Cortana knows a few new tricks
• New app/games installations from the Store now now have the progress bar in Action Center
• New UWP Windows Defender app
• Support for Mixed Reality (Hololens functionality) when headsets will become available
• New Out of Box Experience when you first install Creators Update or when you update from Anniversary Update. Clean install will use Cortana and voice control.
• Slim scroll bar until you hover over it
• Drastically improved HiDPi scaling option for applications that are not HiDPi aware
• Picture in Picture API for UWP apps, found in Skype and Movies and TV currently
• Game Mode for improved framerates (minimum fps on really low powered PCs/laptops mostly though)
• Native, integrated stream functionality for gaming using Beam
• On laptops/ultrabooks, custom Precision touchpad gestures
• Custom color for OS personalization
• Themes can now downloaded from the Store that change background, window color, sounds and mouse cursor
• Reset options for apps from the Windows Store, in case they go rogue
• Links opened in Edge can now start apps where possible, like opening Windows Central in Edge will prompt the Windows Central app to open the link
• You can delay OS updates for up to 35 days, at least on the Pro version AFAIK
 
And all your custom settings will be reset again to suit Microsoft's defaults. ;)

#1. This is opening maddness, I don't like to be annoying all the time.

#2. Microsoft never gives up.... :(

Running it since this morning. Best feature is it no longer requires you to open a separate form to connect VPN
 
Or by Windows Update Assistant. Download from Ms site, works just as well.

Erm, that was what I linked to ;)

On a side note, VM testing fine without problems, and so does my Media PC stick. Guess its time to do the real update on Gaming PC.

Edit: Oh crap, forgot I have Windows 10 N, so need to wait for Media Feature pack for 1703, because Android force me to install Windows Media Player and its bloat, just so I can copy files to my phone.
