Win10 version 2004
Anyone using this win10 version: "2004" on their laptop? Win10 forced this feature edition on me today and I immediately had problems. Whenever the laptop enters sleep it either shuts down completely or "hangs" and requires the power button to be held down and a reboot.
Conversely if you ask for a shutdown it doesn't complete the process. I've reverted back to "1909" for now and everything works fine. The laptop is a Lenovo 330S, a couple of years old. |

Stick the latest iteration, 20H on there. I have it on all my machines including this old Linx tablet and it works fine.

I must say I’m at a loss as to why folks have so many problems. On the whole I’ve found W10 to be fine, one or two bits I’m not so keen on but no real tech or programming issues in all the time I’ve used it.

It's probably hardware-specific, my wife used to have an HP which suffered from it and needed a three finger button combination to get it to shut down completely. Her new Lenovo is fine. I try not to use Windows myself, so all I have is second-hand frustration. |

Wow, my laptop only lasts for 3 years and yours is a 2004 model.

Re: Win10 version 2004
I'v run a mix of my Games PC and 4 laptops (2 dell, 2 HP) on different builds/Insider program for the past couple of years without any issues whatsoever on or off network, it really does look like particular hardware builds from a manufacturer are prone to issues where many others suffer no issues at all.
I have read horror stories on the boards and tried to replicate settings on my hardware but to no avail, so it's (imho) just down to bad luck. |

I have 2 laptops and a desktop running Win10. The desktop is fairly old but has an SSD and an early gen dual core CPU, it has the latest "feature edition" Win10 and shuts down/sleeps no problem. I can't remember if it's 2004 or 20H2. My Toshiba Satellite laptop is a veteran, circa 2010, originally on Win7, has run ubuntu for a while (and android briefly) now on Win10 1909 on SSD - works great. My Lenovo 330S is the newest (2 or 3 years), it was a mistake and I don't like it. It's running an AMD Ryzen 5 and works well on Win10 1909 but doesn't like 2004 - suffers from shutdown and sleep problems. Apparently 2004 and 20H2 share the same core - windows update is still trying to seduce me back with 20H2 but I'm reluctant after the last debacle. I've been searching for a fix for the sleep/shutdown issue but there doesn't seem to be a consensus - fast startup and obsolete drivers are the usual quoted suspects. |
Re: Win10 version 2004
It might be worth updating. You can always do a system save and roll back if it doesn't work out.
I'm on a Lenovo 500s with an I5 processor. It updated to 20H2 last weekend, which it took some time. I'm not having any problems so far. The laptop always takes a minute or so before it properly shuts down but it's always been like that. |
