Steve, normally I'd do a clean system install. You may need to use a
utility to find the actual product installation number but I know MS is
making this harder to do so I can't say which utility to use.
Once you get the base install and some updates downloaded, get all your
necessary software loade
Working further with my Win10 update problem, I put a bare drive on the
system and installed 1709 and it went perfectly (except for the constant
babbling of Cortana). So my original boot drive will have to be redone.
Which is the best way to do that? I could do a Win10 reset, that wipes the
apps
