    Windows continues to disappoint. Of all bugs the night light is stuck. It's disabled I attempted to delete it but nothing seems to work. So I guess I'm just stuck with a dumb yellow screen.

    I get the same picture as above BUT instead of the blue button saying "INSTALL" it says "LAUNCH". When I click on Launch, nothing happens...

    The option to disable Alt+tab for Edge tabs doesn't work. Its buggy. Even if I use it to show open windows only, Edge tabs will keep on appearing.
