From my point of view, I notice only 2 improvements:
1) the little blue ring icon (indicating background activity in progress) no longer is continually running beside the pointer when I open any app or browser (it had been)
2) Cortana no longer works - Yay!

I'm glad to see that this update has finally solved several problems, including the black screen issue that many users were reporting on forums.
Microsoft deserves kudos for this one.

Having trouble installing this Win 10 update. It appeared to have downloaded but then an error message saying it couldn't be installed because other updates were being installed. The message said to reboot to solve the problem.
After rebooting there was a new message saying the Win 10 update could be installed because the PC was turned off. Told it to check for updates and it's just checking endlessly...
The update history says the last updates were installed on 29-Aug. So none of the updates offered today (Win 10, WD and Flash) got installed.
GRRRR...!
