Sorry parkdale, not totally sure what you are requesting ?

The Win 10 anomaly I'am refering to is fully described in detail on the MS community forum link thread I provided in a previous post.
Being effected or not was always a bit of a lottery, the i5 desktop PC was not previously effected until installing 2004 upgrade, my main Ryzen-5 desktop PC was always effected but the "work around" did cure.

Won't be installing 2004 on any of my other PC's in the mean time.

They also broke night light coming on with sunset after a reboot on my 2004.

That's a typically rambling forum topic of 14 pages. Not knowing the forum I can't tell whose posts are informative, whose are speculation etc.

Give us the TLDR!

OK, for anyone who does not wish to/does not have the time to read the full "rambling topic post":
See page 5 from the link provided earlier, entry under galileo1564 dated 19/02/19, this sums up the fix suggested.
Have attached a txt file of this post, formatting very basic, better to look at original post.

I had the issue described on my Ryzen-5 desktop PC and the suggested work around cured.
Some reported that it was finally addressed quite recently by MS, see later posts in the thread, can't rule on this as I just left the work around running in the background anyway.

As stated earlier, never had an issue with my i5, dual Win/Linux desktop PC until updating to 2004, applied the "work around" issue still the same.

What is the use a post just giving a fix if you don't know what the issue/problem was to begin with?

Am I missing something here ?

Post 12 in this thread relates:
Quote
Just noted one anomaly which I can only assume is associated with the feature update.
Local network devices not displaying on Win explorer.
This known anomaly goes back a very long time since v.1809 with MS failing to produce a solution, ironically until very recently, there is a work around for the issue which I have installed on my main PC, will have to look the details out again.

The title of the referenced post from the MS community forum reads:

Windows 10, Version 1809. Network does not show computers

How can I post a screenshot of a network device that's doesn't display on Windows explorer, that's the problem, it's not displaying ?

If you know the name of the missing devices and type \\devicename in to the address bar does it find the device and display the shared resources?

Yes indeed, has always been the case, then appears on the Win explorer network tree, remains there while explorer is open and can be accessed normally.
On next opening of Win explorer have to go through the same process again to restore missing devices to the network tree.
Annoying !

OK. Annoying, but so really, really simple circumvent. Just create a shortcut to \\devicename and put it on the start menu, task bar, desktop or somewhere convenient - when you open the shortcut it opens Windows Explorer with the device shown and selected under Network.

Now please explain why something so utterly trivial is worth making such a song and dance about, or is a reason to delay applying new versions of Windows 10.

As a matter of interest, have you seen the suggestion of using a shortcut anywhere else? I've been seeing this behaviour for months and it never bothered me as I could just enter the name. When you confirmed this was your issue I thought is there a simple way to get round it and as entering the name in the address bar works I thought a shortcut was worth a try - and it worked a treat.

I'm not seeing this on my 2004 as you can see my 3 computers and PVR are all showing up.
