Every company has their naming-conventions, however for most people it would have been easier if Version 1511 had been replaced with Version 1512 for the next major update after the problematic start the first accumulative update for Version 1511 had. Hopefully these updates for 1511 with the latest being on Jan. 12 have resolved the issues resulting in pulling the first 1511 update. This is also dated, but does show some early update history for 1511. At this point, here's my list of Windows 10 version 1511 patches: Version 1511 (OS Build 10586), released Nov. 12, is the first version 1511 -- the one that raised the old RTM build 10240 version of Win10 to the November Update/Threshold 2 level. Cumulative Update 1, KB 3105211, brings the build number up to 10586.3 Cumulative Update 2, KB 3118754, Nov. 18, goes to build 10586.11 Cumulative Update 3, KB 3120677, Nov. 24, sets build 10586.14 Cumulative Update 4, KB 3116908, Dec. 2, runs up to build 10586.17 Then the one-off patches, which aren't advertised as cumulative: KB 3116278, Nov. 18, "Out-of-box-experience update" KB 3116903, also Nov. 18, "Compatibility update for upgrading to Windows 10" KB 3103688, Nov. 10, patch for Flash Player in IE 11 and Edge KB 3106246, Nov. 11, Update for DVD player KB 3122947, Dec. 5, the odd update explained in this article, which may or may not duplicate the patches in KB 3116908 infoworld.com * * *

It appears that I picked an inauspicious day to update my desktop computer to Win10. I updated last night. It took forever, possibly because I was using the computer while it was downloading. In any case, FF doesn't stream live videos nearly as well as it did using Win7, although NetFlix seems to be fine. Chrome, however, streams live videos just fine, so it must be something in FF. I am using the latest version of it, but maybe they still haven't optimized it for Win10?
