Windows 10 Version 1607 (Anniversary update) - change default logon domain name in the logon screen
Problem Statement:
We found that the Windows 7 and Windows 10 (1607) have different behavior of the GPO - Interactive logon: Do not display last user name - Enabled
Both machine domain is different from user machine, Windows 10 under abc.com (abc) and Windows 7 under def.com (def)
And the user is under nmo.com (nmo) domain.
After the first time logon, the Windows 7 able to "remember" the user domain (nmo) as the default logon domain for user, but Windows 10 cannot (It keeps abc - the machine domain).
Workaround solution:
We found that we need to add the following registry key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System]
"DefaultLogonDomain"="nmo"
Remark:
The problem being fixed on 1703 (15063.608) (This patch level which is I test, maybe it already fixed on early than this patch level on 1703)
What we need to do is enter your domain name (e.g. mno\username) first time login, after that your able to login without enter your domain name again. (Same behavior of Windows 7)

We seems to be need to move from Windows 10 Mobile to other platform now
I use TWO mobile phone for long time ago and also Windows Mobile / Phone since 6.0 ...
My first Windows phone is Asus P320 which is running on Windows Mobile 6.0 and upgradable to 6.1 (I also upgrade to 6.5 which is not official release) It is also my Primary Phone at that moment.
Then, I change to use Acer Liquid which is running on Android 1.6/2.1 as my Primary Phone and keep my Nokia 2730 Classic to be my Second Phone.
When Acer M310 which is running Windows Phone 7.5/7.8 release to the Market, I use it to replace my Nokia E5 as a Second Phone.
After the Windows Phone 8.0 release since it did not support all Windows Phone 7.0 user to upgrade, I replace my Acer M310 to Nokia Lumia 525.
Since the Nokia Lumia 525 cannot upgrade to Windows Mobile 10, I change my phone to Nokia Lumia 636 to upgrade to 10.0.14393.x (anniversary update)
Then, the Nokia Lumia 636 did not support to upgrade to Windows Mobile 10 - 10.0.15063.x (1703), so I change my Phone to Microsoft Lumia 640.
I should stay for few months to wait for the last upgrade (probably) 10.0.15xxx, then change to Android Phone with Microsoft Apps suite or iPhone at end of this year......(I already start to test MS Apps suite on Android now, it looks good. I love Android since I use it from 1.6 to 7.0 now, but I still wants my Second Phone have some different and also I able to continuous to enjoy some of the feature which is I love on Windows Phone like Bing Wallpaper for everyday at lockscreen, outlook apps, MSN news apps, MSN finance apps......)

Windows 10 servicing option - name change and mapping
As part of the alignment with Windows 10 and Office 365 ProPlus, Microsoft are adopting common terminology to make it as easy as possible to understand the servicing process.
These are the new terms it will be using:
· Semi-Annual Channel - It will be referring to Current Branch (CB) as "Semi-Annual Channel (Targeted)", while Current Branch for Business (CBB) will simply be referred to as "Semi-Annual Channel"
· Long-Term Servicing Channel - The Long-Term Servicing Branch (LTSB) will be referred to as Long-Term Servicing Channel (LTSC)
For additional information, see https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/deployment/update/waas-overview#servicing-channels
You can also read this blog post, with details on this change.
