Just finished the update:

It required a repair of Avast on my 64 bit system.
The repair took care of the problem with Avast not starting after the update.

For me, not a problem with Avast.
The best things in life are free.

Anniversary update.
That's old news. :) It should arrive for those that are using Windows 10 at the beginning of July, 2016. :)

WARNING

According to someone on MalwareTips the newest stable Build of Windows 10 (10586.446) has a bug that it defragments SSD Drives during automatic maintenance!!!

http://prntscr.com/bia1ey

But it looks like its not happening on all PCs as well, no idea what this could be.

The same way you transfer any file from one folder to another.
Select what you want transferred and paste it into the Pictures folder.
Windows 10 isn't any different than the prior OS.

@bob3160,

I hooked up my newest computer running win 10 and all my pictures are on this one.  I've never transferred any files.
