Where is the hidden GA, if not dude Windows 10 has no angels.

Sorry to say, as a college student I don't have enough money for games anymore. But it might not be some kind of angel but it has wings when it shows what happens
EDIT: I don't think its an update for windows in particular as when I did spend my time googling it, I found only literally one link that involved my issue.

Not everything shows up there, so another place to check is the event viewer. Just click start and begin typing "event viewer" and click it when it shows up. Look in the application log for the error.
As others have said, I have never seen an "angel looking animation on the right side" in Windows 10, so if you fail to find anything in the two places I mentioned above, it's not a Windows error.

I honestly don't know what to call the animation (and I don't even know why I have it) but if I remember correctly, ive been having it since Windows 8.1 and its more of a blue shaped icon with wings. I think it might actually be a windows update that isn't connecting to the internet for some reason and so I think I successfully turned off the notification.

Yes you can (but I tried to mess with some of this earlier, better reinstalled OS was easiest solution, yes I'm lazy)

There will be a program running called "updater.exe" and that's crashing. Could be literally any program like Java, Acrobat, Chrome or anything that self-updates.
Open the Event Logs and have a look, it should record the path of the executable that's crashing. You can decide from there to either manually update it, uninstall the program, or just disable update functionality.

I have a really strong feeling that its actually a windows update that seems to be failing as I looked into the event logs and noticed a lot of windows update news that says it failed to connect in the last hour. I think I made it so that it wont notify me anymore about it so hopefully its true. Thanks for the help

I'm having lots of issues lately with Windows 10. Somehow the update version was working way better than clean install.
These new updates are a problem to me because you don't have much control about what is being updated.
There's no control anymore and that's a big problem to notebook users...
I often get myself doing rollbacks because some drivers doesn't work properly... I had update problems before anniversary also.
I did have a problem with windows update once. It was not installing new updates and the error code was leading me to Windows 7 solutions on internet (I was feeling that I was the first one who had this problem on internet using windows 10).
To solve the windows update problem, I had to reinstall windows. No workaround on internet fixed my problem.
I recognize this windows as a better windows (quickier and stuff) but it has lots of bugs, LOTS.
Hope you can solve your problem without have to reinstall windows. edit: I'm glad you did. :D

i agree that lack of control is extremely annoying, but i do understand why they did it that way to.
are you sure your motherboard is compatible with win10? that maybe why the drivers are causing issues, and making it look buggy? i personally haven't noticed any bugs in win10 at all, just annoys me there is less privacy and far less control in update regards and a few other places as well. ofc my machine came with win10 license and there was not updating to win10, just the normal & anniversary updates, so it would be pretty compatible.

it is compatible. I bought my dell like two years ago with a shitty windows 8.
I updated and everything went pretty fine till I decided to do a clean install due update problems.
I did solve the update problems, but I got many others that I shouldn't have.
well... til they got such simple things fixed (like start menu crash or random freezes that LOTS of users are reporting lately), windows 10 is nothing but a failure to me.

ahh yeah ok, almost all if not all the win8 machines should. if it were win7 licensed originally then chances would not of been so high. but yeah that should be perfectly compatible. thats the windows relationship though, its always win/lose & love/hate. im all the above of those towards this version, its great in some aspects, and horrible in others. =)
glad to see you solved all your hardware/driver/update issues with it though :D

Hey guys so I have a Windows 10 laptop and anyone who has windows 10 knows that whenever something crashes it will show up as a sort of angel looking animation on the right side. Now this has been coming up a lot recently however it always seems to say updater has crashed. It isn't specifying what application and I cant right click the angel looking thing to find out more about it. Does anyone else have this issue? Does anyone know anyway I can look further into this when the icon appears?
