anyway i encountered the following problems listed below

https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Window...-on-Windows-10-Build-9926/td-p/1870387/page/2

From a suggestion on Microsoft TechNet forum, it was suggested I check out the "Sensor Monitoring Service" in 'Services.' This service was present & running. For some reason, it was also set to Manual. I stopped the service, changed to Automatic, and restarted the service, and voila, screen rotation works for the first time - for me - on Windows 10.

another problem which is this about the tablet shutting down after waking it up from sleep, displaying a blank screen with backlight and is maybe related to solving auto rotation problem too ...

Windows 10 Nov update; stuck at black screen.

In summary;
I have installed Windows 10 Nov update (Buld 10586 / Threshold 2) to Dell Inspiron 11 3147 a few days ago. It was working fine except Cygwin. And then it stuck at black screen after Dell logo before login screen at start up. To make it work again, I had to disable "Windows Driver Foundation - User-mode driver Framework" service.
The service sounds like important/necessary service, and so hopefully Microsoft fix it soon...

[Edit 22/Nov]
I was wondering why it was working fine a few days after update. And I found Windows Update "Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1511 for x64-based Systems (KB3118754)" caused the problem. If KB3118754 is uninstalled, it works fine with the service enabled.
[/Edit]

[Edit 23/Nov]
It happened again. Disable the service seems to be better workaround.

[Edit 25/Nov]
As in a comment, it needs just touch a screen, then Windows continues booting.
[/Edit]

Long story;
Soon after installed Windows 10 Nov update, I noticed that Cygwin stopped working on my Dell Inspiron 11 3147. But Windows was working fine other than that for a few days. When I got a time to investigate Cygwin problem, I rebooted the pc and it stuck at black screen before login screen. It won't go any further.

Get into safe mode
When it stuck at black screen, there was no mouse cursor. I pressed Windows+p to see external display settings, but nothing happened. I actually connected an external display but it only showed black screen too. And so I had to force shutdown it by pressing power button until LED turned on and then off again.
Because it won't boot into Windows, it needs an install media to boot into Safe mode. But I accidentally found the following way.

Press F12 to get into Boot options and launch Diagnostics.

Let it run a while just in case, but you can cancel it memory test.

Exit Diagnostics. (Then it automatically reboots.)

Somehow Windows detects a boot problem and you can get into advanced start-up screen.

Disable service
It seemed to be working okay in safe mode. So I guessed the problem was caused by a software. To find a cause, run msconfig.exe, open Services tab and enable services little by little. And finally I found that "Windows Driver Foundation - User-mode driver Framework" service caused the problem.

Clean install
It could be a problem of software combination/conflict and so I clean installed Windows 10 Nov update to confirm it. It installed without a problem, and worked fine for a while but the same problem happened after a few reboot. I did not install any additional software but applied Windows Updates.

So far so good
With the service disabled, I installed my everyday software (anti-virus, Cygwin, Chrome, VLC, Xkeymacs, etc.) and all work fine so far.

been working mine all morning here in the uk, no issues with rotation, everything 100%

there is a "flaw" previously identified on waking device up with single power button click, device prompts you to shutdown ... don't, and at next opportunity shutdown from the windows start menu, this should clear it

now, what additional functionality/fixes was this update supposed to provide, as my device had been extremely stable on W10 for the weeks prior until the failed update (due to sd card) and I cant see any additional features ?
