Last night I've updated my Windows 10. That was big update called "Creators Update". I don't know details what was changed (I noticed only new privacy settings and mail client) but one thing was significant for me as a linux user. When I wanted to switch to my openSUSE it opened rescue mode. It happend after I entered password to my encrypted home partition. My first thought: update modified my partition! Fortunately it was possible to open and mount it using cryptsetup. I checked also /etc/crypttable and I realized what is the root cause of my problems.
In my config I found /dev/sda7 but my current encrypted partition number is 6! Fast research and I found empty space on my disk between two partitions. Possibly the update removed one of partitions existing before (created during Windows 10 installation) and now all my linux partitions have decreased numbers.
I created new partition in the empty space. Reboot. Linux works.

Windows 10
For many years my main operating system is Linux (currently openSUSE) but I also have installed Windows because sometimes I have to run or develop some native Windows apps. Some time ago I updated my Windows 8 to newer version - Windows 10.
Update was finished without any problems and after 3-4 hours I saw my new desktop. I'm rather a user who keeps opened a lot of windows simultanusely and for me the most important new feature is the support of multiple desktops:
I was using this in my Gnome desktop for a long time and one thing what is missing for me in the Windows implementation is a possibility to move window between desktops using a shortcut (or I missed this in the shortcut list). Nevertheless, the work on Windows isn't as much painful for me finally.
I also noticed one regression in sense of usability. Developers changed power management popup (shown after click on the battery tray icon) and now it is less functional:
I often switch between balanced and high performance modes, but now I can turn on/off only power-saving mode. To run high performance mode I have to click few times more (open power settings). This is the reason why I created shortcut on my desktop switching to the high performance mode:
Where GUID is one from the list:
