Live 11.1 is more stable than 11.0?

Until now I haven't updated because I'm always afraid that newer releases can be less stable than the one in use.
Now I'm considering to update my 11.0 to, at least 11.1 or even 11.1.5: do you mind sharing your experience, please?
Thanks.

Can't remember how stable 11.0 was, but 11.1 has been fine. I might've had one or two crashes. If that can be considered fine. Nothing out of the normal.

No problem with Live 11.1.5 here

With minor releases, I would generally think the opposite is true as each minor release usually fixes a number of bugs past the initial major release.
I typically update Ableton as soon as they introduce a new minor version.
I can't recall many times where a minor release created a new bug.
Other than a few VST based crashes, 11 in general has been stable.

All I can really say is this: I had live 11.0 or 11.0.2 or something up and running without issues. Everything was fine. Then, like an IDIOT I decided to uninstall Live 10. This broke things. Resetting, deleting preferences, options.txt, library.cfg etc... didn't help. Reinstalling 10 didn't help.
So I fully uninstalled everything. Cleaned registries. Installed 11.0 Suite - hang on launch. Updated to 11.1.6. - hang on launch. Total uninstall. Install Live 10 - works fine. Install 11.0 and got hang or 'not responding' on launch. Update to 11.1.6 and hang / 'not responding' on launch.
win 10, i7-8700k 64GB DDR4, SSD's etc... not a hardware issue.
Anybody else have this or similar experience?

Yeah, I'm in the beta test group, so I installed 11.2b.12 - it opened just fine. I scanned all vst2 and vst3 no problem. Indexer even completed its work. Then, of all things, I tried to load an instance of stock delay.
Crash. Tried to launch again, infinite hang on the splash screen. FML.
I am going to do a clean install of win10. Which of course means moving personal files, removing authorization from various things, probably overlooking
some things or forgetting about some license that I can't transfer... and then there's the re-installations. This is nothing I'm looking forward to.
