Has anyone *not* gotten the 1809 update yet?

I don't know why when it did it through the Update process it worked, but didn't work when I tried it through manual update process? I would surmise that they fixed something that they haven't made a lot of noise about between the time you downloaded th;e manual update and when they sent you the update. Just be glad it updated. I never did get 1803 to load, either from Microsoft or if I did it myself. I finally just went ahead and manually loaded 1809, since Microsoft wouldn't give it to me until I updated to 1803.

I don't know why when it did it through the Update process it worked, but didn't work when I tried it through manual update process? The Windows Update version "stages" drivers in advance, if they're missing. The DVD one doesn't. It backfills later with driver downloads if it feels the need. For example, the installation might want to upgrade the video card driver, to the latest flavor of WDDM. If you have an unsupported video card, you might want to try the DVD. The approach of the two is "mostly similar", but there are some tiny differences. The Windows Update one looks at the versions of stuff, and "downloads a thousand tiny packages". And that adds up to 4GB of stuff. Whereas the DVD packs what it thinks you need, into the ISO. Would the software lineups be identical ? Who really knows. You would hope both would install 17763.1, and the WU one should not be "racing ahead" when it does the OS Upgrade. To get to .500 or whatever, should be another 500MB download. Paul |

It's because you are so stupid that you don't want to accept the fact that you are completely idiot and why you are allowed to sit in front of a computer is beyond anybody's wild imagination. We have told you may times that you are an idiot and posting here and writing something like what is quoted only confirms this point. Now go and blow yourself up so that you can reach allah before any infidels on this newsgroup!!. that is what all stupid black bearded nutters do. For them allah is everything. -- With over 950 million devices now running Windows 10, customer satisfaction is higher than any previous version of windows. |

My Win10s are still on 1803. As I see it, they work reliably and as a result I also can work. If a newer version such as 1904 brings something to the table that I can't do without, I'd get a computer known to be compatible with that version. But, I don't see anything like that in 1809, so... I find it to be more stable. More stable than what? Than 1803, what else, hot shot? Given the exponentially wide range of hardware, firmware and system configurations I doubt that there is a general stability factor between any one Win10 version and all of them. It's more stable on my machine. But like the dip**** said in another post, that "more stable could be my imagination". |
