1460289	2019-05-01 05:56:00	Hi. Just a quick question re: W10 version 1903. Has it been released yet as a stable upgrade via Windows Updates or as a downloadable ISO? Thanks in advance Garry	kioti (17360)
1460290	2019-05-01 06:39:00	"Officially" it hasn't been released to the public yet, this is because there are a couple of minor bugs they are sorting out, the bugs relate to "Some" Attached USB drives or SD Card Readers. If you do try to update an affected PC, you'll get the message 9577 On saying that many people have upgraded even with PC that are meant to be a problem with no problems at all. On saying that (again) , there's is no "Official Public Release" ISO either. ( key words in bold) BUT there is a work around, all the PC's here have been upgraded and ALL are VERY stable. 9578 You can download the actual Files and make the ISO yourself ( from Microsoft Severs) Via an unoffical ( Fully legal) Program / Script.	wainuitech (129)

If I manage to DL the files, what I will do is create a W10 1809 onto another Drive ( probably the 500GB Samsung Evo 860 SSD that I have in the computer and which has only had 1% space used so I will format it clean) and then try the 1903 upgrade to that, see how it goes. Cheers garry edit: What I could do is once the Evo 860 is formatted clean, I could instal a Aomei Full disk backup that I have of the W10 1809 I have installed on the Corsair Force MP300 SSD M.2 C Drive then upgrade that to the unofficial v1903.	kioti (17360)
1460292	2019-05-01 21:59:00	If you want the actual files, use UUP Dump, this collects them from Microsoft. https://uupdump.ml Simply select the correct version either X86 or X64, Marked in Yellow: 9579 then click on the blue buttons next next and Download using aria2 and Convert, that will download a small zipped file, extract the contents to a folder ( DONT try to run from the zipped file it wont work) then double click the script aria2_download_windows.cmd It will do the rest, download all the parts 3. ? GB and create a ISO in the same folder. (Takes a while depending on internet speed and PC power)	wainuitech (129)
1460293	2019-05-01 22:12:00	I have to ask. Why are you wanting to download a build that even Microsoft have deemed not ready for public use ? Have we learnt nothing from the past, serious bugs inflicted on those too damn eager to upgrade to builds that wernt 100% proven ? Unless you're doing that for testing or evaluation .....	1101 (13337)

Have we learnt nothing from the past, serious bugs inflicted on those too damn eager to upgrade to builds that werent 100% proven ? Unless you're doing that for testing or evaluation ..... What you ask is correct, BUT people who know the risks, OR know that its actually stable enough and can fix the problems themselves its fine. (myself included in that comment) :D I used the current build for 1903 for some time on two workshop PC's when it came out BEFORE upgrading the others, so I did test its stability. Actual Insider builds you do take a chance it will all turn to sh1t, that's whats so funny, some of the people who complain about insider builds crashing and losing all their data, Microsoft WARN a LOT, DONT use insider builds on main Computers or important data, in other words expect problems, yet they still complain its unstable --no kidding ;) If you look on UUP Dump, there's Feature update (1903) and insider Preview. When it turns to Feature update that's the main work done, The Feature update has already been sent out (weeks ago) to the Manufactures as RTM, and as per normal there are cumulative updates /patches coming out with minor fixes. Last time there was a known bug for months before that MS kind of put on the back burner, then got their arse bitten so they stopped it, this time they have learnt, and if a persons PC has hardware installed that is known to cause problems they wont be offered the update through Windows updates normally till they fix it. ( as per previous post) So yeah, download and install at your own risk at the moment. That's why I said its NOT official. :)	wainuitech (129)
1460295	2019-05-02 01:21:00	Ive seen plenty of info on various tech sites & blogs re 1903, but nothing from anyone who has actually installed & used it (except WT). Just the usual Tech Blog cut & paste from other sites who cut and paste from other sites :badpc: 1903 gives more control over updates (?), so for that alone it would be worthwhile. So many weird (minor) bugs in various updates now, its worth waiting for others to go through the pain first . You'll find some not commonly used thing no longer works properly.	1101 (13337)
1460296	2019-05-02 02:30:00	1903 gives more control over updates (?), so for that alone it would be worthwhile. In Earlier versions any Cumulative updates will have just downloaded and installed. In this one ( default settings) it does ask /Advise. I guess at some point it would just go ahead and install, who knows, have to wait and see ?? 9581 Ive seen plenty of info on various tech sites & blogs re 1903, but nothing from anyone who has actually installed & used it LOTS of people on the insider program have been using it for quite a while, generally as mentioned a LOT of the tech sites simply copy/paste others reports. One of the really helpful apps is the Sandbox in 1903 ( Requires pro Version, not in Home) used it a few times now to test software, at least once a program I was wanting to use all turned to custard causing all sorts of problems. Shut sandbox - problem gone. :) Howtogeek has a long list of all the newer options >>> everything-new-in-windows-10s-april-2019-update/ (www.howtogeek.com) One of my customers wanted the newer Version after a HDD failure, its a real "grunt" machine :) AMD E1 4GB memory with a 128SSD ( I suggested) hums along quite well for such a low spec.	wainuitech (129)

I will get this version ? id=0a48cb72-cd3e-4f5a-a1e6-da2f7f9adb00" target="_blank">uupdump.ml as said I will not be using it to update the existing W10 v1809 that I havem so it will be an experience in learning to see what if any 'bugs' appear until Official Release to Public is out on the town. cheers garry	kioti (17360)

Unless you're doing that for testing or evaluation ..... 1101 hi.... not in a rush to get v1903, will be installing /upgrading to a specially created SSD containing backup copy of existing W10 v 1809 that I am using. Basically for having a looksee and see how it goes, what bugs it shows before the official RTM version is available. Thanks Garry	kioti (17360)
