- Feature update via windows 10 version 1909 enablement package download

 

In recent blogs by John Cable and myself , we shared how Windows 10, version referred to internally as 19H2 will continue our efforts to improve the overall update experience for consumers and businesses. In this post, we are sharing more detail about the mechanics that will be used to provide those improvements. Again, for devices running Windows 10, version and previous, there is nothing new with the update process to version Devices running Windows 10, version can take advantage of a new way of servicing that leverages the same servicing technology used to deliver monthly quality updates to get the new features and capabilities available in version This enables you to install the update to Windows 10, version with an improved update experience and reduced downtime.

Windows 10, versions and share a common core operating system with an identical set of system files. The enablement package is a great option for installing a scoped feature update like Windows 10, version as it allows you to update from version to version with a single restart, reducing update downtime and, thus, enabling you to take advantage of new features right away.

Additionally, since Windows 10, versions and share a common baseline, applications and drivers that worked with version are designed to work as-is with version , just like any Windows 10 quality update. As stated above, if your device is running any version of Windows 10 earlier than version , there are no changes to how you install Windows 10, version If your devices are running Windows 10, version , here is guidance on how to update to Windows 10, version If you receive updates directly from Windows Update, the Windows 10, version update will be presented just like any feature update.

The installation process will be faster, but, as with any feature update, you will have the ability to choose when to install version using the controls that we announced earlier this year.

If you are using Windows Update for Business , you will receive the Windows 10, version update in the same way as prior feature updates and as defined by your feature update deferral policy. Windows will automatically choose the right path and will update devices already running Windows 10, version to Windows 10, version using the enablement package. All of the existing options you use to deploy feature updates are supported with Windows 10, version , and update media is or will soon be available in all of the normal channels for more detailed information on timing, please see the Windows IT Pro blog.

Note that installing Windows 10, version via media does not provide the time savings and reduced restarts available when upgrading from version to version using the enablement package. We are making the Windows 10, version enablement package available on WSUS as KB , which can be deployed on existing deployments of Windows 10, version You can verify that the Windows 10, version update was successful by running Winver, versioning APIs, WMI, and other common interfaces, and verifying that the operating system build number is Because of the common baseline, even after installing Windows 10, version , individual system file versions will still appear as This will revert the device to Windows 10, version This is a separate path from the Recovery tab, which uninstalls the most recent non-servicing-based feature update.

Windows Server instances will continue to receive Windows Server, version monthly quality updates. Instead, refreshed update media will soon be made available for updating to Windows Server, version We want to conclude this post with a quick reminder.

Devices running Windows 10, version receive 18 months of support. Devices running the Enterprise, IoT Enterprise, or Education editions of Windows 10, version receive 30 months of support.

For more information about the Windows servicing lifecycle, please see the Windows lifecycle fact sheet.

Yes, you can install it on any Windows 10 machine. I myself am a Surface Book 2 user and have been running it for months. We can continue to defer feature updates while still receiving quality updates? Feature updates are being moved from March, September releases to December, June as I understand but the frequency will remain the same as indicated?

You mentioned "deferred" so you may be WuFB managed. If so, we adhere to your WuFB deferral settings. We have clients on and I don't want to deploy the complete Is there any articles on how exactly to do this? We have updated one machine with an enablement package update via WSUS and in winver it shows new build , but in WSUS it is still after latest report. Single restart huh? I just ran update pressed Download and install now link on Updates page in Settings on a fully updated laptop.

It downloaded and presented Restart now button. I pressed it. It rebooted, showed usual updates installing view with percents and then rebooted again and then booted into Windows desktop autologon enabled.

So, not exactly one restart : At least in my case. Some cheap ASUS laptop. Most of our users do not want to deal with updates and were ok with existing installation options especially when restart is as fast as this one. Should not be a problem. The servicing pipelines are separate, and the update process in this case, same as monthly, you have been using for sometime now with now issues. John Wilcox. Even a CU affects the build number.

In my case CU digits are reported correctly, but not the build digits. But it does show CU number correctly, so maybe not it. Oleg K What CU number are you seeing?

I am getting. But actually winver for and shows. I think first it was. Hi, we have freshly installed machines in fr-ca with OSD with the October cumulative update installed.

The enablement Package has been deployed available to those machines, but they don't show up in software center. Stephane Lalancette do your clients have the prerequisite cumulative and servicing stack updates installed? If you have the prerequisites installed, what does the state of the enablement package update report as for the clients in deployment monitoring?

It is called "Version" column and it shows And it looks like it also shows it wrong for for me. It should be It's like it got stuck after it received these new updates.

Oleg K polaris The Version in WSUS is based on the version of the Windows update client, which does not change to , it's more of a binary version. For the CU issue, not all cumulative updates patch the component of Windows that is the Windows update client, and in this case.

It seems that smaller feature updates have their own problem now. Or we should just approve them and hope they install without checking no Needed shown at least :. I appears MS managed to make a total mess out of this, that everyone now has to spend numerous hours to Work around - total Waste of everyones time. MS please call in some proffesionals…. AceTech30 you can install in on your surface, the only update block that I've seen is this. I wish it was tested internally on real hardware with Microsoft's test group if any still left?

Kwaw by " enhancement package", are you referring to the standalone cumulative update for ? How is your device being managed, getting updated today?

Both are covered above in the blog, both Windows Update managed and Self Managed. This is a corporate environment so a bit challenging when these stop working. I can still access Teams via browser so very odd that just the app got broken. You can fix it by attempting to log-in with a non-existent user like Arbdargardawal yourcompany.

Re-installing Teams also seems to work, but this is faster. When we began the rollout of , we tested it on our Technology Department computers before installing to any other machines in the School District.

We had various "strange" issues. A couple of machines were simply like we has performed a complete reinstall of the OS. We had to install all apps. We had to install printers. We had to setup the machines like they were fresh out of the box. One machine had to have Office reinstalled. Needless to say, none of the test machines were right. All had something wrong with them. But as long as 3 days later, some of the machines corrected themselves and were OK again???

I hope the next version of Windows 10 doesn't come with so many "strange" quirks. After installing this, I ran the '' update, flawlessly and continued to the latest 'November' You must be a registered user to add a comment. If you've already registered, sign in.
