Bork Tuesday, Any Problems Yet?

Yes! this is the exact resource I used to make a simple switch over to Release Preview ring and get 1909.

I can read German so I appreciate the two resources you provided. The only thing: the ISO links, they would be in German, I presume? I guess there's no way to opt for English if using those.

 

Likewise.

It would seem like it. Here's the filename of one of the ISOs -

Code:

18363.356.X64_DE-CLIENTCORE_V2_clientConsumer_Final.ISO | 4.3 GB

Then the article also states -

I installed October Win Updates on two 7x64 machines without issue.
That would be the x64-based Quality Rollup (KB4519976), the Malicious Soft Removal Tool (KB890830) and a couple Office and Excel updates.
FWIW

 

Microsoft Fixes Windows 10 Version 1809 Black Screen Bug After Nearly 4 Months

I just installed KB4519976 in my W7. I thought I was also supposed to get KB4524157 but it wasn't offered. I think I read that it was pulled but I am not sure. Does anybody know if its included in KB4519976 or should I get the installer from the catalogue or what is the proper thing to do about it..I had not started my W7 for about a month so I don't know if KB4524157 would have been offered in early October when it first came out.

Microsoft: Don't install Windows 10 1809 October 15 update, it breaks Defender ATP
Microsoft urges organizations to avoid installing KB4520062 because it could stall Defender antivirus services

Bo, Windows Update sent you the correct patch (KB4519976) for October. Forget about 4157 (it is wrapped up in 9976).

 

You have to wonder if they are failing on purpose at this point. I'm assuming I don't have to care about this issue if I run 3rd party AV.

 

Thanks Emmjay.

Got the same updates. Not sure about the Autopilot. From it's description we shouldn't get that one:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us...date-for-autopilot-in-windows-10-version-1903

 

It seems to do no harm and if more people get it we will hear about it from for example Ask Woody and things hopefully become more clear.

 

I got it on mine as well.

 

Well, the Autopilot update was not offered here, rightfully. The machine, however, did get what appears to be the same KB three times now. It is showing up only once in Control Panel, though. This is the Release Preview Ring, with the enablement for 1909 so winver is 18363.449. I also think some extra free disk space is taken up by something System-related but not sure what.

Spoiler: same kb 3x

 

I got it also and I am on x(64) Home 1903.

 

Here's Microsoft's overview on AutoPilot: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/deployment/windows-autopilot/windows-autopilot . Makes me suspect it is going to be used in the 1909 Feature Upgrade perhaps?

 

Servicing Stack update released

 

Well I just read the AutoPilot overview and I can't see any benefit in having it on my solitary home PC.

 

Someone over at Ask Woody site posted this about why Home 1903 users are receiving the Autopilot update:

Have no clue what the "chip" reference is about. Again, I believe this is related to the upcoming 1909 release. Also a whole bunch of Win drivers updated in this cumulative update. One that caught my eye was hvservice.sys.

 

I've received Windows Autopilot update on my two Windows machines as well.

 

I believe it's cult language for 'supported OEMs' - currently 8 of them participate in this program (with 1 soon to come).
See here, and then there (scroll at the bottom).

 

Same here.
