Cumulative Update KB4089848 Windows 10 v1709 Build 16299.334 - Mar. 22

It's funny to see that on this forum a few hundred persons are getting worried if they don't receive an update in time.

And what about the other millions non technical W10 users who will not have a clue.

This update is one of those non-patch-tuesday updates that doesn't show up in WU on it's own and is only found when manually checking for it, or that's how it is at least on any pc that I, my family and friends use since the Creators Update. It's included in the next weeks update so that's why I don't worry. Maybe some users insinuates that something is wrong when they don't receive an update in time? It probably also doesn't help that the last few of them are known to behave strangely in the update-phase. But it will eventually pop up in some way shape or form because Microsoft is stubborn to push out updates as it is in their "Windows as a service" policy. :)

Take this as a challenge, try to fix this guys.
I managed to let it install again after a cache clean of windows update. It downloaded and installed it with no problems, then, at the reboot, i have it installed on my PC but it still ask me to reboot to apply, regardless it's already running with the latest update wth windows

"This update will be downloaded and installed if you go to the Windows Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update page, and click Check for updates from Microsoft Update."

LOL..this hasn't worked for me, for months now. If it wasn't for this forum, I'd be running the November 2017 version. That's the last time I was able pull in a Win10 update... and I think that was the "Creators" version. I guess that broke my update capability using the "manually check for..." method.

I think I won't receive this update, as per usual.

Digging into my memory I've come to the conclusion that the only change I've made before the appearance of the problem is a further edit to GP: Do not include drivers with Windows Update set to Enabled.

I was wrong, I had done 2 more customizzations in GP:

Configuration\Policies\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\

1) Data Collection and Preview Builds\Allow telemetry: Enabled and set to 0

2) Delivery Optimization\Download mode: Enabled and set to 0

After disabling the first one and immediately checking for updates, I've received KB4089848.
Hopefully this can be useful to others users having the same "issue".

Here why diagnostic data level set on "security" prevents Windows Update to provide cumulative / features updates.

I see a new cumulative update coming through when i run show hide called "KB4093112" windows 10 version 1709 .. maybe I'll install that... i assume that is not Spring creators? I guess it would state feature update...
