Maybe they plan to release it on halloween and scare everyone with a BSOD during the update.

Everything's possible, esp with Micro$oft!

What is the insider program now mandatory. Come on four updates that required reboots in only 2 weeks. Sick of this.

Only the Patch Tuesday updates will automatically be downloaded by windows update. For all the other CUs, like this one, windows update will not find them unless you specifically click the 'Check for updates' button. So only one of those updates was 'mandatory'. The others are for you to choose to install (or not).

The reason is that only the CU for second Tuesday of the month contains any new security fixes, all the others are previews of quality updates that will be in the next 'Patch Tuesday' update.

At times referred to as our “B” release, Update Tuesday (most often referred to as Patch Tuesday) updates are published the second Tuesday of each month. These updates are the primary and most important of all the monthly update events and are the only regular releases that include new security fixes.

maybe we'll get the prerelease of FCU tomorrow. Would be a nice 'birthday present' for me - my birthday is 21st.

Happy Birthday Magilla!
