No it only finds the defender update. No 1809 feature update.
Do I have to turn off metered connection before running the commands? I'm afraid it will grab 1809.
Update: tried it, still just the defender update.
That's a great program/script. I installed the defender update and reinstalled the 3047 update (i unhid it) with it in case it wants it for 1809 installation... though I never got offered it while there. I'm leaving the 1MB 0347 microcode update uninstalled for now.
I'll use this powershell script to check for 1809 and other updates. Great having control over the updates like this. Fast install as well. Thanks ddelo.

You're most welcome.
I do find it very helpful too. I have made a script to check for updates daily and by its output I hide the updates I don't want installed, mostly the microcode updates!
Now regarding 1809, I'm afraid that if its not showing by PSWindowsUpdate, there is a very good chance that is not offered by WU either. Make a Macrium image and give it a try.
I've it done twice before and gotten burned - with show/hide tool. What happens is, I'll take off metered and press check for updates, it will download a CU or defender update, and then after restart (with CU), when it comes back up it's downloading 1809. Going by memory I could be wrong, but I even took the meter off and downloaded the CU or whatever, put meter back on, restarted, and it still started downloading 1809. This is with it not showing 1809 in show/hide.You're most welcome.

I still might try it but I have to think about it and prepare emotionally lol.
Ok so i did a macrium image, took off the metered connection and checked for updates. This is the result:You're most welcome.

Anyway, I'll be back, I'm going to use my backup to get out of it.

@tomseys - when you say you have used the windows show/hide with mixed results (trying to follow), have you tried this? I use it and it's easy way to check for what's lurking out there without fear of anything taking off and updating. Easy to hide stuff, and/or run what it shows right from the app. Take a look. Others may use this, too. I think it is different than show/hide. x86 and x64 version, so get the right one.
@tomseys
I'm sorry it didn't work.
Go back to your image (I just did it.... for another reason!..hahaha) and I would stay away from 1809 too, at least for now.
Although after a clean install, a month ago, I took the plunge and installed it. Big mistake.... lots of issues, yet.
Yeah so I went back with my macrium image - 10 minutes off my 3.0 USB drive.
Yeah I have to stay far away from the check for updates button. And keep it on metered connection. Just wish I could hide the thing via hide/show tool or the script but it never shows up, meanwhile its always lurking, ready to pounce, if I let it.
