Got sick of constant updates for 1803 and no signs of 1809 despite clicking "check now" so just downloaded the windows 10 update assistant and clicked "check now" in there. Told me straight away there is an update to 1809 and I am compatible. Downloaded in 5 minutes and is now installing.

Edit:
Elapsed time: 1 hour
Percent complete: 88

After 2 hours 15 minutes (and a couple of months

) I'm on 1809. (Hard drive notebook.) Who knows how long it has been available on Update Assistance had I known rather than Windows Update.

Yea! my context menu "new" hang up is gone. Thanks MS, for today's change.

Contextmenu ( right-click) is a problem here also .
Im getting this " In the Library , with about 5 icons next to it and the " file-location" , when removing it in regedit , its getting back after some time , also after a reboot they are back in the context-menu again !!!
I just can not remove them , I want to know whats triggering these stubborn items each time..............
Some help would be awsome !

Why not generate a System diagnostics report. Maybe, that will give you a clue about whatever is causing you these problems:

Will try ..............
Im now using a self-made task , which starts 4 minutes after reboot and repeats every 30 minutes .
It works , these context-menu items are deleted by using a reg-file in the task, this way I dont see them anymore..........

Is Microsoft now actively pushing out version 1809, or will most people only get it if they click on Check for updates?

Supposedly in you click "Check for updates" you are considered a "seeker" and it can be delivered to you.

I say "can be" as they are still interrogating machines to ensure success so not everyone gets.

It is being pushed through WU according to posts several pages back.

I'm just sitting waiting for it to find me.

" click on Check for updates " .............should do the job !

I knew that Windows Update had pushed it out to some computers, but I was curious if that number was still small.

If you click Check for updates and something starts downloading that you don't want, is there a way to stop it?
