How to get the Windows 10 May 2019 Update version 1903

Your attitude is great as well!

How can I give you a rep?

This news thread doesn't allow the giving of rep.

I've had an ongoing bloat problem with 1903 on a PC since I did a repair install and it's getting worse. My Macrium backups are now more than 4.5 GB larger than they were when I first updated to 1903. So I think I need to do a clean install, but want to be sure I get the 18362.175 version. I've updated from UUP Dump ISOs a couple of times before, but have never done a clean install. Am I correct in thinking I need to get one labeled "feature update" instead of just "update"? Or does it matter?

I contacted Microsoft and I now how I bit of knowledge to actually how this rollout works. It's extremely sensitive to any change done to the computer (and I mean anything), it's heavily based on the telemetry data aswell. they got a bunch of info from me; computer specs, apps & programs used and ISP data. They pushed it through Windows Update to my PC later that day. I have no idea how it worked exactly, but I assume something was bugged in the rollout or whatever to my PCs or home/region. So now I am on 1903. Only thing that's off: I now have a sleep symbol on my notification center (right corner) and it's constantly reminding me that it's active.

I've seen that too on some (but not all) machines I have upgraded. The trick to get it to stop reminding you seems to be to go to 'Settings > System > Focus assist' and specifically turn it off (if it's already 'off', turn it on then off again).

Ah thanks, I turned it off. It was driving me nuts. I can't remember what the setting were on 1809 (does anyone know?), but it was enabled when I upgraded to 1903.

EDIT; It turned itself on again! Whenever I open Edge it's disabled, when I minimize it it's enabled (alarm mode). Happens when I open Settings menu aswell. So when I open apps it's disabled, but when my system sits idle it's enabled? I don't understand.

Why not just get ISO with MCT and mount.

It was supposed to be fixed.

Anyone know if you can upgrade to 1903 with a USB drive and the media tool? Have they fixed this yet??
I know you can do a clean install (could since 1903 came out) but I need to be able to upgrade with a USB drive...

Nope. Still on 18362.30
