KB4522355 Windows 10 Build 18362.449 19H1 and 18363.449 19H2 - Oct. 23 Insider

Thank you for your continued support fg2001gf10F.

The PC that was on 18363.10024 is now back to 18362.10024 which I don't think will cause any problems with updates. Unfortunately I was idiot enough to put the earlier Insider 18362.10022 on several other machines and with further 'tinkering' they are now 18363.10022. I have tried the same tricks with one, but I cannot uninstall the 1909 features update as the drives have had Disk Clean-up run. I have tried many fixes I found over at MDL Forums but sadly they have not helped. Furthermore, the upgrade to 18683.418 will not work on any other machine (it only offers a clean install).

I know only too well that I should have imaged the drives before messing about with Insider installs, but I didn't anticipate these sort of problems with unknown builds happening.

18362.10024 why they release this for 19H2 if now is 18363.446

If you use the 18363.448 ISO to upgrade from 18362.10024 and allow check and download updates online, you may end up with different results depending on which insider ring you are in.

1) If you are in the Insider Slow Ring you will end up with 18363.10024 and that may not be your desired result.
2) If you are in the insider Preview Ring you will get to 18363.448.

I had to switch Insider ring from Slow to Preview and then the online upgrade worked as case #2 going from 18362.10024 to 18363.448.

I'm in Preview ring, and I clean installed yesterday with the 18362.446 ISO . I have tried all day to find the update (or trick) that will give me the difference from .446 to .448, but no luck.
Ideas?

I did not have any problem using windows update to go from 18363.446 to 18363.448.
If you are in the Preview Ring you should be already at 18363, 19H2 why did you do a clean install of 18362.446 instead of 18363.446 ?
Perhaps you can download the 18363.448 ISO and do the upgrade again ?
I'm not clear about which Insider Ring still handles 19H1 18362.446 or 18362.448 ?

Sorry, my bad. I'm on 18363.446 and I can't see any updates whatsoever!



I have now downloaded 18363.448 full, and I have made an ISO. I will try to install this onto my new install keeping all my files and apps. We'll see how it goes.

That should work, I don't know why you don't see the updates with W.U., perhaps not yet on the server in your location ?

Yes it worked . But a lot of work to download, convert and then make an ISO, installing windows (keeping all settings and programs), reboot a lot of times . But now I'm with you at 18363.448 (don't tell me, that yours is now 18363.449!!!)

This time Microsoft has made a mistake with all this confusion about buildnumbers, it looks more and more like Brexit here in Europa
