UPDATE 3/30: KB4554364 CU Win 10 v1903 build 18362.753 and v1909 build 18363.753

March 24, 2020 - KB4541335 (OS Builds 18362.752 and 18363.752)

Applies to: Windows 10 version 1902 all editions, Windows Server version 1903, Windows 10 version 1909 all editions, Windows Server version 1909

What's new for Windows 10, version 1909 and Windows 10, version 1903 release notes
Windows 10, versions 1903 and 1909 share a common core operating system and an identical set of system files. As a result, the new features in Windows 10, version 1909 were included in the recent monthly quality update for Windows 10, version 1903 (released October 8, 2019), but are currently in a dormant state. These new features will remain dormant until they are turned on using an enablement package, which is a small, quick-to-install “master switch” that simply activates the Windows 10, version 1909 features.
To reflect this change, the release notes for Windows 10, version 1903 and Windows 10, version 1909 will share an update history page. Each release page will contain a list of addressed issues for both 1903 and 1909 versions. Note that the 1909 version will always contain the fixes for 1903; however, 1903 will not contain the fixes for 1909. This page will provide you with the build numbers for both 1909 and 1903 versions so that it will be easier for support to assist you if you encounter issues.
For more details about the enablement package and how to get the feature update, see the Windows 10, version 1909 delivery options blog.

Windows Update Improvements
Microsoft has released an update directly to the Windows Update client to improve reliability.

This doesn't apply to long-term servicing editions.
