How to get the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update

cheezz · 17 Oct 2017

Day after day I'm so confused (Dobie Gray, Drift Away). Which is the fall update: 16299.15 or .19. MCT says .15 but my pc updated to .19.
Thanks for your help.

Hello @LEOPEVA64,

16299.15 is the correct current version of MCT.

Windows 10 will get updated to 16299.19 during the update though.

Yes, I already used the link on the first page, but @lopedoggie says the new version is 16299.19, that's why I asked.

.15 is the FCU, .19 is the first update on top of it.

Hope anyone trying to get it now is very patient as the servers are really bogged down. I'm averaging 3.8Mbps. I got both the 32 and 64 bit ISOs at work today in less than 15 minutes. Now it's going to take 30 minutes for one ISO at best.

Started the update process through windows update at 7pm UK time. Download took 25 mins. The installation is still ongoing! WTF! I don't have a high spec laptop, it's an AMD A10-8700P 8gb Ram (1.5 years old) but surely it shouldn't take this long! It's a god damn joke and the last time I buy a piece of shit AMD based computer. W10 experience started off well with it 1 year ago though. I don't even have many installed apps.

My update failed after stuck at 88% download for 1 hour 15 minutes and a laptop is stuck at 96% so we will see if that one fails too. Fingers crossed.

2nd try on the desktop was successful but the HP laptop has failed 2 times. Not sure if I will try again, I might go for a fresh install.

The current MCT version is 16299.15.

Windows 10 will update to 16299.19 afterwards though.

FCU failed -- big time!!

Made USB media using MCT, ran update from it. Failed, leaving me with an unformatted primary partition.

So, did restore to 10/15 using image made with MR.

HP laptop running Win10 Home.

UPDATE: Updated two desktops:
1) Win10 Home 32-bit -- Updated OK
2) Win10 Pro 64-bit -- Updated OK

ALSO, tried updating a new HP Eliteboot laptop through Windows Update because, unlike the other HP laptop, this one showed the Feature Update -- but after it downloaded it, it restarted Checking for Updates again. And yeah, I checked Winver and it is still 1703.
