    best way to apply Windows 1809 update to VMs?


    I have some VMS that I don't use very much. They were created at least a year ago, so I want to update them to 1809. What's the best way to do that? I will be using a bootable USB drive created with Rufus using an image created by Media Creation Tool.

    Thanks,



    :)

    The tutorials provided are just a list of troubleshooting steps. Use only the steps which apply to you.

    Since none of the troubleshooting steps here worked, I'd suggest you do a Clean install.

    Thermal paste applied on your GPU / CPU, survey!

    You already know what I'm going to say.

    • Cool Silver G4
    • ~9 months
    • As directed first step,
      Second step I always install, then immediately uninstall, the HSF to remove the excess TIM. Which generally includes thoroughly cleaning either the processor die and/or the HS mating surface. Only both if I really screwed up and put way too much on, but always at least one or the other. Because it's almost impossible, IMO, to not apply too much TIM on your first try. And you can typically get by easily with half the amount(or ~ whatever is still stuck to the processor die or HSF after removing it). Next step I usually apply a few tiny pin point size dabs in any spots that look like they need more. Then final step, I reinstall the HSF, and call it good.
    • Because it's some seriously good TIM! Best I've ever used. No joke!*Wink best way to apply Windows 1809 update to VMs? ;)

    Update Windows 10 to 1809 manually

    It's been a while after Microsoft released an update to fix issues in the initial Windows 10 1809 update. But the page where we can download the updates as standalone packages still has a hole instead of download link to the 1809.17763.1 version package:


    best way to apply Windows 1809 update to VMs? IrC85.png


    Windows 10 Update Assistant page is useless as well, since it offers to download April 2018 Update, lol.

    So, I can't update my 1803.17134.376 to 1809 even after more than a month since it's initially was released.

    (Of course, "drastically improved" Windows Update doesn't suggest the 1809 update, too. Actually, it has been never working on this Win 10 copy, so I used to download all the updates manually via the first link in this post.)

    Has anybody figured out a way of how to manually update from 1803 to 1809?

    Without hardcore stuff, please, like making bootable media which potentially would have a great chance of destroying the currently installed Win 10 copy best way to apply Windows 1809 update to VMs? :)

    UPDATE: I was completely confused by that "Microsoft recommends" wording near the 1809 update on that page and some top articles in Google saying that it was released and ready for production with that quick patch. So, this question is from this confusion.

    Thanks to comments below and @music2myear answer, it's clear now that 1809 is still not released. So, there is no point in update attempts (at least for me) at the moment.
