Windows 10: I have installed the 1903 update; however, winver shows I am on 1809 (OS Build 17763.652)

As the subject describes, I have installed the 1903 update, but winver shows that I am running 1809 (OS Build 17763.652). What's the deal? I need 1903 so that I can install my updated antivirus software.

After installing build 1903 but winver still shows build 1809 ???


Hi guys, I would like to try windows build 1903 so I downloaded the "MediaCreationTool1903.exe" file. Everything went smoothly during the installation process. But after the installation I checked via winver it still shows build 1809. So how can I install build 1903 on my pc? Thanks...

That would be from the widely publicised 'leaked' link to download the 1903 MCT from Microsoft. I downloaded it too....





...but Microsoft have now blocked access.


However, the 1903 MCT requires a second file in order to make 1903 media or to upgrade to 1903 before the official release. The MCT is only one half of the files you'd need. The other half is a 'products.xml' file that defines the esd files to be downloaded - and the one for 1903 hasn't been leaked. You need the .xml file inside a products.cab and then use the MCT's /SelfHost option so that it uses your local copy instead of getting one from the servers.


Run on its own, the 1903 MCT will download its products.xml from the update servers. The currently available products.xml is for 1809, so the 1903 MCT makes that.

 

What build version is Windows 10 Update 1903?

My Windows 10 Pro desktop shows "Build 17763.rs5_release.180914.1434" in the lower left corner.

I finally got Windows 10 Feature update version 1903 installed after several tries.

Windows update shows it as installed, and that my Windows installation is up-to-date.

Is this the correct build number for 1903?
