Windows 10: Possible to upgrade w10 Pro 1703 to 1709 instead of 1803?

Hi there, I have multiple PCs running W10 Pro 1709 but one of my systems did not update to 1709 and is still running 1703.

Now when I try to update I can only go from 1703 to 1803.... is it possible to manually install 1709 somehow without having to reinstall the OS or anything like that?

Thanks for your help

:)

 

Reverting the inefficient right-click context menu for audio in 1803

Thanks for suggestion but I really am tired of seeing suggestions for complete re-installs or rollbacks. I shouldn't have to do this to fix a single minor issue.

 

Fall Feature update 1709 fails and reverts to 1703

Thanks Dave

I currently have a list of the 50 or so Feature Updates from 1703 still on the Windows Update screen – some marked “Requires a restart to finish installing” and others marked “Failed to install on [date]”

When 1803 appears and is downloaded, what will happen to this 1709 list?
Hopefully Win will not keep on trying to reinstall them again.

(I assume that 1803 can update 1703 directly and not with 1709 as a prerequisite...)

 

Upgrade to 1803, recovery to 1709. Cannot return to 1803.


When I received the upgrade to 1803, everything seemed fine for a couple of days but then I needed to scan a document and found that I could not communicate with my Epson printer/scanner. To cut a very long story short, I eventually found that turning my VPN (CyberGhost) off allowed access to the printer/scanner.
I decided to return to 1709 and that seemed to fix the problem, until the next reboot. So now I can't print or scan with the VPN active. Furthermore, Windows Update tells me my PC is up to date so I can't get back to 1803.
Neither Epson nor CyberGhost have any ideas, even though they have both been very helpful in running tests.
So here I am, asking if anyone here can suggest either, why the VPN is blocking the printer (even though the printer ip is in the VPN exceptions list) and/or why Windows Update will not restore 1803.
