Windows 10: Running 1803, can I skip upgrade to 1809 and go direct to 19H1

seeing it is going to release in April?
I can supposedly download the iso and run it direct from Explorer and it will install.

Here is how to delay update upgrades. I assume I can still do the manual iso install if the PC is set to delay?
I just dont see much purpose in upgrading to 1809 and a few months later to the next one.

1809 or 19H1 (wait and see game)

Our in house builds have been trying to keep up with the whole WaaS model, deploying 1703,1709, 1803 but it is already November and 1809 is no where to be found yet. 19H1 (aka 1903) will be sometime in March, I assume, so if 1809 isn't available until December
or January, then as a organization, why would I even consider 1809? Should I just stop planning 1809 rollout and skip it since it can't seem to get out the door on time, adding to the fact that the organization has a bitter taste about even considering 1809
at this point. Will I even get the option to opt-out of 1809 since we are talking about a total possible deployment timeline of maybe half the amount of time we would see it vs. when 19H1 hits? It seems 1809 is going to be 1812/1901. I can't hit my clients
with a major feature update, then in 2 months another one.

I just want to know the thinking, because honestly this is stressing out this engineer.

 

Skip 1803 and get 1809.

Is it okay for me to skip the April 1803 update and get the Fall 1809 update instead?

Hi SageHalo2983128,

Yes if you can manage to block 1803, when 1809 is released you can go straight to that version, there is no requirement to have 1803 to get 1809 . ..
