Windows 10: Update report 1803 installed

I installed 1803 and then rolled back, now when I want to upgrade to 1803, "System > Update" reports that it is already installed when it is not, still running 1709; "Update Assistant" is doing the same.

Check system event logs around the time frames of failures. See what the Windows Update services post for issues.

The suggestions above about free space and running SFC are solid and should be followed. DISM might not be a bad idea to follow up with, its a bit longer and more powerful command for checking the system image. But let's see what happens next.

I'm at a 100% success rate for 1803 installs completing, that includes 4 laptops, 3 towers, and 1 virtual machine, just at home, work adds a lot more to that. It does take a while to install as @jboydgolfer pointed out and it may reset your add on/in audio device driver or software link (eq, 3d, etc). That's the only issue I've seen this far post-install, I was able to easily fix it...but it seems Creative users aren't as lucky ATM.

Let's check those logs, see if you can found 0x and EventID codes in reported events that align with the issue so we can fix them.

Another option is the in-place upgrade, download the current Windows 10 installation media and setup a bootable DVD or USB, from within Windows run the installer and choose upgrade. This effectively reinstalls Windows without screwing with your profiles, programs or settings (or at least most of them). There's a Windows 10 refresh (not reset) you can do that's similar but does remove some settings. But if you can't boot to the desktop environment its a good option.

I would say make that what you do if we can't pinpoint the issue. As that method takes a while too...depending on system speed it can take up to an hour.

So hopefully that being said, we can get you sorted and updated one way or another!
