    Update version 1903

    When updating to version 1903, my computer gets stuck at 27% completed after 5 hours of updating. Can anyone tell me what is happening? Also, version 1809 showed on my list of failed installs and then it disappeared from the list. Was there a 1809?

    Windows 10 Pro 1709 update to 1803, 1809 or 1903?

    In theory your current settings will be delaying updates to a point where there should not be any stability or quality issues. All being well you will have a years worth of quality issues in that version fixed.

    • If you want latest with potential teething troubles then go for 1903.
    • 1809 has been out for more than 6 months so there should no longer be any show-stopping bugs or errors, everything should just work
    • your current settings are postponing feature updates for 1 year and as a result you are offered 1803. This version should be solid, by now well tested and fairly mature.

      The version number of 1803 x64 2019-07B suggests that it is downloading it with all relevant updates to July 2019, meaning you are getting all the fixes without the problems of a newer "feature" update such as 1809 or 1903.

    If you want best stability and least chance of issues then let it install the version it is proposing.

    If you want to live on the edge then go for something newer.

    If your system is mission critical and you have no backups then you want stability. If you want features but can tolerate a bit of risk then you want the latest.

    Updating from Version 1809 to 1903 Freezes

    To early to update to Version 1903?

    Those that have upgraded to Version 1903, is MS still coming out with download updates to that version quite frequently? Or, do you suggest waiting another month or 2?

    I waited 3 months to upgrade to 1809. This past May, I never saw so many updates to that version......weekly! Maybe those updates were some additions that are in 1903???
