Windows 10: Windows 10 Feature update 1909 takes more than it is supposed to

Hi, Straight to the point.

I use Windows 10 x64 Pro, It is a fresh installation. Licensed version.

The Build Infos are:

Windows 10 Pro

v1809

Installed On: 08.09.2020

OS Build: 17763.107

Ask me for more information if you need,

So comes the problem in Windows Update.



Yesterday, when i started my PCnormal boot as usual i connected my PC to the internet to check for updates and keep my PC updated.

After checking i put it to download and install, after it was downloadedone was left I spotted a thing "Feature Update to Windows 10. 1909" was taking a lot of time to download. I looked out for it what it is and what is its size i have a limited data usage plan* so after finding about for a while, i came to the answer that its a 180KB enablement package which enabled version 1903's features or something. So 180KB? after a while i looked at it again and saw that it was more than just 180kb. So there the issue is, that package isn't 180kb or it is misnamed. Kindly help me regarding this problem. and also i spotted another problem today, the updates were stuck at PENDING INSTALL and they didn't continue further, and to fix it i came to a solutionmore like i wasted all my internet that i'll have to delete all the downloaded update and reset Windows Update. and so i did it i had no other thing left to do, and If the feature update thingy is really more than 180kb and like around gigs then kindly tell me how can i except it, install all the other updates?


Thank you

Windows Update History shows both Feature Updates 1903 and 1909 installed

After I installed the Windows 10 Feature Update from 1903 to 1909 my Windows Update History shows

Feature Updates (2)

Feature Update to Windows 10, version 1909 (2)

Feature Update to Windows 10, version 1903

Looking in the About page it lists Version 1909 OS Build 18363.720

In the past when I've installed a Feature Update it only shows the new update. In other words in this case it would only show 1909. Since it shows 1903 also is my computer really upgraded to 1909? Also the (2) after the 1909 is something I don't understand.

I would appreciate any help on this.

Since updates can only be delayed for so long, an actual fix would be appreciated.

 

User.000 issue after updating to 1909

I'm one of the many people suffering from issues with user profiles after applying Update 1909 to Windows 10. I've read all the threads I can find on the topic here and have followed the suggestions, all to no avail. Any other thoughts are appreciated.

After applying Update 1909, the ProfileImagePath was changed to c:\users\User.000
One file that was always in use and couldn't be removed was left in c:\users\User (can't recall or find the exact file now), so I could never rename or remove the c:\user\User directory.

I followed the multiple suggestions from Brink and others:

• Rebooted at least 6 times
• Enabled hidden Administrator
• Booted into Safe Mode
• Changed ProfileImagePath
• Tried to rename c:\users\User but couldn't because a file was still in use
• Copied all data from c:\users\User.000 into c:\users\User
• Rebooted and had temporary profile
• Followed steps in Brink tutorial to change ImageProfilePath; rebooted with no change
• Restored using Restore Point from before Update 1909 - returned to single profile state (User.000)
• Removed each update that was installed individually and rebooted after each update removal - profile state never changed
• After all updates were removed, repeated the steps above with hidden Administrator, changing profile, etc. - same issue with file in use in c:\users\User
• Followed all steps above with hidden Administrator but without copying files from User.000 to User - same results

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
