Windows 10: Windows 10 October 2018 update not showing in settings>Windows Update

I have installed this update before no problem. I currently have version 1803, because I upgraded from a crappy WD HDD to a Samsung SSD, and the USB I had was version 1803, not 1809 like my hard drive had. So, my issue is that it refuses to show up in Windows Update. PERIOD. and I do not have the patience to wait 2 solid hours to download just 1 GB with the media creation tool. I have ran countless troubleshooters and performed sfc /scannow with absolutely no results.


Gateway NV53, AMD Athlon II (x2), M360 2.3GHZ

8 GB DDR2 RAM, 128 GB Samsung 840 EVO SSD. (old HDD was Western DigitalWD5000BEVT, 500 GB)


Windows 10, version 1803, (x64) build 17134.472

(I do not store docs on my C drive, so I have lots of room available. )


I would appreciate not giving me the "runaround" with troubleshooters. thanks!

:)

Next Major Windows 10 Update Named "Spring Creators Update"

The next Windows 10 service pack major update has been named "Spring Creators Update." Windows Insider Program users toying with Build 17618 of the operating system spotted a listing of all the major updates of Windows 10 known to the build, when running "Get-VMHostSupportedVersion" in Power Shell. The last entry reads "Microsoft Windows 10 Spring Creators Update 1803." The version number (1803 in this case), often coincides with the public release date of the update. The Fall Creators Update 1709, released in 2017-09 (September) to Insiders. Going by that convenion, Spring Creators Update could see a "branded" Insider preview build this month, 2018-03 (March), with a public release usually 3-4 weeks after, presumably before Summer kicks in.
