Either they’re incorporated into the 1809 ISO or aren’t being offered to this version of Windows at present. Interestingly, NONE of the KB’s I had previously hidden on 1709 showed up as installable or hidden.

Although most of my tweaks were untouched, I did find a number of things that needed resetting or fixing.Īfter verifying/resetting most of my prior customization of 1709, I went back online and used Wub.exe and wushowhide to make sure I only let through the March updates that I wanted (KB4487038, KB4483452 and Windows Defender virus updates). However, as PKCano recommends, thoroughly check all your critical Windows settings, Task Scheduler tasks, Group Policies, registry tweaks, etc., before going online again. After it rebooted a number of times, 1809 was installed and ready to go - sort of.Īll of my programs and data were untouched. Thank you both! The upgrade proceeded quickly and didn’t even try to go online (maybe because Wub.exe was set to ‘disabled’). Never had any surprises.įollowing PKCano’s great advice for offline upgrading and ch100’s additional command line switches ( ), all went quite smoothly. Prior to the upgrade, I’d been using Wub.exe and wushowhide.diagcab in conjunction with the deferal options in Windows 10 Pro.

This would prevent any new, potentially buggy March updates from being installed. I also chose to do the upgrade offline using the official ISO I downloaded on which I burned to a DVD. Since the known issues with 1809 seemed unlikely to be ones I’d face with my usage scenario, I went ahead and rolled the dice – after creating an image of the entire hard drive with Reflect, of course. I chose to skip 1803 and go straight to 1809 so I wouldn’t face another upgrade quite as soon.
