There are no PMs involved. I thought I was asking a straightforward Q in public. So I dunno why Paul is querying his answer to me.

It's a relief to hear that I'm not being left behind & not the only 1 on 1803. If it is your "unless" that would have been the simple answer to me.

OP is answering my Q.

If he's doing that in PM it would be better in public . I am also on 1803, which makes a few of us it seems.

Unless 1809 is the "Insider" version or whatever the early adopter/Beta tester version is. I know that's what Banger is on.

1803 is old
1809 is the current service release which my main machine is on
1903 which my other machine is on is due out anytime soon. *That's an insider preview

So can anyone explain why I'm still on old 1803 when my PC keeps itself up-to-date regularly?

Settings/windows update/check for updates.

It should have installed last october, you might as well wait for 1903 which is due very soon. Windows 10 home or pro? Did you buy a machine with 1803 pre-installed after october?

To update now go to https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/software-download/wi... and click update on the page but as some pundits are suggesting 1903 could be as soon as this week I recommend you wait.

As I said earlier there is no such thing on my Win 10 Home system. I bought it in Dec 2015 with Win 10 pre-installed with what must be the initial public version prior to 1607 Anniversary Update.

As we now seem to be going round in circles & I find I'm in good company with RobertoS I guess I'm never gonna find out the reason why I'm still on the "old" 1803 & I'll just wait till MS decides to update me further as it's always done.

All I'm interested in at this stage is why I haven't been updated like others thro' my normal Win Update, not how to force d/load an update or what might come next.

If you are on 1803 and started with 1607 it has updated at some point.

Of course it has, I never said it hadn't! I'm simply querying why it hasn't auto updated to 1809 yet like the rest of you.

Sheesh, who'd have thought such a simple query would be so convoluted to answer?

I have a feeling I was on the right track, but the wrong answer. It could be Windows 10 Pro, as someone has just asked.

Have you got enough free space, that is one reason it wont update.

Also it's not failing to update, it's not even trying.
