Windows 10 1903

Or just run the Media Creation Tool and upgrade immediately, no need to reinvent the wheel

 

I never tried MCT ever. I was really afraid it will break my PCs during upgrade. Abbodi's script uses Aria2 and downloads just like IDM. With IDM you can download the direct hotlink just under 30 mins. The script integrates updates with build 116 on install.wim and boot.wim along with removal of WinSxS garbage and does other stuffs too. One thing I recommend you don't choose the option to integrate netfx3.5 which will cause issues because ResetBase won't work when there's pending actions.

 

If anyone did an upgrade then you wanna clean out the old Windows.old folder, don't delete it manually, but run the Storage Sense Tool under Settings > System > Storage > Configure Storage Sense or run it now:

 

however, using the 1903 media creation tool downloads & creates 1903 ISOs that are build 18362.30 (not the newest build for 1903)

I'd rather do what Vasudev is doing and using UUP dump downloader & converter to download & create an "updated" 1903 ISO which includes the KB4505057 update for 1903 (build 18362.116).

also, when updating to 1903 thru either automatic update or windows update, users will be getting the newest 1903 build + latest CU for 1903

well I have, done Win10 upgrades occasionally with MCT and it works on some of my PCs

 

To each their own, but if I had a choice, I'd pick the official tool to download Windows 10 any day over someone's downloader tool.

I did use that tool before but only when this build was leaked and we had no official channel to get it.

 

Why would you upgrade? Or was it meant as a Joke? This is more as a bad advice.

Want this as well?


Edit.
What a beauty

I tried it and it NO longer works. It looks like MS plugged that hole. Hopefully someone will find another way.

 

I had read awhile ago that MS plans to use "Storage Sense" as a means to clean up the hard drive possibly replacing the Disk Cleanup Tool feature found in Windows Explorer.

 

It left some traces for me. I am using Cleanmgr+ and your disk cleanup shortcut with sageset and sagerun. Open up Cleanmgr+ and run Disk Cleanup shortcut, otherwise you might see a message saying "Disk Cleanup is going away in newer release, use Storage Sense instead."

 

This worked to upgrade the 1903 Insider Preview to the current release for me. The multi-edition ISO does not seem to include LTSC. It included Enterprise and Enterprise N, but no LTSC. Do you know if they changed something to where simply entering the LTSC product key changes Enterprise to Enterprise LTSC?
