"Up to date" even though I am running version 1507 (RTM build of Windows 10); how to get 1803 (Redstone 4)?

Well without any real help from anyone, I managed to get a legitimately genuine version of Windows 10 installed on my computer... but it is from a DVD so I am running the first released version of the operating system, and I am trying to update to the latest release. When I run Windows Update, I used to see "Feature Update to 1803" as an available update, but now I don't see it at all and I know for a fact that I am still running Threshold instead of Redstone.

    I killed the service (wuauserv) before it could finish preparing the 1803 update... I won't run Windows Update this time and just get the download for 1703.

    That's going to complicate things, that 1803 wants to come in so quick to spoil your plans. Here is WUShowHide to stop it...

    You must catch it trying to come in again. Could be you are too late, though, if it has begun to download. I guess let it do its work - it may be successful this time now that 1607 is in.

    Good luck, & keep us informed.

    Well here I am again with good news...

    I have successfully installed 1607 Anniversary Update on my computer.

    Next one I will try is either 1703 or 1709. In any case, though, I am finally getting somewhere.~

    UPDATE: This is what I was talking about earlier when I said Redstone 4 was appearing in Windows Update...

    No, that link there is good and I will start with the 1607 Anniversary Update, see how that works, but for now I really should be getting some sleep... it's been too long a day now.

    Thank you all so far for your help, I think that, even if I don't get my computer updated, a few good things still come out of this.
