    [It is, indeed, possible. In fact, it is highly probable since it has happened so frequently in the past...that certain makes of computers are being adversely affected by 1809 and we all know why. Certain manufacturers are slow to update their devices to work better with Windows 10. (They tend to be Chinese).

    And there is one well known manufacturer of Processors that is guilty of similar behavior.

    (AMD). But checking for Software and Firmware Updates from the MANUFACTURERS of these devices would still be an advisable first step in correcting any issues]

    "JennytheGeek" fully agree with you!!! And that is why these problems keep happening. These manufacturers are not customising their imbedded software to the latest W10 and its updates and that is why these problems keep happening.  

    For exsample, my 8 year old Acer Aspire 5750/2414 (yes its been upgraded) has worked perfectly on its standard Win7 Pro that it came with then I updtaed to 8, 8.1 and W10 Pro including 1809 update's which has no imbedded Acer software. Maybe users should look at a clean install of W10 so that they don't have these imbeded software problems and/or backup their system 'regularly with Macrium Reflect v7 etc otherwise they will always experience these sorts of update problems with their imbedded software.

    Btw, I've got a full backup of the 1803 KB4462919 (OS Build 17134.345) which is its last cumulative update but, the 1809 KB4464330 (OS Build 17763.55) works perfectly and I wouldn't go back to 1803 version as the 1809 is far better.

    Thanks for providing the blog post.  Good update on the current situation with 1809.  It will be interesting to see how long that Microsoft will take for them to resolve the issue and start rolling it out again.

    If you look at the top of the page.

    It says April 2018 Update in large blue letters.

    When the October Update is re-issued it will say October 2018 Update.

    Regarding the sizes of downloads, perhaps you could put this into FeedBack Hub?
