Windows 10 october update (version 1809) is officially available

Microsoft releases Windows 10 October Update

We already talked about the novelties that this update will introduce in a special article, such as an improvement in the clipboard that synchronizes between devices, the Screen Sketch tool to take screenshots and the Your Phone application to connect the phone to the computer, in addition to others functions.

The new version will start to reach users slowly and, similar to the previous version, Microsoft is expected to use AI to offer Windows 10 update more reliably. This means that computers and devices will not be updated at the same time. Supported devices will get it first, and after the update has been verified to be more stable, Microsoft will make it available to other devices.

However, it is possible to do a manual installation of the update if we want. The easiest way would be from the Windows Update tool.

Update from Windows Update

Although it is recommended to wait until you receive a notification that automatically indicates that the Windows 10 October Update is ready for your computer, we can force it manually.

We open Settings.Click Update and security.Click Windows Update.Click the Check for updates button.After the update has been downloaded we must restart the computer for it to update.

With the Update Assistant tool

It is also possible to update the system using the Update Assistant tool.

Open this Microsoft support website in your web browser. Now click the Update now button. Immediately we will have to download an executable file that we will have to execute to start the tool. Inside the application we click on the Update Now button button.After the tool confirms that your hardware is compatible, click the Next button, then the Restart Now button.

These are the two easiest ways to get Windows 10 October Update without having to wait for the notification in the system.
