How to get the Windows 10 May 2019 Update v1903

 

Microsoft will begin offering Windows 10 May 2019 Update v1903 shortly now, and I am confident that the majority of you have to be excited about installing it as soon as it’s made publicly accessible. This post shows the numerous methods in which you can find the Windows 10 v1903 installed immediately in your own Windows 10 PC.

Microsoft will deliver the Windows Update in a phased and controlled rollout to provide a great update experience for all. They will begin the global rollout out via Windows Update in the coming weeks. As with previous rollouts, they will use real-time feedback, machine learning (ML) and telemetry to update your device when data shows your device is ready and will have a great experience. They have enhanced the performance of their machine learning model by incorporating more device signals such as improved driver telemetry and weighting of key features such as anti-malware software as they broaden the phased rollout. They will make the appropriate product updates when they detect issues, and adjust the rate of rollout as needed to assure all devices have the best possible update experience.

Microsoft is planning to roll out Windows 10 May 2019 Update v1903 to all customers in multiple phases. Newer machines are expected to get the update first. Once the update is offered to your device, you will see a notification that there is an update available for your computer. If you do get to see it, click on it and carry forward the upgrade process. But if you want to expedite this process, you have four options to download the Update.

 

  1. Manually frequently check if it is available on Windows Update
  2. Use the Media Creation Tool
  3. Use the latest Windows 10 Disc Image to download and install it
  4. Use Windows 10 Update Assistant. Check if the Update Assistant has been updated to offer Windows 10 October 2018 Update. 

Let us take a look at these options.
