1809 must be go through Preview Ring first
or it’s just a couple of days delay

I sure hope they put it through Release Preview. It’s nice to see the team using that ring the way it was intended.

I’m on Release Preview, but didn’t get any update for 1809 when checking yesterday/today so far.

By Jove, somebody at Microsoft reads their own documentation! Bravo….

(Seriously, it’s a very good sign, IMHO.)

If your a home user of W7  you don’t need the previews.

I’m a bit relieved that these aren’t visible to WSUS. I’ve had very good luck with the February patches on Win 10 1803xyz and 7, and the thought of having to start testing another update so soon gives me the twitches.

They stopped publishing Windows 10 non-security Cumulative Updates to WSUS since 1709 or so

but some or sometimes all of them are released as Dynamic Updates (i.e. for upgrades), you should see them if you had that category checked

just recently saw this on Born’s blog site today:
https://borncity.com/win/2019/02/21/windows-10-v1809-update-kb4482887-as-release-preview/

looks like MS has recently released KB4482887 for Win10 v1809 (their “C” patch) on the release preview ring. KB4482887 may get released publicly early next week

edit: Deskmodder.de has the cab download links from MS for KB4482887

looks like KB4482887 did not get released publicly in February.

that’s ok as I was only beta testing this patch on a test machine with v1809

So my 1803 workstations detect the 2019-02 CU KB4487029 as need but only when I bypass SCCM/WSUS. Its needed on the 8% of machines affected here, which is quite a few.

The WSUS server at the backend of the SCCM server does not even download the update, even after a manual re-synchronize. My download classifications include Everything except tools, drivers, and feature packs so it should be detected as an update or update rollup at this point, shouldn’t it? Its not evening happening on a clean build of the latest WSUS

Very frustrating! Thoughts appreciated!

Don’t you just love Windows 8.1, it got transparency notification

Windows 8.1: Review your location settings

If users choose “Express Settings” when they install Windows 8.1, the Location Services feature of Windows is enabled. These users may not be aware of this default configuration. This notification draws attention to the Location Services feature so that users can disable it.

Wuh?

This is for the Monthly Rollup Preview – which presumably will become standard behavior in the March Monthly Rollup? Absurd.

(Thx, @PKCano.)

Yes, those who skip Preview Rollup will get the notification with March Security Rollup

i already disable that features, so i didn’t get the notification
