LangaList: How to move a recalcitrant machine to Win10 version 1809 and “no-format reinstalls” of Win10
Two big ones from Fred Langa’s bottomless bag of tricks….
If you want to get to Win10 1809 – just to bide your time before Win10 Great Unknown version 1903 hits the stage – there are some ways to blast through the blocks.

Details in this week’s AskWoody Plus Newsletter 16.14.0, out this morning to AskWoody Plus Members.
