How to manually download the Windows 10 October 2018 Update

Microsoft today started to push out the free Windows 10 October 2018 Update. As always, this will be a gradual rollout, meaning not everyone will get the latest and greatest Windows 10 update immediately. Microsoft will slowly ramp up the release via Windows Update starting next week, but there’s no guarantee when you will get it. If you don’t want to wait, you can get it by forcing Windows to update right now.
