Microsoft halts Windows 10 October 2018 Update

Microsoft has halted the free Windows 10 October 2018 Update — Windows 10 build 17763, which brought Windows 10 to version 1809. The decision comes less than a week after the October 2 launch, after some users reported the update deleted files from their Documents folder.

Like all Windows 10 updates, it was a gradual rollout, meaning not everyone would get the latest and greatest Windows 10 update immediately. Microsoft slowly ramps up major Windows 10 updates via Windows Update, although you can also download the Windows 10 October 2018 Update manually.
