Microsoft starts testing fixed Windows 10 October 2018 Update

Microsoft re-released the free Windows 10 October 2018 Update to Windows Insiders today. The company also introduced a new feature in the Feedback Hub that lets testers provide an indication of the severity of a given issue.

Both are a direct response to users reporting some of their files were deleted after updating. Microsoft released the Windows 10 October 2018 Update on October 2 and then halted its rollout just a few days later after users flagged the data-loss problem. That was Windows 10 build 17763, which brought Windows 10 to version 1809.
