Microsoft will soon begin delivering the Windows 10 October 2018 Update. This is the official release of Windows 10 version 1809. If you don’t upgrade now, the update will arrive via Windows Update in the next few months. And that is how we choose to start the new month.

However, the upgrade won’t occur right away. Windows 10 runs on more than 700,000,000 monthly active devices. Based on historical trends, it takes several months for the update to reach the full installed base. For example, the April 2018 Update took about 6 weeks to reach 250,000,000 Windows 10 devices.
