This depends a lot on the site you are downloading from. I haven't had this kind of problem in a long time. And IDM has constant updates to fix these things. Test again with the latest version.
I haven't kept my self completely up to date with 1909, but 1903 + enablement package isn't really the "full" 1909, is it? I mean don't get me wrong, it will be eventually but the 18362.100xx builds are the one with certain changes that have not reached 1903 yet, i think? At least that's how i understand it for now, 18362/3.xxx is nothing but regular 1903, while the .100xx builds are the ones with new changes that eventually will be merged with 1903 to make it "1909".
18362.10022 has got no updates nor follow up info lately, when on 18363.3xx the .388 CU is in the retail release ring (public).
My WSUS console sees machines which have installed the enablement package as still 18362.xxx instead of 18363.xxx, but there's an ongoing issue where they forget to change the WSUS-seen version number about 70% of the time when a CU is released.
AFAIK, WSUS version shows the version of wuaueng.dll there is not any file released that is versioned 18363, it's just registry version
To be fair, for me it's about a 20K enablement package and a reboot or two. A clean install ISO is just a couple less things to do in my deployment environment. The other thing I noticed, which could just be an image creation thing, is 18363's install.wims are *way* larger than 18362's install.wims. It's not slight. Even the boot.wim for 18363 is almost 20% larger than an 18362.
How could it be larger, all the updates are the same, the 1909 enablement package adds just 20kb to the wim.

I made my own clean install ISO. My post was referencing the unending requests to the psychic hotline when MS will release this or that. When it's not that serious. All of the bits are already here in their underwhelming glory. It's the same story every 6 months. It'll begin anew next spring when we get a meatier release.
I know, which is why I said it will begin anew next spring when we get a meatier (IE: larger, more robust, substantial) release.
1st you have to join the Insiders Beta Program BEFORE you get access to the Rings. There are 4 Rings (Skip Ahead, Fast, Slow, Release Preview). If you have NO experiance running Beta Software, This Is Not For You. There is a chance you could loose Data & have to clean install your Laptop.
Interesting, 18363.388 is considered Beta Software? If yes, what is the latest WIN10 non-Beta Software version (aka official & stable & for the common user)? P.S. Seems I lost data already from an auto-update via WU (Windows Update) from 18363.356 to .388 (?). Didn't quite check what updates it decided to download and install. Folders were missing from C:\ and WIN10 refused to boot. I had to re-install the entire OS.
