    MSFT now offers 1909 Feature Update on 1809 installs.
     
  3. I upgraded from 1903 to 1909 yesterday, around this time through WU.

    Edit: I misread 1809 as 1903.

    I need to get a general overview of how release 1909 is going.

    How is release 1909 so far? Is it good to go in production? No file deletion bugs like last year?

    It's just a 20KB update, not a full upgrade when on 1903.

    It's publicly available now.
    At the OP, download section, you can find, 18363.418 MVS ISOs, ESDs and UUP dump can create all you want.

    I just used that to create an 1909 Enterprise N iso (via selected Pro N and adding Enterprise N as additional). I then installed the ISO in VMWare Workstation but never got the option to select which version to install. It installed Pro N. Is it possible to convert that Pro N install to Enterprise N, or how I could install Enterprise N by default with the iso? Or should I just get the latest Enterprise evaluation iso and convert eval to full?

    Thanks for the clarity!

    You can run create_virtual_editions.cmd with this ini (don't delete the originally created iso):

    Set to replace ProN with EnterpriseN (1 index):
    Code:
    [convert-UUP]
    AutoStart    =1
    AddUpdates   =1
    Cleanup      =0
    ResetBase    =0
    NetFx3       =0
    StartVirtual =0
    wim2esd      =0
    SkipISO      =0
    SkipWinRE    =0
    ForceDism    =0
    RefESD       =0
    
    [create_virtual_editions]
    vAutoStart   =1
    vDeleteSource=1
    vPreserve    =0
    vwim2esd     =0
    vSkipISO     =0
    vAutoEditions=EnterpriseN
    
    Set to add EnterpriseN to ProN (2 indexes):
    Code:
    [convert-UUP]
    AutoStart    =1
    AddUpdates   =1
    Cleanup      =0
    ResetBase    =0
    NetFx3       =0
    StartVirtual =0
    wim2esd      =0
    SkipISO      =0
    SkipWinRE    =0
    ForceDism    =0
    RefESD       =0
    
    [create_virtual_editions]
    vAutoStart   =1
    vDeleteSource=0
    vPreserve    =0
    vwim2esd     =0
    vSkipISO     =0
    vAutoEditions=EnterpriseN
    
    you can add an ei.cfg to the ISO:\Sources folder, like this one, it will offer you to select the desired sku for installation, when you have more then one sku:
    Code:
    [Channel]
    _Default
    [VL]

    Question.
    I updated a friend's laptop (the one I mention above which went from 1803 straight to 1903 via windows update), yesterday, to 1909 and it got to build
    18363.476. Is that correct? Because the 1909 iso installs build 18363.418.

    The build is correct.
    The ISOs at the moment are made with the previous CU .418

    When being online while upgrading through ISO, the latest CU is downloaded and installed automatically.

    As I have said, I did not use the iso to update, just wu, but thanks for the info.

    Oh my, the install.wim on the 1909 is 4.3GB, won't fit on the FAT32 USB stick for me to fresh install.

    Then compress it to install.esd or split it into several <4000MB install.swm files.
