I upgraded from 17758.1 build to this one successfully . At first' I thought it was not possible to upgrade from "fast" to Skip Ahead at this stage
I noticed they added "metadataesd_" to editions ESD file names, the conversion script would not be able to detect them uup-converter-wimlib v19 is up this does not fix the issue with downloading UUP files
I have bad news for now. Even aggregated metadata seems to be encrypted, so effectively I can do absolutely nothing.
I had to jump thru a few hoops to get this WU installed, incl. GSoD. 1-2 of the hoops probably were caused because I was playing w/ the mouse (not that one).

Many people are reporting a BIG Memory leak in Windows Update while trying to download 18237. WU is calling for more Memory than the PC has. Anyone seeing this here ?
