Windows 10 version 1809 finally available for business

The October 2018 Update for Windows 10 is finally ready for deployment in businesses, Microsoft says.

Microsoft is now confident that business users can upgrade to Windows 10 version 1809, October 2018 Update. Although the feature update was originally released on October 2, 2018, due to a bug that caused data loss to some users the company was forced to halt the rollout.

Then after several weeks, on November 13, 2018, the feature update once again began rolling out, but only to a limited group of supported devices, and now, starting March 28, 2019, almost six months later, Microsoft has updated its Windows 10 release information website (via ZDNet) to note that the October 2019 Update is ready for enterprise deployment.

The news comes just weeks before the company completes the next major refresh, Windows 10 April 2019 Update, which is the update that will eventually replace the October 2018 Update.
