Microsoft Resumes Rollout of Windows 10 Version 1809, Promises Quality Changes (zdnet.com)

Microsoft on Wednesday resumed the rollout of Windows 10 version 1809. The re-release of the so-called October 2018 Update comes more than five weeks after the company pulled the original installation files from its download servers and stopped its scheduled delivery through Windows Update. From a report: In a blog post, Microsoft's John Cable, the director of Program Management for Windows Servicing and Delivery, says the data-destroying bug that triggered that unprecedented decision, as well as other quality issues that emerged during the unscheduled hiatus, have been "thoroughly investigated and resolved."

    Microsoft Resumes Rollout of Windows 10 Version 1809,

    So, we don't have version control anymore; the "fixed" version number is the same
    version number as the broken version. Great... Indian engineers... Just sayin'.

    "Hey, did you install the 1809 update yet?"
    "Which one?"
