Microsoft released -- the missing -- cumulative update KB4476976 for Windows 10 version 1809 and Server 2019 yesterday evening to the public.
The company released cumulative updates for earlier versions of Windows 10 days ago but decided to test the update for Windows 10 version 1809 in the Release Preview ring before its official release.
Microsoft changed its strategy in regards to cumulative update releases for the latest version of Windows 10 after the update fiasco of Windows 10 version 1809. Instead of releasing cumulative updates outright, like the company has done on older versions of Windows 10, it is pushing updates to the Release Preview ring first before releasing them.
In other words, another round of testing and -- hopefully -- bug finding before the update is unleashed on the general population.
KB4476976 is available on Windows Update and as a direct download on the Microsoft Update Catalog website. Windows administrators who install the update manually need to make sure that the latest Servicing Stack Update is installed on the device.

Installed this morning, all fine here for the moment. Thanks @Martin.
No, let MS perform first perform a proper test, and report on proper working, before I will give it a try.
Ultimately, I may decide to install this update, a week before the next 2019April update is released, to prevent confusion with the next update.
Checking for updates installed a .NET preview, but NOT the CU!
Will think twice before listening to Woody again…
Don’t knock Woody. He has no control over how MS updates function.
If Microshaft did its job, there wouldn’t be all the problems with Windows.
You should let WIndows look for updates on its own. Checking for updates marks you as a free beta tester.
No more manually updates for main Windows 10 pro 1803 build 17134.523.
Automatically otherwise the system today upgraded (Update) Silverlight (KB100347).
This Silverlight upgrade/update did not change the build update number.
But I have a concern because Microsoft is nog succeeding to upgrade there o.s. from the build 1803 to the build 1809 is this BSOD wise a problem?
I mean the software from not Microsoft programs is updated to the build 1807 and because of this could this makes your build 1803 more crash?
The update resets the toast modifications, so if you had disable, you have to reapply the fix.

Today was the 3rd time Microsoft pushed KB4023057 to my Windows 10 1803.
I just uninstall the current KB4023057 and install the new update.
It’s still not proposed and I don’t dare to install it manually
1809 Enterprise and KB4476976 will crash DirectAccess connectivity. o connection at all.
Removed KB and all was fine. Re-Installed this KB and loose DirectAccess connection. Twice same behavior.
I’m on 17763.316 and still having the issue that causes some symbols to appear in a square box on a text control.
HELP!!
