Windows 10: Second batch of September 2019 updates available
Microsoft released the second batch of updates for most supported versions of the company's Windows operating system on September 24, 2019. The company released security updates for all supported versions of Windows earlier this month.
Cumulative updates are available for Windows 10 versions 1607, 1703, 1709, 1803 and 1809; the Windows 10 version 1903 update has not been released yet and it usually takes a week or more before that happens as it undergoes an extra round of testing before release.

All updates include the recently released Internet Explorer security patch that fixes an actively exploited security issue of the web browser.

I see some fixes regarding waking from Sleep. I hope they’ll soon fix it, because it’s currently broken on 1903, on my system at least.
*is the comment subscription system gone?
I had to roll back the last update because it disabled my start menu and edge. I hope they “addressed ” that issue.
KB4515384 also caused the “Critical error – The start menu stopped working” on my main machine on 1903, so I had to uninstall it (but not on three other machines that I handle, weird).The problem is, M$ says it’s not their fault.

Honestly, I’m sick of W10. Windows is getting worse by the month.
Thanks @Martin these articles are very useful. I recently use links to download these patches.
>Windows 10 version 1809
>Fixed an error that caused the Calculator app to close when selecting the Converter
It’s fixed o.O I cannot believe, they have actually fixed the Win32 calculator in LTSC. View > Unit conversion no longer kills the process and it works as expected, switching to convertor.
These mid-month matches are actually more interesting than the security ones, they are actually doing something to the OS. It’s already for the second time I’m seeing a long-standing issue being fixed in these kind of patches, this year alone. Really nice.
hi Martin.
1903 just got their new (and 3rd) cumulative update this afternoon on Thursday Sept. 26 – KB4517211 (build 18362.387)
https://support.microsoft.com/help/4517211
Thank you!
Error 0X800f0988
The trick %windir%\SoftwareDistribution rename does not solve it
restart services WU (wuauserv, cryptSvc, bits, msiserver…) does not solve it
dism.exe /Online /Add-Package /PackagePath:C:\*.cab or *.msu does not solve it
I hate them!!
