Outside of the normal Patch Tuesday schedule, Microsoft is now rolling out update KB4476976 for Windows 10 version 1809,October 2018 Update, to fix a slew of problems with the latest version of the operating system.
Microsoft released the KB4476976 cumulative update for Windows Insiders in the Release Preview ring, containing Action Center fixes for the Windows 10 Version 1809 release it pushed to customers on October 2.
Windows 10 Cumulative Update KB4476976 Now Available for Version 1809
On January 8, Microsoft also released new cumulative updates for Windows 10 version 1809, version 1803 and version 1709, as part of company's monthly Patch Tuesday cycle, featuring general fixes and security improvements.
Microsoft released the second wave of Windows 10 cumulative updates for February earlier this week. While these updates were made available for various versions of the operating system, there wasn't one available for the latest October 2018 Update. It appears the Windows maker is currently testing the Windows 10 cumulative update for version 1809 through its Insiders community.
The Release Preview ring is designed by Microsoft to iron out any last minute issues before releasing updates to the public. Since the release snafu of the October 2018 Update that brought a number of issues with it including some data loss problems, users have been asking Microsoft to improve its QA process. Windows 10 October 2018 Update was made available to the public without it first passing through the Release Preview ring. Microsoft has since tried to test Windows 10 cumulative updates through this ring before delivering them to the public.
Each cumulative update will be compared in the own build version, with the oldest update as the baseline. This way it shows if there is an impact with newer updates. The updates have been downloaded and installed individually on a clean Windows 10 release. As the cumulative updates include previous updates, only the latest cumulative update is installed. No additional updates for Microsoft Office 2016 have been installed.
Windows 10 1809 shows a consistent increase in CPU utilization as the other versions show a small difference. Although the increase is small it would be important to keep track to ensure it is not climbing with newer updates. This way capacity issues can be avoided.
The results show there is only a minimal impact on the overall capacity when installing cumulative updates. As the capacity limit of GO-EUC lab environment is CPU related we did notice a change in storage activity for both Windows 1809 and 1803. The improvement is only noticed in reads/sec which results in a lower hit on storage resource utilization.
I'm getting this same error message on Enterprise 1803 linked-clones, but I'm not able to install the Jan 22nd update KB4476976, because it tells me it's not applicable (I assume because it's for version 1809). The last update installed was the Jan 15th KB4480976.

Before installing some cumulative Windows updates, you must first install the latest available Servicing Stack Update (SSU). This update can be found in the Windows Update Catalog using the following search query:
Now before you tell me "you always have to use a clean image" for each build update, that is NOT what Microsoft's own documentation tells you. See: -us/windows-hardware/manufacture/desktop/sysprep--system-preparation--o... - specifically: "Beginning with Windows 10, version 1607, Sysprep can be used to prepare an image that has been upgraded."
My Win10 version is 10.0.17134. The last update that was offered and installed is KB4493437 (and Windows Update check says no further updates available) and I have no issues at all building WEC7 kernels (and neither any problems building WEC2013 kernels).
Windows 10 October 2018 Update[1] (also known as version 1809[2] and codenamed "Redstone 5") is the sixth major update to Windows 10 and the fifth in a series of updates under the Redstone codenames. It carries the build number 10.0.17763.
The first thing that you could do is try to check that the update is compatible with your windows and also with your processor architecture. You can go to the Microsoft Update Catalog by clicking here and then using the search on the website to search for the name of the update that you are trying to install, if it is compatible with your windows then you could follow the steps below to see if you have a compatible processor architecture to install that version of update. 2ff7e9595c
