Windows 10 users are notified from <em>Windows Updates <\/em>that a new update KB3116908 has been found (released 12\/02\/2015).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/IaAPvvR.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"495\" height=\"243\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The details page doesn't provide much more information what the update fixes. It states that the update fixes stability and issues.<\/p>\n<h3>Microsoft's \"details\" \u2026<\/h3>\n<p>Microsoft already released a KB3116908 description <a href=\"https:\/\/support.microsoft.com\/en-us\/kb\/3116908\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cumulative update for Windows 10 Version 1511: December 2, 2015<\/a> that won't discuss further details:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>This update includes improvements to enhance the functionality of Windows 10 Version 1511.<br \/>\nWindows 10 Version 1511 updates are cumulative. Therefore, this package contains all previously-released fixes. If you have installed previous updates, only the new fixes that are contained in this package will be downloaded and installed to your computer.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Because it's a cumulative update, what will be patched depends on the previous system state. And Microsoft recommends that you install any language packs that you need before you install this update. Also a reboot after install is required.<\/p>\n<h3>If the update don't arrives<\/h3>\n<p>I've seen several users complaining that the update never arrives. There are several issues that prevents systems from updating.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Update KB3116908 requests Windows 10 Version 15111 \u2013 people still using build 10240 (Windows 10 RTM), due to upgrade issues, won't see the upgrade.<\/li>\n<li>As far as I know, cumulative update KB3116908 is send out in waves, so it may takes a few hours to arrive.<\/li>\n<li>Ah, and some people are using \"privacy tools\" like O&amp;O ShutUp10. That may block the update. A good cure is: Reset O&amp;O ShutUp 10 settings and uninstall that tool.<\/li>\n<li>Users of Windows 10 Pro has an option to defer upgrades in <em>Windows Update \u2013 Advanced options <\/em>within the <em>settings <\/em>app.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<blockquote><p>BTW: If you ever installed a Pro version on a machine and Windows 10 Home is installed during updates (I've had this situation, and it has also been posted in German MS answers forum), you can upgrade to Pro for free. I've documented it within my German blog post <a href=\"http:\/\/www.borncity.com\/blog\/2015\/11\/16\/windows-10-pro-v1511-erneut-auf-oem-systemen-aktivieren\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Windows 10 Pro (V1511) erneut auf OEM-Systemen aktivieren<\/a>.
