Why am i stuck on windows build 10240???

[Windows Central Question]

I have tried just about every method out there!

I have been getting the automatic downloads and restarts since I purchased the computer and never once did I question it.

Then I hear about this "anniversary update" and all the new features and I think "well I want that, lemme get it."

Turns out I'M STILL ON THE SAME VERSION THAT I WAS WHEN I PURCHASED THE FREAKIN THING! Also, when I check update history, THE DAMNED THING HASN'T UPDATED A SINGLE TIME!

i dont know whats wrong with your system , but i can show you a way to get Anniversary update . Download Media creation tool, make a bootable disc and when you boot from disc it will give to 2 options > upgrade your computer & >fresh install. choose whichever you prefer .

OR you can use the update utility form the microsoft website to force update your system to AU

Media creation tool will get you the latest AU update build i.e. 14393.10

I am yet to boot from another disk, I have only tried the "upgrade PC now" option. I'll update on how it goes!

*Download the ISO with Internet Download Accelerator or IDM , having pause | resume feature.

Need further help?!
