1909 update for a Surface Pro 4

Hello all,

Should I be worried that I am trying to “seek” 1909 on a Surface Pro 4 and I am not seeing the update. I remember in December seeing it as an optional update, but it isn’t there now. Am I paranoid and shouldn’t worry about it?

    <p>What are you on now? My Surface Pro 3 is on 1809 and I've gone to settings numberious times looking for 1909 or 1903 to no avail. </p>

        <blockquote><em><a href="#514337">In reply to rtodd_us:</a></em></blockquote><p>That is not how it works. I have several machines (an older HP Elitebook 8470p, HP envy 750-124, Dell Venue 8 Pro 3845. and SP4) all are running 1909 and the SP4 is the newest machine.</p>

          <blockquote><em><a href="#514501">In reply to lwetzel:</a></em></blockquote><p>Any idea why I am not offered 1909? I even did the refresh pc. Might go clean install if I still can't get it I guess</p>

            <blockquote><em><a href="#514567">In reply to rtodd_us:</a></em></blockquote><p>I know that in the past the update files and directories can get out of whack. There a methods if you search online of how to fix that. I'd try what JustMe suggests.</p>

    <p>My SP4 is on 1909, happened a while ago. It's definitely supported.</p><p><br></p>

    <p><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">My SP3 is supported, so I cannot fathom why your SP4 would not be. I have never figured out the 'secret sauce' that allows you to get Windows automatically as to date, it has not happened for me, even when I went out and 'sought' it. I ended up going to the Microsoft Windows 10 download site and it asked me if I would like to run the Update Assistant, which I did and that seemed to work for me.</span></p>

    <p>The Windows Update Troubleshooter has helped get me out of install problems in the past. It's not universally effective, but I would try it first. (Assuming, of course, you haven't tried it already, in which case I apologize for mentioning it.)</p>
