ΤIn the last two days, some users have gone ahead and installed it updated version of Windows 10 October, complained that personal files were deleted from their document files . Microsoft had not started uploading the update automatically through Windows Update, and as it found Techdows , has canceled receiving the update from her site .
Currently the latest version available for download is the old October update, and on the support page there is the following message.
Microsoft:
We have stopped the development of the Windows 10 October 2018 update (version 1809) for all users as we investigate individual reports of users who have lost some files after the update.
In Reddit have found that you can still download 1809 if you need it, for checking or just curiosity (but make sure your backups are up to date - make regular backups, right?) by this link . This is a worrying situation for Microsoft since faced also problems with updating spring earlier this year.
update : In case you are wondering how this error occurred, the Rafael rivera via a Tweet gave some screenshots of the reports showing the problem, and which was published in the Microsoft Feedback Hub for Insider beta testers.
There are tons of reports in Feedback Hub about data loss on upgrade, not painting a particularly nice picture...

So it seems that because this problem affected relatively few testers, these reports were ignored and once again the update was distributed, but this small percentage began to represent a larger number than initially thought, with the result that Microsoft eventually moved on. in revocation of the upgrade.
