Upgrading windows 10 pro 10240 to build 10586

[Frayed_Sanity]

So I just finished upgrading to windows 10, but I am using the older 10240 build/version.

I learned that there is now a newer version available as of novermber last year which is 1511(10586) build. I did some searching and found the iso for it, but wanted to know some things about it which I cannot seem to get from google.

I have downloaded windows10_x64_1511.iso or something like that. Doesn't say pro in the filename. I wanna know if I can update my existing windows installation with this image or do I NEED to download the pro version? I kind of hoped the update would tell what version you had....

The Upgrade to 10586 should just happen naturally. You don't need to do it through the ISO or media creation tool.

You just finished upgrading to 10. Give it a little bit to catch up, and you should get the 10586 upgrade.

Yep.

As said, NO NEED to do anything other than verify Microsoft Updates is set to "automatic".

Start->
Settings->
Windows Updates->
Advanced Options->

*You can force updates to check for latest at the Windows Update window. If downloading a new build version that may take a while but it will tell you when you restart or after the pre-set time interval (will prompt to reboot if you go two days or whatever after an update is made available).

**Current BUILD version is under "Start->Settings->System->About"
