Update from Windows 1607 to 1809 using PowerShell

Question

I was wondering if there are any relevant documentation explaining how we can do the windows update using dism powershell module.

I want to update from windows 1607 version to windows 1809. Or is there any other way to do the update of windows using powershell apart from manual installation of windows 1809.

I tried using PSWindowsUpdate Powershell Module, but failed to do the windows feature update using this module. However could do the Windows cummulative update using the same.

I am very new to this area, but familiar with Powershell. Can anybody recommend the right path for me?

Answer 1

It depends a lot how you want to do it. Do you want to update a local computer ? And directly 1607 to 1809 without going through all other version (1709 as exemple) ?

The easiest would be I think to make a dism and to install each "big update".

1. 1703
2. 1709
3. 1803

What do you use the computer for ? If you have some "special" application, it could be a good idea to do it for each version and test that everything works.

Hope it helps
