I'm not sure what "update assistant" means, but I opened the Settings for Windows Update, and manually told it to check for updates, and it refused to give me anything. I wasn't waiting to be forced, I was proactively seeking an upgrade that all their blogposts said had rolled out a year ago. I googled for that phrase, got to https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/windows-10-update-assistant-3550dfb2-a015-7765-12ea-fba2ac36fb3f https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/windows-10-update-... , which said that Update Assistant does automatic updates (which I already have), and that if I want to manually do updates I should look at https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/update-windows-3c5ae7fc-9fb6-9af1-1984-b5e0412c556a https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/update-windows-3... , which tells me to do what I was doing for a year. Maybe there's some nuance I'm missing, though, I'm not a very competent sysadmin, especially on Windows. Anyway, as far as I can tell all this means that they're knowingly writing false statements, also known as "lying", in case I was too subtle. Now, maybe their lies are reasonable. A rolling release makes sense, to detect bugs in smaller segments of the population, and manage them. And maybe they have some reason to believe that my moderately old hardware still has driver issues that need ironing out, or something, I don't know (the hardward in question is an expensive-ish highish-perf tower, but it's not that recent). Managing horrifyingly multiplexed complexity across a billion hardware vendors is literally the main value that MS provides, so I don't really want to second-guess them. After all, this is why I'm wanting to use WSL. But the fact remains that their marketing about when things will be available is full of false statements about availability dates.
