Here’s how to manually download the Windows 10 Creators Update right now
As promised late last week, Microsoft has made the completed Windows 10 Creators Update available to manually download a week before the general rollout.
No longer in preview, or available only to Windows Insiders, any licensed Windows 10 user can download and install the update.
All you’ll need to do is head to this Microsoft website and download the newest version of the Upgrade Assistant. After following those steps you’ll be able select Update Now to get things underway.
The manual download route comes before Microsoft begins rolling out the update on April 11.

The Game Mode is also of great interest to PC gamers as it will enable them to devote more of the CPU/GPU resources to gaming activities.
The Microsoft Edge browser will handle tabs more efficiently, while Night Light will reduce the amount of blue light you’re confronted with during the evenings, hopefully leading to a better night’s sleep.
