Microsoft has released its second new build of the Windows 10 April 2018 Update, bringing six fixes and a resolution for the boot problems affecting PCs with Intel and Toshiba SSDs.
The new update KB4100403[1] moves the Windows 10 April 2018 Update, or Windows 10 version 1803, to OS Build 17134.81. Users can check for updates in settings or get the package from Microsoft Update Catalog[2].
