New Windows 10 udpate.
August 15, 2016 at 8:28 am
It won't show-up in my list of updates, and I am unable to find any information online, other than to download the ISO and install manually, which I do not want to do.

Any other ideas?  Anyone get it to install?  It supposedly came-out nearly 2 weeks ago.

Yeah, it installed automatically just like every other patch.

I tried the automatic install, the machine re booted, froze, re booted again then said it was reverting to the original OS!
I downloaded the ISO, tried it on a virtual machine, didn't like it, far too much crap I don't want or need, but now when I check for updates on my main machine the anniversary update isn't shown. Maybe they have taken it off to fiddle with it??

That's encouraging.  From what I have read, Microsoft is pushing the update to newer computers first, then the older ones.  Not sure how they can tell the difference, but it's coming-up on 2 weeks and my computer is only 3 or so years old.
