There are preview updates available for Windows 10 versions 1809, 1903, and 1909.
The update fixes several issues, including a bug that affected USB 3.0 hubs.
The updates are available now through Windows Update.

If you're on Windows 10 version 1909 or 1903, you'll receive KB4586819, which brings Windows 10 to build 18363.1237 and 18362.1237, respectively.

Here are the highlights for the update to versions 1909 and 1903:

Updates an issue that causes the Chromium-based Microsoft Edge browser to open in the background when a device is in tablet mode.
Updates an issue that causes Narrator to stop responding after you unlock a device if Narrator was in use before you locked the device.
Updates an issue with USB 3.0 hubs. A device connected to the hub might stop working when you set the device to hibernate or restart the device.
Updates an issue that might cause games that use spatial audio to stop working.
Updates the visual quality of Windows Mixed Reality headsets that run in lower resolution mode.

If your PC is on Windows 10 version 1809, you'll receive KB4586839, which brings the operating system to build 17763.1613.

Here are the highlights rolling out to Windows 10 version 1809:

Updates an issue that causes the Chromium-based Microsoft Edge browser to open in the background when a device is in tablet mode.
Updates an issue that causes the hard drive to fill up in certain error situations.
Updates an issue with USB 3.0 hubs. A device connected to the hub might stop working when you set the device to hibernate or restart the device.

You can read the complete list of fixes in the updates' respective changelogs.

Unlike the security update that rolled out to Windows 10 version 1809 earlier this week that required you to download it manually, these recent updates are available through Windows Update.
