Anyone with 2012 and newer Aspires -- my E1 above a 2014 model -- still not received Windows 10 Version 1809? In its official Win10 1809 rollout blurb, Microsoft made a point to "encourage" all but certain advanced users "to wait until the update is offered to your device."
Per Microsoft's ML model, a bi-annual major update is withheld "If we detect that your device has a compatibility issue." Curiously, my modest 2012 Aspire Z1620, an EFI hybrid unit, received 1809 months ago. And the ML model has been shown to be far from trustworthy.
Thanks,
Bill

    Failure to receive the update does not indicate that this model is not supported! If you choose to update windows, I suggest you back up your files and update windows here: https://www.microsoft.com/pt-br/software-download/windows10

    Thanks, Balatekie. I'd forgotten about that list, which indicates ACER never tested the E1 series. Ironically the unit never experienced any of the troubles many others have had with Win10.  Which is what's made this inability to get 1809 puzzling. Though I believe egydiocoelho is correct that I should go ahead and simply install it.  It's been more a curiosity than an issue, as I prefer Linux and Android with Win10 meant to be an unused extra O.S. for the E1.

    Thanks, Balatekie. I'd forgotten about that list, which shows ACER never tested the E1 series for Win10. Ironically the unit never experienced any of the troubles many others have had with Win10 builds and updates. Which is what made inability to get 1809 puzzling. Though I believe egydiocoelho is correct that I should go ahead and simply install 1809/1903. Although I prefer Linux and Android, I'm keeping Win10 until end of support as an extra O.S. for the E1.
  • That list shows the models that have been tested. This does not mean that you can not install the latest version of windows 10 on your notebook. I have the v3-571 model, which is also not in the list and I can always update windows normally!
