Revision 33 of the update now available for download
KB3150513 is an update that has been re-released several times so far and it is currently at revision 33, which means that Microsoft keeps refining it as it makes the Creators Update available for more systems.
Availability of the Windows 10 Creators Update depends on a series of factors, including compatibility issues reported by users who get it, so Microsoft can decide at any given moment that the release for specific systems could be suspended.
The main role of KB3150513 is to make sure that systems are ready for the Windows 10 Creators Update, so most likely, its re-release means that Redmond is ready to kick off another stage of the rollout after successfully completing bugfixing.
“This update provides the latest set of definitions for compatibility diagnostics that are performed on the system. The updated definitions help enable Microsoft and its partners to ensure compatibility for all customers who want to install the latest Windows operating system. Installing this update also makes sure that the latest Windows operating system version is correctly offered through Windows Update, based on compatibility results, ” Microsoft explains in the description of the patch.
KB3150513 is released to systems running Windows 7, Windows 8.1, and Windows 10 prior to version 1703, though it’s worth noting that some prerequisite updates are also needed, as you can check out in the box after the jump.
On the other hand, if for some reason you don’ t want to upgrade to the Windows 10 Creators Update just yet, this is one of the patches that need to be blocked, though you should really consider installing the new version as soon as possible given the security improvements that it brings.
