My own personal notes.
You do not have to rush out to get it.  Do so when you are ready.
This is an optional update thru Windows Update.

Though if you already have a older version of Windows 10 you should really get this release build.

 

Tip for those doing a clean install   ( perhaps later on when ISOs are available).

If you have a Premium MBAM, before starting the clean install, do a DEACTIVATE of the license in MBAM first.

Then after all is finshed, you can re-ACTIVATE the license.

other notes from MS:
( for those that have a prior build of Windows 10 )   Most updates automatically download and install when they're available. However, if it has been less than a month since you upgraded to Windows 10 from a previous version of Windows, you may not be able to get some updates right away. This is so you can go back to your previous version of Windows.

The amount of time it takes to download updates can depend on a number of factors, including connection speed, network settings, and download size. Make sure that your PC is plugged in and connected to Wi‑Fi or Ethernet in order to shorten the amount of time it takes to download updates.
