Windows 10 1703 - PDQ Deploy
I'm having a hard time finding out if I can use PDQ to install/upgrade to 1703 on my Windows 10 machines. All my machines currently have 1607, but I would like to test deploy 1703 to a couple. I see (KB4015583) but is this the actual upgrade to 1703 or fixes for people that already have 1703.

It's great to hear that a simple cmd line makes so many admins happy :-).
I haven't look into a 1803 upgrade yet, it's to early.
But if someone use bitlocker read this blog:
https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/mniehaus/2018/05/02/new-upgrade-to-windows-10-1803-without-suspending-bitlocker/
1803 comes with a new command-line /Bitlocker
See if I can resurrect this thread. I'm trying to update many machines from a few different versions and everything seems to run until about the 30 minute mark and this happens
Command script returned error code -2147024809 when using quiet parameter but just runs and runs with the above cmd..
Watching the PC everything is running from the installer to updates then around 25-30 minutes this happens. Going to try to run it and get some logs...
Any help is appreciated!
This works for us (going to 1803):
Choose an install step and point the install file field to the setup.exe. Tick the include entire directory. Have this command line /auto upgrade /quiet /noreboot /ShowOOBE none /Compat IgnoreWarning /Telemetry Disable

Just came across this thread and am testing it out in our environment. This is much simpler than what I was trying to do using MDT. See https://github.com/OneWorldCHC/PDQDeploy-UpgradeWin10
For those using this setup.exe method, I would encourage you to use OSBuilder from David Segura to automatically inject the latest SSU, LCU, and LSU into your install media. It'll save time for the patching process. https://www.osdeploy.com/osbuilder/overview

Has anyone tested this with 1809 update yet?
Watching... (Am also wondering about upgrading machines 1803->1809...)
I haven't had much luck upgrading from 1709 Pro to 1809 Pro. It times out. When running manually get an error that the /Auto switch isn't recognised.
I need to spend some more time with this but it would be great if PDQ themselves created a package for upgrading....?
I have upgraded 4 1803 boxes to 1809 (pro) only issue i had was running Office apps for first time, Have to run them as administrator and also make sure user has access to C:\programdata\microsoft folder
I set the time out to 180 minutes an let the install reboot if needed.
Has anyone tried this with the new 1903? Do we have to jump to 1803 before we can do 1903, or can we just skip 1803?
i am trying the upgrade a couple pcs to 1903 i cant get it to work
