You can see the complete list of new features included with the Windows 10 Creators Update here. Are you still have some questions about what the Creators Update is? If so, you should read this previous guide. Similar to previous releases, Microsoft plans to start the rollout on April 11th, but no everyone will get it the same day. Instead, only a select group of PCs, laptops, and tablets to be known to work with the update will be getting the update first. Then when the update has gone through more testing, Microsoft will continue the rollout with other devices. This means that if your device isn’t seeing the Creators Update, it’s likely because the update is not ready for your device. However, you’ll still be able to force the update using the Media Creation Tool to do an in-place upgrade or the Windows 10 Update Assistant. The update will download and install automatically on device, but if you’re not ready to make the jump, or you want to avoid the usual initial problems, you can defer features updates using this guide.
