Hi All,


I'm hoping someone on list has run a Windows update from an external 
drive because I'm trying to do that, but I'm not sure how.


I bought a new netbook after my last one bit the dust earlier than 
usual. The new one is an Acer from a few years ago, so it's running the 
first version of Windows 10. I'm trying to update it so I can take 
advantage of the new features in Narrator. According to the Windows 
Update Assistant, the netbook is compatible with Windows 10 October 
2018, but it's still a little short on memory, even after I've 
uninstalled as much as I can.


The update Assistant says I can try running the update with a memory 
drive in the machine. When I googled around, I found instructions that 
tell me to run the Assistant and select the drive, but I'm not finding 
when or where to do that, so my attempts keep failing.



Any advice?


Ciao
