It is supposed to be being offered as an Optional Update to 'seekers' who use 'Check for Updates' from Windows Settings - I'm not getting it offered that way yet though.
It is now the version on the Update Assistant or if you create media from there, - but as that means doing a full reinstall rather than an update then it will take a lot longer if you choose to go that route.

That's what I have to do every time they have a major upgrade, it never offers a streamlined process to me anymore. Although having a full installer on a USB Flash Drive is actually wise.
But for me it's not hidden, or even showing 'Optional', although it is below a line with a 'Download and install' button so not automatic.
I'd forgotten that they'd done that hiding thing for optionals, maybe I'd permanently turned it off when they started it?
I'll do it later, it's getting near pub time now and there's a few other things I want to do first (including a data backup before installing the update).

Quick and painless.

Same for me on my 2 systems. Offered & installed quickly. No problems.
