If the new feature update is not currently showing up in Windows Update, then go to the Download Windows 10 page, and click on the Update now button. Doing so will download the Windows 10 Update Assistant -- a small 5.9MB file.
Save and launch this and then click the Update Now button. It will check to make sure your PC is compatible in terms of CPU, memory and disk space, and then download and verify the files needed for the update.
You can minimize the program and leave it running in the background. Once everything is ready you can choose when to start the update. It’s in-place upgrade, so when Windows reboots your files will be exactly where you left them.
