That means Windows Updater has installed up to version 1803 on your machine - but not the latest version 1809 which is required by Enhance Details.

The artificial intelligence built into the Windows Updater has determined that your machine configuration may not give you an optimum experience with version 1809 and so it has not installed 1809.

You can install 1809 manually using the links provided by others here. Then you can use Enhance Details.

Actually the major Windows updates are delivered in what a Microsoft calls a rollout. In a rollout updates are parsed out to particular computers in some poorly defined order. Not everyone gets the update at the same time. Typically beta testers get them first, after that???

The automatic update in Windows will not be notified that such an uodate is available until it is your computers turn.

Not sure how many computers are picked on any individual day.

This is all about not overtaxing the servers at Microsoft, and allowing any errors that come up to be limited in scope of customers.

Last October this updated In fact had a major issue. And Microsoft pulled the release.

This 19 January, Microsoft started the rollout again. Although they are going slow. On purpose

You are not forced to wait. A link was provided on the how.

Not an Adobe employee so probably should not protect them from abuse by customers mad at them for releasing an update requiring a OS update that most non I.T. Savvy customers have no clue on.

That's true for Windows users who need Windows ML introduced in 1809 to use Enhance Details.

Mac has had Core ML 2 (required for the Enhance Details feature) in its operating system since mid-2018.

So Adobe could have rolled it out to Macs and held it back for Windows - which would have also generated howls of protest.

What would you do if you were in Adobe's shoes? Roll out the new feature when both platforms were 100% ready? Not trying to create an argument. Just looking at it from a wider perspective.

ML, eh? Functionality of ANYTHING in adobe's suite that has any kind of dependency on the OS itself is SEVERELY flawed. So what would I do if I were in Adobe's shoes? Not utilize something that isn't part of the suite itself. Not create features that depend on the OS having a certain functionality built in. THAT is the smart thing to do. It doesn't matter how great it might be, it is a flawed idea to depend on anything outside of your own suite, aside from typical OS functionality.

Thank you, you are right. I will read about that update and decide if I will install it. It´s not that I absolutely need the Enhance Details function, but I am curious...

As 99jon said, you need Win 10, v 1809.

Microsoft has not made that update available to everyone yet. Google "Win 10 1809 install" and there will be links on how to do it manually. I had to do that here on my two main PCs.
