Every time I’m starting a new Windows 10 deployment project, I need to know which Windows 10 ADK is installed on a server to use with MDT or SCCM. The Windows 10 ADK (Assessment and Deployment Kit) has the tools you need to customize Windows images for large-scale deployment, and to test the quality and performance of the system, the added components, and the applications running on the system. At the time of this writing Windows 10 ADK Version History was not easy to find.

How to find your Windows 10 ADK Version

In Program and Features, all Windows 10 ADK are referred as Windows Assessment and Deployment Kits – Windows 10. The only element that defers is the build version at the right.

Windows 10 ADK Version History

Each time, I end up googling the version number but the information was not easily findable. Those days are over since I will be documenting Windows 10 ADK Version in a beautiful table until Microsoft decide to include the build number in the name of the product… which could be never…

Hey Jonathan, Want to add 2004 to this list? Also, would it be a good idea to add a line about 1909, more specifically how Win10-1909 uses ADK-1903. Something to that tune? Cheers, Tricky

So if I am running Windows 10 v.1803 with mdt, currently deploying win10 1803, do I want to upgrade to ADK v.1809? Or if I have a win10. .1709 running mdt, deploying win19 v.1803, will I still want to upgrade my adk to the latest (currently 1809)? Just wondering if upgrading the adk on older windows versions of Windows will screw up anything in regards to mdt. Do we always want to update ADK to the latest no matter what version of win10 we have & no matter the version of win10 MDT is deploying? Or do the ADK versions need to match?

so what if the environment have a multiple windows 10 build numbers, and the current adk installed with SCCM is 1709 so the only version of windows 10 should be use is 1709 or ADK 1709 will support older version of windwos 10 such as 1703-1607 and so on.

I would assume that previous Windows OS (client) versions continue to be supported when you are running the latest "server components" (SCCM and ADK). With that said, my concern is staying compliant with the Microsoft matrix documented below: Support for Windows 10 for System Center Configuration Manager https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sccm/core/plan-design/configs/support-for-windows-10#windows-10-adk In parallel with that, keep an eye in the "What's New/Change" session in every ADK release to know the resources that are "new, deprecated, removed, etc.".

Hi, yeah Microsoft doesn't provide a lot of flexibility here... The overall idea is to stay up to date. I do understand that is easier said then done, but that how Microsoft want it. :S Jonathan

Hi Benoit, I got the ADK 1709 release note from Michael Niehaus on Twitter just an hour ago. I came here to let you know about that update, but you were faster than me! lol Thanks a lot for keeping this reference updated. It is very handy and I enjoyed this information last week while upgrading to CM 1706. Cheers! Julio

You should definitely add something about backing up any customized XML files used by USMT before uninstalling any version of the ADK from your server.

Hi Cristopher, We are reworking a part of the How To update Windows ADK post. We'll add a note about USMT XML files thanks Jonathan

Great list! The SecureBoot driver-bug is now fixed for 1703 ADK, and the patch is available at: https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/configurationmgr/2017/04/14/known-issue-with-the-windows-adk-for-windows-10-version-1703/

Thanks that's good to know. I will probably still wait to the fall ADK. I usually skip a release.

Is the 1703 ADK deemed bug free? I know 1511 was a disaster but 1607 went by fine. I really hope they add a way to SCCM to update the boot image once you install a new ADK.
