You may have gotten the KB4338548 Windows Update on your computer. This update bumps the version number of the operating system from Build 17134.81 to Windows 10 Build 17134.83.
So, what’s new in the Windows 10 Build 17134.83 Cumulative Update? As you may have guessed from the very slight change in the build number which indicates there are not many fixes, this is not a very important update, at least for most users.
