Hi Lapetinap, What kinds of data and programs did it remove? The system on which I experienced the Creative sound card issue has literally hundreds of programs installed, and about 20TB of disks hanging off of it, but the only issue I ran into was the sound card.
CREATIVE LABS SB0770 INSTALL
My recommendation is if you need to move to 1903, do it from a clean installation then install all your programs then copy your data files over. After losing all my data and half of my installed programs after installing 1903, I was fortunate enough to restore to that point prior to 1903. In my opinion, if you need to move to that build, definitely back up all data and ensure that you have all your installation disks for all your programs and have a current backup before you start. I have not used that sound card at all however, I have found that 1903 breaks and deletes a tremendous amount of data and programs. Have you run into a problem with your Creative sound card? Have you found a solution? I'm shopping for a new card for music production and just all around good specs, so if you're into hi-res audio and do music production, I'd like to hear your experiences. I have an X-Fi Elite Pro, and admittedly it's a transplant from an older PC into my current one that is circa 2012, so these sound cards aren't exactly new, but they still work and have excellent specs compared to most on-board stuff. I can't say it won't be fixed, but it does not look promising. The conversation has since fallen silent.

A week later, a Creative representative was apologizing for the delay saying that Microsoft had really been making a lot of changes under the hood with the sound subsystem. Windows 1903 blows away the Speaker output device and some input devices including What You Hear.Ībout a month ago, Creative said they'd be issuing updated drivers in about a week.

Heads up if you have a Creative Labs X-Fi series soundcard.
