Support Assist installation fails, no internet connection

Yesterday, Oct 2, 2018, I came home to find I had an electrical outage. When I restarted my desktop computer, Dell XPS 8920, Windows 10 with all updates, I realized my Support Assist was no longer on my computer. When I tried to reinstall it I got the message that there was a problem, no internet connection. I know my internet is working but every time that I have tried to reinstall it I get the same message.

Hi cat0W, Can you check your OS details by running "WINVER" command on command prompt. We have one open bug with Windows 10 Build 1803 where SupportAssist is not getting install due to some windows drivers. We are working already working with Windows team on this issue but there is no ETA for fix till now hopefully it will get addressed by Nov / Dec 2018 release cycle.

Mine disappeared from my Dell Laptop this afternoon while I was using it. No update was made to Windows 10. I tried to reinstall Support Assist but  I am getting the same message on it. It has Windows 10 Home, Version 1803.
