Starting with Windows 10 October Update, RSAT is included as a set of &#;Features on Demand&#; in Windows That means you do not need to download an RSAT package now. Instead, on your Windows 10 computer, go to &#;Manage optional features&#; in Settings and click &#;Add a feature&#;. You will see the list of available RSAT tools. Select and install the specific RSAT tools you need.

Suppose that I require only group policy management tool, I can simply select Group Policy Management Tools and install it. Most of all the advantage of installing it via Features on Demand is that installed features persist across Windows 10 version upgrades.
