    Resolved [RESOLVED] Update to version 2004

    I have received the following notification for windows 10:

    Feature Update to Windows 10 version 2004
    The next version of windows is available with new features and security improvements. When your’re ready for the update, select “Download and install”
    Download and install

    Will windows do this automatically if I do nothing? It hasn't done so yet.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated,
    Brian

    Ver 2004 came out in May 27, 2020 and is safe to let it install automatically.

    Ver 20H2 came out in Oct 20, 2020 and if your machine see’s it, I would hold off for 3 months before accepting the download. Microsoft likes users being their test and reporting people.

    It will eventually install automatically. Unless you are wanting to use one or more of the new features that it has, I would not recommend clicking on the Download and Install link. You are not getting paid by Microsoft to beta test their updates. If you do decide to manually install it, you may want to consider making a backup image of your system, just in case something goes wrong.

    Hi COPO
    I have had the notice for Ver 2004 for some time and did try to install it about 2 weeks ago and it failed to install. I got the following message when I did so:
    Failed to install on ‎10/‎13/‎2020 - 0xc19001e1
    I have just received a notice the Ver 20H@ is ready to install and I have no intention of doing so for 3 months at least but thanks for the heads up.
    I am still concerned about Ver 2004 and am wondering if Windows will eventually install it automatically?
    Many thanks for your help and best regards,
    Brian

    I am still skeptical however and if I don't do anything what will happen? Will windows force the install anyway?

    Just wondering!

    Hi jdc2000,
    Thank you for this. It appears they will force the update on me eventually.

    Regards,

    Hi jdc200 et al,
    I'm happy to advise that Microsoft successfully installed Version 2004 overnight.
