How to get the Windows 10 October 2020 Update version 20H2 Win Update

Got tired of waiting and used the Enablement Cab, two PC's done in under 5 minutes, not bothered about the task manager start up issue, already have that issue on my Insider PC and I use Process Explorer anyway.

Installed latest 20H2,Windows looks no different than the last build

But my Task Manager StartUp tab is working , I think, can search for it, all the tabs are there inc Startup.
... Am I missing something....

Yes, what you are missing is this: Although the Startup tab is there (and is functional in that it lists the names and can disable/enable them) the 'Start-up impact' column is broken, it never gets updated. It will usually say 'not measured', though if you do see any number there they were measured before upgrading to 2004/20H2 and will not be measured again.

If you add the 'Running now' column then it will be empty, none of the items that are actually running will be shown as running.

My Start-up tab under Task Manager lists None, Low and Medium does not say Not Measured.

It will be stuck on showing that and will never be updated, those results are carried over from 1909 before upgrading to 2004/20H2.

And does your 'Running now' show anything at all? If you haven't got it showing, then right-click on the title of any column to add it.

Yeah it is stuck at the same numbers, just tried a reboot after taking note. Oh well everything else seems ok.

Yes, it takes a bit of work to even notice it, and as you say everything else is OK. It's not critical for me, so I'm going to ignore it and keep my 20H2.

Keep in mind that MS is slowly migrating management features to the "Settings" app and this issue may well be related to that migration work. See "Settings > Apps > Startup" for where the Startup tab items are now located. It could well be that the Startup tab is in the process of being...what is the current buzzword for it..."desiccated"...

The problem I have with them migrating to Settings app is they lost half of the data you can get off older control panel, like Programs and Features, there you have multitude of column data (Publisher, last installed, version, size etc) and you can add more. The Settings has limited scope right now.

Thanks for that Mr Steve :)
But my Task Manager StartUp tab is working , I think, can search for it, all the tabs are there inc Startup.
Also under 'msconfig' search run as admin Startup tab is there with the blue Open Task Manager link to go to TM (been that way for long time)..
Am I missing something, above is working on 7 pcs, and yes I ran CAB File as WU live was not working on 4 of them for 20H2 updates after 2 days.
But what else is new...:)
Grump old man = me.

In order to be working, all the data in the Startup tab should not remain static between power ups like it did for two power ups with 20H2 as shown in the first screenshot of KB4562830 Enablement Package Feature Update to Windows 10 version 20H2
The second screenshot shows fresh data after I installed the 20H2 Enablement KB and powered off/on again.

Note that all the columns in my screenshot are not enabled by default - you have to click near a column heading to enable/disable columns.
