Where is 20H1 update ?

nIGHTmAYOR · 12 May 2020

usually those rolled around month 3 while second half of the year release rolled around month 9 with , of course the corona virus slows everything down but shouldn't they at least mention something somewhere about where they stand from this update ?

Your right , no word yet. I would expect sometime in the next 2 weeks it will be available to "seekers", those who go to Updates and click Check For. General, I would expect by the 28th.

This is all factual hearsay and totally my opinion, so it must be right or wrong.

it's already gone to release preview 19041.208, so won't be long.

The most plausible current rumour is 28 May....

I hear OEMs now are set to get the code May 5; developers on May 12; and general availability is slated for May 28. Again, Microsoft has not announced this officially and these dates may change yet again.

I forget where I read it, so many articles read over last few days, but apparently Microsoft have marked their calendar for 26th - 28th May as reserved, the article writer assumes this is when the feature update will be released. If I can find the article I will link it here.

Found it :

Your Bleeping Computer link quotes Mary Jo Foley's ZDnet article as their source , the one I linked to in post #3. She seems to have reliable contacts, so we'll just have to wait and see....

But will we be able to upgrade directly from 1903 to 2004 WITHOUT having to install 1909 ?

Hmmm, May 28fh? Guess I’ll go extend the WU pause until June sometime.

Yes. You can skip as many versions as you want. I have in the past upgraded from the original version 1507 (build 10240) straight to 1903 without any issues.

It should be an Optional Update. No need to pause updates for that purpose. You may have other reasons.

Yeah. I’ve become rather busy “staying at home” and just don’t want to deal with Windows right now. Just don’t want to spend time fixing something that might get broken. “Oh yee of little faith”
