Change of message on Windows Update as regards 2004

Hi there folks,

Having previously been encouraged to download 2004 update from within Windows update (and subsequent failures to install as detailed on an earlier thread) I now get the changed message on windows update,

"The Windows 10 May 2020 Update is on its way. Once it’s ready for your device, you’ll see the update available on this page"

So is this just a general message or has Microsoft somehow got feedback from maybe a log created during failed updates to V2004 on my computer and pushed out the changed message to me?

I somehow doubt it, but thought I would just ask here.

Thanks a lot,
Joe

Thank you.

I had that message so I downloaded the iso and ran the upgrade that way and all was/is well on both my PC's

Basher.

I started a thread about the same "problem" a couple of days ago:
My PC was ready for 2004 update, but now it isn't anymore.

Not specifically your PC, but it would be due to reports from other machines with similar hardware and/or software.

Microsoft continually monitor the telemetry the get from attempted upgrades. If a new issue is discovered they will place a block on similar machines getting the upgrade until the issue is resolved.

hi, to add, i never had the failed update yet i have the same message on for some reason...

There has also been a change in how Microsoft handles attempted forced installs of the ISO on a system that has a block.

It will now stop the install, tell you your PC is not ready, and gracefully exit the installer.

can you elaborate on that? is it THAT bad and unstable?

a part from not ejecting properly usb3 hard disks and an odd lock screen when i click sleep mode, the 1909 i have now is really good, never crashes, etc. thank you
