14 DAY TRIAL // Microsoft’s most recently optional cumulative update for Windows 10 version 2004 brought plenty of fixes, helping the company further improve the reliability of its latest operating system version.
And according to the software giant itself, there are only four more glitches to fix right now, after which Windows 10 May 2020 Update should become much more reliable, possibly becoming available for more users.
The company says that the release of cumulative update KB4568831 addressed several bugs in Windows 10 version 2004 – keep in mind, however, that this is an optional update, and all improvements that it includes will be part of the next update to ship on Patch Tuesday on August 11.
There are just four bugs that need to be fixed now in Windows 10 version, as it follows:
- Issues updating or starting up devices when aksfridge.sys or aksdf.sys is present
- Dragging with the mouse in some apps might cause issues for some IME users
- Errors or issues during or after updating devices with Conexant ISST audio drivers
- Errors or issues during or after updating devices with certain Conexant audio drivers
All of them are currently under investigation and could receive a fix rather sooner than later.
Automatic updates
One week ago, Microsoft announced that Windows 10 version 2004 was pushed automatically to devices that were approaching the end of service. In other words, if the Windows 10 version powering these devices was close to expiring, the software giant offered the May 2020 Update automatically via Windows Update.
“We are now starting a new phase in our rollout. Using the machine learning-based (ML-based) training we have done so far, we are increasing the number of devices selected to update automatically to Windows 10, version 2004 that are approaching end of service. We will continue to train our machine learning through all phases to intelligently rollout new versions of Windows 10 and deliver a smooth update experience. The recommended servicing status is Semi-Annual Channel,” the company says.
Windows 10 version 1903 and 1909 users can also trigger the update manually by checking for updates in Windows Update.
