Microsoft has started displaying a new warning in Windows Update on devices that can’t be upgraded to Windows 10 version 1903, or May 2019 Update, because of compatibility reasons.

As part of Microsoft’s release system, devices that are not fully compatible with a new Windows 10 feature update are not provided with the new version on Windows Update.

While the manual update is possible via Media Creation Tool or using a standalone ISO, Microsoft recommends users to wait until feature updates become available on Windows Update.

And because the wait is painful for users eager to try out a new Windows 10 version, the company has started showing messages in Windows Update to let them know that the latest feature update isn’t yet available for their devices.

“You can’t do anything about it”

As per WL, the message tells users that their devices aren’t ready for Windows 10 May 2019 Update, and the only option is to sit back and relax until it shows up in Windows Update.

“The Windows 10 May 2019 Update is on its way. We’re offering this update to compatible devices, but your device isn’t quite ready for it. Once your device is ready. you’ll see the update available on this page. There’s nothing you need to do at this time,” the message reads.

Microsoft already issues warnings to users trying to upgrade Windows 10 devices with various compatibility issues, and the company also set in place several upgrade blocks to prevent other bugs after the update.

Windows 10 May 2019 Update is now available for seekers, which are those users who manually check for updates on Windows Update. Additionally, the company has also started training its automatic release system to begin offering the update to devices running Windows 10 version 1803, or April 2018 Update.
