The new Windows 10 update helps users check if their device is compatible with the new version! Microsoft added the new feature to the May 2020 Update , with the aim of helping users.
Upgrading to the new Windows 10, which was released twice this year, has always been a complicated issue for Microsoft users . This is because Microsoft uses a tiered approach to its products. It releases new versions gradually, to a small portion of its user base, rather than to its entire audience .
Starting with the Windows 10 May 2020 Update, also known as Windows 10 v2004, Microsoft has made significant progress in reducing the confusion surrounding updates. This time, it added a clear message to the new version, letting users know whether their device can support the upgrade now, or will be able to later.
«The Windows 10 May 2020 Update is coming. We're offering this update to compatible devices, but your device isn't ready yet. When it's ready, you'll see the update available on this page. There's nothing you need to do at this time..»
Users who receive the above messageare advised to wait until Microsoft develops a new version. Last week, the company said it had identified at least 10 issues with the current version of Windows 10, which began rolling out last Tuesday.
For the impatient, there are of course other ways to gain access and bypass the process, such as using Microsoft's "Media Creation" tool, a not-so-good idea.
While the new update is slowly rolling out to more and more users, Microsoft uses a gradual rollout approach to identify bugs. Note that this way it prevents the spread of such problems, and limits them to a small number of users.
Of course, such processes have always been opaque to the general public, as most people simply click the "Check for updates" button, without any feedback.
