Update Microsoft Windows to version 2004 - Windows 10 May 2020 Edition

Microsoft Windows 10 May 2020 Edition (version 2004) is available now, free for update from existing Windows 10 to version 2004.

It is also free for upgrade from eligible older Windows 7, 8, 8.1 to this Windows 10 May 2020 Edition.

Existing Windows 10 users can search for this update in Settings > Windows Update > Feature Update and click on it to start the update process.


If you are not able to find the update there, you can also perform a manual update by downloading the Windows 10 Update Assistant from the link below:
 
https://www.microsoft.com/en-au/software-download/windows10

 
Just run the downloaded file and follow the step by step instruction to complete the update to Windows 10 May 2020 Edition.


 
Please take note of the following:
  • This update will download a large number of files from the Internet. It is best to run when your computer is connected to a fast and stable network with unlimited data plan or free WiFi.
  • The entire update process will take about 3-4 hours. Therefore, it is better to run it over the night while you go to sleep.
  • Windows 10 Update Assistant will create a folder in C:\Windows10Upgrade with a lot of files, consuming a lot of storage space. The best way to safely delete this folder after successful update to Windows 10 version 2004 is by uninstalling Windows 10 Update Assistant. That folder will be deleted along with the uninstall process.
  • There will also be a very large C:\Windows.old folder after the update. You can find it under Settings > System > Storage and click on it to delete it safely.
