Windows 10: Hardware compatablity hold issue Version 20H2 Build 19042.630

I am trying to install the 64 bit OS and am enountering a hardware compatabilty hold as shown in the pdf attachemnt. i am wondering if I purchase a new license and do a clean install on my Samsung SSd if I am going to have the same problem or am I going to need to get a different ssd and new license or wait until MS fixes the problem

I cannot find 20H2 Build 19042.388 (KB4565503)

This warning is only for Dev channel builds (195xx or 20xxx) and 20H2 is older build 19042.

My Windows 10 Insider preview build is expiring soon

You can get 20H2 only doing clean install with released version v2004, build 19041 and set your PC to get previews in Beta channel.

If you want to stay in Dev channel and get rid of that warning you have to update your system.

- Go to Settings / Update and check updates or

- Download build 20175 ISO and use it for in-place update.

Download Windows 10 Insider Preview Advanced

In future I recommend to use Insider forum.

Can't upgrade Windows 10 build 19042.330 to 19042.421: not supported directory or lower version

Do you have download some unofficial ISO? Your issue is caused by how 20H2 preview is made.

When you turn your PC to Beta Channel to get 20H2 preview only small CU, KB4562830, (20H2 Enablement package) is used to change build number from 19041 to 19042 and version number to 20H2. Setup files on your 20H2 ISO's are still basically build 19041. If
you do clean install it will automatic inject that KB and eventually you get 19042.421 installed.

BUT: If you try in-place update with ISO then update program see installed build as 19042 and can't keep old apps and files. It's not possible to downgrade version / build numbers.

Why don't you use Windows Update?

It's possible to update from .388 to .421 manually, but you have to find latest KB4568831 from somewhere. When you have that KB make some folder, save it there with small script.

On my case I have D:\Update with that KB and script Update.bat.

Open CMD as Admin go to that directory and run Update.bat
