margotr · Jun 22, 2020

I have an old computer and nervous it is taking many hours to download version 2004. Can i simply close out and wait until all fixes are in? I am reading there are issues. It is now on 94%. I am afraid of getting the dreaded black screen that i used to get -

How to get the Windows 10 May 2020 Update version 2004

I have today downloaded 2004 to my PC from win update assistant as it was not showing on win update. It downloaded and installed okay and everything seems to be working. when i checked update history the page was blank not showing any new updates and has deleted all past updates I checked update and programs and it is not showing there I then checked system and it is showing there with same details as my laptop that downloaded from win update it is also in my program files is this a normal thing to happen when you use win update assistant

Yes, this is normal. All updates you received before the upgrade to 2004 are no longer relevant and are removed from the Update History and Control Panel's list of installed updates. You are effectively starting afresh with a new OS, the update history for your previous OS is now irrelevant.

You will not see the feature update in Update History either, only updating through windows update will add an entry like this one....

Windows 10 SDK for Windows 10 version 2004 build 19041 now available

The Windows 10 SDK for Windows 10, version 2004 is now available with a go-live license. Build 19041, also known as the Windows 10 May 2020 Update, is now in the Release Preview Windows Insider ring.

New APIs and Features for developers

Every Windows 10 update is loaded with new APIs, but don’t worry, Windows Dev Center has a full list of what is new for developers.
In addition to the new APIs, check out these updates to the app model, MSIX and WSL.

Windows Subsystem for Linux: The Windows Subsystem for Linux 2 is the latest and greatest version of WSL. It has significantly faster file IO performance (up to 20x faster) with full system call compatibility, meaning you can run more of the Linux apps you love (like Docker).

Hosted App Model: Applications can now declare themselves as a host for other applications via the new HostRuntime extension. These hosted apps look and behave like independent apps and can have deep Windows integration, even though they get their main executable from the host app. This technology powers PWAs on Microsoft Edge. To get started using the Hosted App Model, see this blog.

Sparse Signed Packages: Applications can now include a signed MSIX package in their existing installers and have their installers register it. This allows applications to keep their existing installers but still assign themselves identities. An identity makes the app known to Windows and allows for a more deeply integrated experience by enabling the app to call Windows APIs that require identities such as Tiles, Toasts, Notifications and BackgroundTasks. To take advantage of Sparse Signed Packages, see this blog.

Update your dev environment in two simple steps today

The first step in updating your dev environment is to update your system to the Windows 10, version 2004 (by using the Release Preview Ring). The Insider team has a great blog post that will walk you through how to get on the Release Preview Ring.

Then, go into Visual Studio 2017 or 2019 and grab the new SDK, and you’ll be good to go. Once version 2004 goes to general availability in May, the SDK will become the default SDK inside Visual Studio.

Today, with Windows Insider Release Preview for Windows 10, version 2004 Update:

Run the installer or go to Download Visual Studio 2019 for Windows & Mac and download it.

Go to “Individual Components.”

Go to “SDKs, libraries, and frameworks” section.

Check “Windows 10 SDK (10.0.19041).”

Click “Install.”

When the Windows 10, version 2004 goes to general availability:

Run the Visual Studio installer, or go to Download Visual Studio 2019 for Windows & Mac and download it.

Select “Universal Windows Platform development” under Workloads — Windows 10 SDK (10.0.19041) will be included by default.

Click “Install.”

Which workload should I choose?

Do you want tools for C++ desktop or game development for UWP? Be sure one of these two are selected:

C++ Universal Windows Platform tools in the UWP Workload section

Desktop development with C++ Workload and the Windows SDK 10 (10.0.19041)

If you want the Universal Windows Platform tools, Select the Universal Windows Platform tools workload.

Once your systems are updated and recompiled and your app is tested, submit your app to Dev Center.

How to get the Windows 10 May 2020 Update version 2004

Hi,
Yeah guess it's a insider build or something I mounted a iso made by media creation tool.
I have no third party interface apps just plain win-10
Did kill all apps except store with Shawn's reg file...
Minimalist for sure I don't need all the oversized app icons I have everything on desktop so just apps list is needed.

Well, something you have changed or removed must have allowed the Search to take the place of the All apps list on your Start in 2004. This seems to be unique to your configuration, all others including myself have reported that Start remains the same as they had it configured in 1909 after the upgrade. That does make it very difficult to diagnose though *Sad

An added factor may be that the RTM version of 2004 as released by MS on 27 May appears to still be configured as an Insider build. This was spotted by CliffS here.

An interesting find.
On all my PC's that were updated using an ISO created with MCT, show up in AIDA64 as Insider Preview builds*Eek

...and subsequently confirmed on my 2004 Home that was updated by clicking the optional 'Download and install now' in Windows Update.

So my advice would be not to try 2004 again until for at least a couple of months, maybe longer - and definitely not until it has been offered to you in Windows Update.
