  2. Feature update windows 10 20h2 recently installed and I am not an insider

    No, Every thing seems normal. In fact I did not even know this was installed until I went into Settings to check on the firewall settings. I looked at the installed list to see if anything installed would give me a minor firewall error. That is when I
    noticed Feature Update Windows 10 20h2 was installed. After I fixed the browser firewall error everything has been great.

    Thanks for your help.

    Update History is not showing v.20H2

    Hi Dominic

    I am Dave, an Independent Advisor, I will help you with this . . .

    This is normal behavior in Windows 10, typically when you install a Feature Update like 20h2, the update history is wiped, this is to prevent the user from trying to uninstall an update that was prior to the Feature Update, which would de-stabilize Windows
    10, the list should start building again, when some updates are applied to version 20h2 . . .

    Why is the feature 20h2 feature update is taking forever to install?

    Installing Windows Media Feature Pack...

    OS: Windows 10 Pro N, 64-bit, version 20H2 (OS Build 19042.685)

    The Windows Media Feature Pack includes Windows Media Player (WMP) as an optional app, since Windows 10 version 2004 I believe. As such, installing the semi-annual updates removes the previous version of WMP and the updated version is not installed by default.

    Installing WMP seems simple enough, via "Settings\Apps and Features\Optional features\Add a feature", except when it is not. After trying to add Media Feature Pack feature, it display a blank list:


    Why is the feature 20h2 feature update is taking forever to install? [​IMG]


    The image above should have a list of available apps in alphabetical order, but it's blank. Searching for the apps in the empty list obviously results in nothing found.

    The system in question has local accounts only, no MS account, has internet access and receives MS and other software updates without any issues.

    Does anyone have an idea as to why the optional feature list is empty? I am lost for the reason...

    TIA...
