Windows 10: Windows 10 May Update on Mac Mini 2012 Model

So I was loling on youtube (means watching tech videos or something else) and I came across the new windows terminal video and I was amazed by the the new terminal looks and its features so as a developer I wanted to try it and screw around with it.As per the requirements I needed visual studio 2017 and above with some extras if using a newer version, Windows 10 1903 sdk, Developer mode enabled and windows 10 may 2019 update.

So I had a already existing installation of windows on an external hard drive but it was full and therefore I decide to install windows alongside my mac (but I did no use bootcamp assistant because bootcamp did not want to make the usb stick and therefore i used a windows 7 laptop [which i did not want to update] to make the USB stick and i partitioned the hard drive and I installed it) now I was on October update and when i tried to update via insider build after the update after 2 or 3 minutes windows will crash with the error code WDF violation so i reverted back to 1809 and it worked.Today I got the news that the may 2019 update has been released and I tried to install it and the same thing happened after the update was complete it did the same thing revert back to the build 1809 so anybody please tell me why is it happening or it is a bug that is there in this build


it is a 4gb ram core i5 model


Thanks and regards

Apple Updates the Mac mini

Fair enough, it's still better than a HD 5000 though. The point is that it's just like every other time Apple updated the Mac Mini. It's not a bad deal for your typical user who wants an Apple product.
