Now that Windows 10 May 2019 Update is available for download, Microsoft can focus on providing users with the extra pack of applications that typically come alongside a new OS feature update.

 
The Media Feature Pack, for example, has recently been updated with support for Windows 10 May 2019 Update, so it can be downloaded on upgraded devices as well.

Technically, the Media Feature Packis specifically aimed at systems powered by Windows 10 N, a dedicated Windows 10 version that comes without any media features. This means Windows 10 N not only that doesn’t feature apps like Windows Media Player, but it also lacks other tools relying on Windows Media files, including here Cortana, Windows Hello, and Windows Mixed Reality.Download links updated with version 1903 supportThe Media Feature Pack is thus supposed to address this setback by bringing all necessary files to Windows 10 N.

“This update provides support of media features in Windows 10 N. These include media-related technologies (Windows Media Player) and certain preinstalled media applications, such as Groove, Movies & TV, Voice Recorder, and Skype. You have to install additional software from Microsoft to have this communication functionality stream music play or create audio CDs, media files, and video DVDs; and take and store pictures,” Microsoft says.

The Media Feature Pack can be installed on Windows 10 just like any other application, albeit you should keep in mind that a system reboot is required to complete the process.

Microsoft recommends users to install additional apps from the Microsoft Store to benefit from all the goodies that the Media Feature Pack brings, including Skype and a series of codecs that should enable the playback of media in apps and browsers.
