Karlston Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Microsoft is throttling availability of Windows 10 20H2 Despite Windows 10 20H2 only being available to seekers currently, Microsoft is still being quite cautious about its roll-out.

As a result, the update may not be offered to you right away. For more details, see How to get the Windows 10 October 2020 Update. Microsoft may be waiting to see if any more issues pop up.

steven36 Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 This is nothing new they been doing this every since they released Windows 10 1809 October 2018 update that was full of bugs into the wild and pulled it and re-released it in NOV 2018 only 1 in 10 users had it Jan 2019 . They should of been doing this since 2015 but they released TH 1 like 6 months early and sent out (GWX) malware to Windows 7 and 8.1 to roll them over to Windows 10 it caused many people to stop doing updates even causing a security risk years before they ended support for Windows 7 then Malware with Virus started showing up like Wantacry and Peta and lots of people got infected and tell this day lots of people are still getting infected from not doing software updates anything that uses the internet they can find a hole in. People who upgraded in 2015 was having issues with Drivers way back then Vendors were not even ready for it. Now people who took the free upgrade M$ is blocking old hardware's drivers now that the vendors drop support from being installed. I'm not a fan of Windows but some of the stuff Microsoft does to there users is amusing. It makes me glad i switch to Linux . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BimBamSmash Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Reasonable move, especially for those who are still using 19H2 or earlier builds, considering all the hiccups of 20H1. For those already on 20H1 though, it is just a 80 MB update file, which you can manually apply. It is remarkably straightforward. Details can be found at TenForums.
