Microsoft chips away at the issues causing it to block the Windows 10 May 2020 update for some PCs.
Microsoft has released an optional update for Windows 10 version 2004 that addresses a long list of bugs affecting the functionality of PCs, including several driver issues that caused Microsoft to block the feature update on some machines. This update brings a fix for an issue in certain LTE modems that prevented devices from reaching the internet after updating to Windows 10 version 2004, also known as the Windows 10 May 2020 Update. Microsoft fixed a similar problem in the optional update for Windows 10 versions 1909 and 1903 earlier this month. The new preview update, KB4568831, brings Windows 10 version 2004 up to build 19041.423. It’s also the precursor to an update due out in mid-August that should allow Microsoft to lift compatibility holds on devices with drivers from Nvidia, Intel and Realtek, which were discovered to have problems immediately after Microsoft released the feature update.

Microsoft also notes that 4K high dynamic range (HDR) content was being displayed „darker than expected when you configure certain non-HDR systems for HDR Streaming“.
