The newest version of Windows 10, i.e., May 2020 update is officially released on 27th of May, this year. You can finally upgrade to this new version if you’re running on Windows version 1903 or 1909.

There might be a possibility that the update is not available to download in your system. That’s because Windows slowly rolls out major updates. First, it offers a smaller number of PCs and tracks the version’s performance.

Microsoft looks for any bug, performance, or blue screen problems before they roll out to every Windows 10 PC in the world. No worries, if the update hasn’t appeared on your system, you can still install Windows 10’s May 2020 Update.

Microsoft doesn’t recommend you do so as you can wait for the stable version to rollout which will work correctly on your PC.

In this post, we will guide you on how to upgrade and install the May 2020 update using two methods. If you face any issues with the new update, the steps to uninstall is also provided.
