Hi, In the past, Microsoft gave you recent Windows 10 releases without intervention. This changed in 2018: Microsoft will not update you to more recent feature updates such as 20H2 unless your system is running a release that’s about to lose mainstream support. As of time of this post, this applies to Version 1909, so it won’t be long before people using 1909 will be prompted to upgrade to at least 2004 through Settings/Update and Security/Windows Update. Cheers, Joseph
