Microsoft released the optional updates KB4571748 and KB4566116 for Windows 10 versions 1809, 1903 and 1909 on August 20, 2020.

The preview updates are non-security in nature and designed for testing purposes (both for administrators but also Microsoft who collects Telemetry data). Most users should wait for the official release of these updates on the September 2020 Patch Tuesday.

Microsoft did add support for WSL 2 in Windows 10 version 1903 and 1909 in this release.

It is best not to install these updates on production machines, and to create system backups before the updates are installed.

Note that the updates are listed under optional updates in the Windows 10 Settings app under Update & Security > Windows Update.

The preview update for Windows 10 version 2004 is expected to be released next week.

    All I know is KB4566116 installs then uninstalls saying it cant be installed on this PC.
    Windows 10 1909. Every time I turn on the machine it wants to install this update. I cant hide it because the troubleshooter to hide this just tells me its not for this version of windows. Endless update problems.

    “Microsoft suggests to upgrade to the new Chromium-based Edge browser, to use IE11”
