      Ah, optional updates…

      so they started restoring old Windows Update behavior, figure of speech

      Zac Bowden at WindowsCentral has more information also – Microsoft is making significant changes to how it tests Windows 10 with Insiders. Not the least of which is that according to his sources the 20H2 version of Windows 10 will be a minor release ala 19H2.
