Win10 – Get Auto-Login Back

November 13, 2020, 08:19(EST) By Eric (a.k.a. TweakHound)

Win10 20H2 removed yet another setting. I guess this is Microsoft’s attempt of protecting users from themselves. Yes, auto-login is a security risk. But that’s our business, not Microsoft’s.

Windows 10 Version 2004 “Released”

May 27, 2020, 15:45(EDT) By Eric (a.k.a. TweakHound)

How to get the Windows 10 May 2020 Update
Windows 10, version 2004 known issues
What’s new for IT pros in Windows 10, version 2004

Neowin – Windows 10 version 2004 is here – here’s what you need to know about it
The best breakdown I’ve seen so far.

Site after site saying 2004 is “available for everyone”. I’ve been checking since 1300hrs and nothing. Some say the Media Update Tool is working for them, some say it quits part way through, some say it supplies 1909 instead.

* edit – Media Update Tool worked fine for me. Download, extract with 7-zip, click setup.exe, done in 10 minutes.

user Amir reports:
Also https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/news/valorant-game-ready-driver/ released for full support with Win 10, 2004.
