KB4023057 while on Win10-2004

[anonymous]

I am currently running windows 2004 build (19041.685).  I got a windows update notification to install KB4023057,  which is Microsoft’s push to the next operating system version.   Since I am on a current version of Windows, I believe I should not be getting this notification.   Am I correct about this assumption?

I currently get all my updates using Powershell update and have KB4023057 blocked and will block this update with Windows Show – Hide Updates.

KB4023057 gets offered again and again. The next feature update  is 20H2 which is available and installable now. Unless you are beta testing, hide KB4023057.

I got the same thing today when I logged it via a notification from WU. Promptly ran wushohide to hide it and waiting for WU to run another search for updates in another 22 hours to get KB4023057 off its list.

WU automatically scans for new updates every 22 hours by default unless you tweak a few different settings in gpedit related to running an update server on your network (kinda like WSUS) and then you can change the default interval from 22 hours.

I’ve been on 2004 since I bought my two new computers from a mom and pop shop nearby this past August. Today is the first time I’ve ever been offered KB4023057, so I guess that in MS’s “opinion” I’ve been on 2004 long enough that it’s “time to move me along” to 20H2. I do plan to make the move, but not until later next month after 20H2 has had just a little more time to bake in the oven.

Bob99, try WUMT, and you can scan dor available updates (it uses the WU engine). Then you can hide or install as you please.

Instead of waiting, I just used the technique described by @PKCano in AKB2000013. Worked like a charm, update queue is now missing KB4023057, and I didn’t have to wait for WU to scan on its own! YMMV.  🙂
