From the Blog:

In the current environment, we know that you continue to rely on your PCs more than ever. As a result, we are initially taking a measured seeker-based approach to the rollout of the May 2021 Update. We are throttling availability up over the coming weeks to ensure a reliable download experience for all, so the update may not be offered to you right away. Additionally, some devices might have a compatibility issue for which a safeguard hold is in place. In these cases, we will not offer the update until we are confident that you will have a good update experience.

    @Leprechaun J

    Yes, a very oh-hum upgrade. Why is it called a feature upgrade? Nothing here to rave about.

    Hi lintekPC,

          Yes I agree it doesn't seem to be any difference in Looks with the GUI. But However there are a lot of Fixes and Tweaks going on under the hood. I believe this to be the Pathway to Build 21H2 which will have A totally NEW GUI with plenty of New features. I also believe that Everyone should Upgrade to the  New Build 21H1 as soon as possible. I've Now installed 21H1 on Seven different PC (Makes & Models) and had Zero Problems with any of them so far.

    Enjoy Everyone

    Run services.msc then scroll down to Windows Update, click on it, at Startup type change to Disabled or Manual or Automatic, click OK at bottom, get out, then restart.

    What good would going through this process bring about? MS THINKS they own our systems and therefore, will eventually push the update out again. The question I have, where are the steps to take total control AWAY from MS pushing updates onto my system?
