    at this time it feels like Windows 10 Version 20H2 is quite stable on my laptop.

    The only bug that I found was that Gmail sync via the Mail apps was often late on my Windows 10. unless forced I manually press "Refresh this View" next to the Enter Selection Mode button.

    Great info Reno! Glad it's (mostly) working well for you. Thanks. 

    In researching, I did find *this* info  and it seems rather important for some users:  I copied from

    https://www.thurrott.com/windows/windows-10/241319/tip-install-windows-10-version-20h2-right-now

    Now that Microsoft has finalized Windows 10 version 20H2 you can easily install it ahead of its general release to the public.

    Doing so is mostly non-problematic:  Windows 10 version 20H2 is a minor upgrade over its predecessor with no major new features**,** and if you already installed that version of Windows, you can be done with this entire process in under 20 minutes.

     **There is, however, one reason you might not want to install 20H2 yet: If you are using Windows Subsystem with Linux (WSL) 2.0, there is a bug in the current 20H2 build that prevents it from working at the time of this writing. So wait until it’s fixed if you need WSL 2.0. *My comment:*D'OH

    From another site: Updated October 20, 2020 https://www.howtogeek.com/684812/whats-new-in-windows-10s-20h2-update-arriving-fall-2020/

    Windows 10’s October 2020 Update, also known as the 20H2 update, is here. This update is focused on bug and performance fixes, but it has some larger changes—like the removal of the System Control Panel. It also says:  If the update isn’t available for your PC, that suggests Microsoft isn’t confident it will perform well on your PC’s hardware yet.My comment to both: D'OH

    Microsoft is proud that this is the first version of Windows 10 with the new, Chromium-based Microsoft Edge browser included.

    I found myself laughing at some of the information in the article (i.e. statement above re: Edge.)   I suggest y'all read the articles, do your own further research and make your decision.  I'll be waiting awhile for that install until I hear more about it.... THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY.

    I'm hoping this shows MS moving in the right direction.  Wait and See.

    Awesome!

    Thanks for the infos Reno! 

    Is it stable using Windows 10 version 20H2?

    at this time it feels like Windows 10 Version 20H2 is quite stable on my laptop. I didn't even find any bugs and glitches on the TOSHIBA Satellite L645 Laptop. Powered by an Intel Core I3 350M CPU (First Generation Intel Core I Series). The driver also had no problems. Even a few days ago I cleaned temporary files instead using 100% disk in Task Manager was rarely less frequent.

    I've even tried Windows 10 Version 20H2 since August 24, 2020 via Join the Windows Insider Release Preview Channel.

    The only bug that I found was that Gmail sync via the Mail apps was often late on my Windows 10. unless forced I manually press "Refresh this View" next to the Enter Selection Mode button.
