So far 20H2 has installed fine on my older Dell E4300 which frankly surprised me.

Looks like they finally released a patch for the crash/restart issues some people were having with Win10.

Recent cumulative updates for 20H2 have been fine with no issues. Even the bug fixes for some recent issues are having no issues at least with my systems.

Theyve gotten their act together a bit as they dont try to install updates that could conflict with one another. Now they get sorted out and installed at separate times.

Appears some of the recent updates have caused additional BSOD issues and problems with some webcams. In my case everything is fine.

Updated my just purchased Dell E7470 and MS has really cleaned up the updating method. No more bottlenecks because some updates try to prioritize themselves and jam the install of the other updates. Conflicts are being avoided and it goes far faster not to mention this laptop is hugely faster than my other ones.
Win10 I have to admit recently has become a much nicer experience.

Cumulative preview update is out for 2004 and 20H2 today and so far no issues. It fixes a lot of the recent problems many had with the last cumulative update.
