Microsoft recommends against using the Media Creation Tool to install Windows 10 November 2019 Update
Table of contents:
It may not have been an update that has raised a lot of news, but if you look at Microsoft's recent track record with the latest versions of Windows 10 released, this absence may even be good news We are talking about the November update of Windows 10.
And it is that Windows 10 November 2019 Update does not bring a lot of new features (they are reserved for the 20H1 branch), it is true, but on the other hand and for now, we are not finding news regarding failures that are generated when users install said update.For now, only some computers with certain Re altek Bluetooth drivers are giving problems and Microsoft warns about it.
Better wait
In fact, we already saw in the past that although an update can be forced, from Microsoft they do not advise carrying out this practice and recommend waiting for the update notice to arrive automatically to our team. All the more reason to avoid problems like the one at hand.
And the fact is that some computers with Re altek Bluetooth drivers are having problems with Windows 10 November 2019 Update. It should not be of major importance, since the system determines before the analysis if there is a conflict and if so, it stops the update. This is done following the normal rhythm.
But if the update is forced, this process does not occur and therefore failures can occur.And as an example, they cite those users who make use of the Media Creation Tool, through which an ISO of Windows 10 can be created and then installed on any PC with Windows 10.
The problem is that by this system a requirements check cannot be run and therefore cannot determine whether the update It is compatible with third-party software that we have installed on the computer. This can lead to failures later.
To prevent these failures, Microsoft is blocking the Windows 10 November 2019 Update on some Re altek Bluetooth radio drivers, those that They present problems, something that does not happen in the case of using methods such as Media Creation Tool. For this reason, it is better to wait for the update to jump automatically on our computers.
