Windows 10 November 2019 Update weighs very little and from Microsoft they clarify what is the reason
Table of contents:
Windows 10 November 2019 Update is a reality and there are already many users who are testing the new features it brings. However, despite being one of the two important updates that Microsoft releases every year, the update in question is somewhat light.
And it is that the bulk of the improvements and new features will arrive with the 20H1 branch of Windows 10 that will be released back in the first part 2020, maybe in spring. A fact that has led users to wonder if it is normal for this reason that the update that Microsoft has released has such little weight.Doubts that have ended up being answered by Microsoft.
News were already there
From the American company they have stepped forward clarifying that yes, it is normal that Windows 10 November 2019 Update occupies a space for the download of just over 180 Kb. Were you expecting a download of several hundred megabytes? In this case, it is not so.
And it's not because it doesn't include improvements, since they do exist, even if they aren't many. The little weight of this update is due to the fact that a good part of them were already prior to Windows 10 November 2019 Update These improvements were already included in Windows 10 May 2019 Update even though they were, if the term can be used, dormant.
What Microsoft has done with this update has been to wake them up, to unlock those new features. A little weight that only occurs if you already have Windows 10 May 2019 Update on your computer.
This is a test carried out by Microsoft that apparently users did not like it too much, especially those who are part of of the Insider Program, so in principle Microsoft will not use this system again in future updates of its operating system.
Microsoft may have intended with this update to fix the bugs present in the spring update. An update that is dedicated above all to correcting bugs and that is why we already said that it was rare, but that this update came almost free>"
