Are you planning to install the Windows 10 Fall Update? These may be some interesting points to consider

There is less and less time left for the expected Microsoft Event and as we already mentioned, one of the main sections will be the one corresponding to the new software that the Redmond-based company puts on the table and in it,a name appears strongly: Windows 10 19H2

The version that we will see coming from Windows 10 corresponding to the 19H2 branch is not the most revolutionary (no big news is expected), Well, the most interesting will be the spring 2020 update (branch 20H1), but it is convenient to know the steps to follow before updating our equipment and the requirements that they must meet.

Windows 10 19H2 or what is the same, Windows 10 1909, will arrive with a large number of improvements and especially with corrections to improve the operation of the systemThe improvements, at least the most important ones, remain for the 20H1 branch. But it is convenient to know what are the requirements that our team must meet before updating to the autumn update.

Despite Microsoft's recent history of problematic updates, not a few users think about upgrading from the moment the update is released. Others may even force their arrival. And first, we must know that our team must meet certain minimums to be able to update

Minimum requirements

Our equipment must have a processor that has at least a frequency of 1 GHz, a specification within the reach of a great immensity of equipment in the market.Along with the power of the processor, a minimum RAM memory is required, which will be 1 Gb if we use the 32-bit version or 2 GB if our computer uses Windows 10 64-bit.

Equally, our team must have a DirectX 9 compatible graphics card, nothing special. In parallel the screen must be at least 7 inches and offer a minimum resolution of at least 800×600 pixels.

The device on which we are going to install Windows 10 1909 must have a hard disk space of at least 32 GB. It is the reservation that the system makes for the installation and thus avoid possible problems during the process.

Tips before upgrading

If you are determined to update as soon as possible, it may be interesting to keep in mind a series of guidelinesPractical considerations with which you can solve more than one problem before or during the update process. In case you fly them, we could say that there are a series of steps to take into account when having your PC ready to update it with Windows 10 1909

The first step would be none other than having our equipment and our files organized And since it is not a clean installation , what better than before receiving it to review the programs that we have installed and eliminate everything that is not useful. In this way we can leave free space on the hard drive, which never hurts, and on the way lighten the load on RAM memory by ending unnecessary programs.

Going safe is Bet on a backup copy It is better to be cautious and it doesn't hurt to have a backup copy of all the content we have.Above all, we seek to keep those files that we do not want to lose safe in case of a possible failure or any incident. A process that regardless of the update, it is advisable to carry out periodically. We already saw in an article the steps in the 3, 2, 1 backup strategy

It is also advisable to disconnect all those peripherals that we have connected to the equipment. External hard drives, game controllers, digitizing tablets... any connected element that is not essential can be disconnected during the process in order to avoid possible interference.

The last step and no less important for to keep our team always updated, both in the operating system and in the installed programs. It is interesting to at least have the basic security patches (despite the faulty updates from Microsoft](https://www.xatakawindows.com/windows/patch-launched-microsoft-to-correct-cpu-consumption-causes-new-error-searches-start-menu). And it is possible that after making the jump we find that we have installed programs that are not updated to the latest versions and in this way prevent them from causing problems with the version jump.

Expect

With all these steps and tips, all you have to do is wait Once Microsoft releases the update, it may take a few hours (or days) ) to be available, especially because of its size and because it is one of the two major updates each year.

There are even some users who prefer to let a few days pass before upgrading to a newer version of an operating system so they don&39;t make guinea pigs>"
