Your PC is not yet supported by this version of Windows 10. No action is required.

Microsoft has therefore set an update lockout on Windows 10 version 2004.<\/p>\n<h2>Microsoft\u00a0 suggests a workaround<\/h2>\n<p>Microsoft has now published the support article <a href=\"https:\/\/support.microsoft.com\/en-za\/help\/4570719\/workaround-and-recovery-steps-for-issue-with-some-parity-storage-space\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Workaround and recovery steps for issue with some Parity Storage Spaces after updating to Windows 10, version 2004 and Windows Server, version 2004<\/a>\u00a0 on the issue described in support article <a href=\"https:\/\/support.microsoft.com\/en-us\/help\/4568129\/issue-with-some-storage-spaces-configurations-after-updating-to-window\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">KB4568129<\/a>. This applies to Windows 10 version 2004, Windows Server version 2004, and all editions of OneDriveOneDrive for Business. Simple storage spaces and mirror storage spaces are not affected by this issue.<\/p>\n<p>The first advice from Microsoft is to run the \"Hardware and Device Troubleshooting\" or \"Mirror Storage Spaces Troubleshooting\" troubleshooting. The next suggestion is to use a PowerShell command to set a VirtualDisk to read only. To do this, open Windows PowerShell by choosing <em>Run as administrator<\/em> and typing the following command:<\/p>\n<p>VirtualDisk | ? ResiliencySettingName -eq Parity | Get-Disk | Set-Disk -IsReadOnly $true<\/p>\n<p>Storage spaces should now be set to read-only, i.e. you can no longer write to them.\u00a0 Your device will still be usable, and any volume that is not considered RAW should be readable. In the KB article, Microsoft gives further advice if a Parity Storage Spaces drive is not seen as RAW in Disk Management.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[German]Windows 10 May 2020 Update (Version 2004) has some issues with parity storage spaces that prevents an upgrade.
