Free up disk space
As with previous major updates for Windows 10, the May 2020 Update requires a certain amount of hard drive space to successfully download and install. If your main hard drive (where Windows 10 is installed, usually the C: drive), is almost full, then you'll encounter problems when trying to install Windows 10 May 2020 Update.
The May 2020 Update requires 32GB of free space on the hard drive where Windows 10 is installed.
So, the first thing you should do if the Windows 10 May 2020 Update install fails is to check your drive space in Windows Explorer. If it is running out of space, try typing in "Disk Clean-up" in the search box on the taskbar and select the system disk (usually the C: drive).
Click 'OK' then select the tick boxes of the files you want to delete. These should be safe to remove, but remember you can't retrieve them once they're gone. You'll be told how much space you'll save. Click 'OK' then 'Delete files' to remove the files. If you want to create more space, click 'Clean up system files'.
Once that's done, try downloading and installing the Windows 10 May 2020 Update again.
Windows 10 May 2020 Update install displays 0x80190001, 0x80073712, or 0x80245006 errors
If you get an error message when installing the Windows 10 May 2020 Update, and it displays a string of numbers like 0x80190001, 0x80073712, or 0x80245006 then it could mean that your PC needs more disk space.
To fix this problem, open Settings, go to System > Storage, then where it says 'Storage sense', click 'Free up space now'.
Select what you want to remove - and make sure 'Temporary Windows installation files' and 'Windows Setup temporary files' are both selected. Then click 'Remove files'.
Next, open up the Windows Update app and select 'Check for updates' to try installing it again.
Disable anti-virus software
Antivirus software is certainly helpful to have, but it can sometimes cause problems when trying to install the Windows 10 May 2020 Update.
If you have antivirus software installed, try disabling that before trying to install the Windows 10 May 2020 Update, as that may fix the problem. You should then enable it and use it normally once the installation has completed.
You may even need to uninstall the software temporarily. Just make sure that you reinstall it once the update installs successfully.
Reset the update
If you are still experiencing problems when trying to install the Windows 10 May 2020 Update, then you may need to reset the update service and try again.
To do this, open up the Command Prompt by typing in 'CMD' into the searchbar and right-clicking on 'Command Prompt'. Select 'Run as administrator'.
Once open, type in the following, pressing Enter after each line:
net stop wuauserv net stop bits net stop cryptsvc Ren %systemroot%\SoftwareDistribution\SoftwareDistribution.bak Ren %systemroot%\system32\catroot2 catroot2.bak net start wuauserv net start bits net start cryptsvc
Afterwards, restart your PC and try installing the Windows 10 May 2020 Update again.

Click 'Change network adapter options', and in the window that appears click 'Change adapter options'.
Right-click your network adapter, then select 'Disable'. This turns of the internet connection to your PC. Count to 20 seconds, then right-click it again and choose 'Enable'.
Fix problems by installing the Windows 10 May 2020 Update via USB
If you're still having trouble downloading and installing the Windows 10 May 2020 Update, you should try installing it from a USB drive.
You'll need a blank DVD or a USB stick to add the installation files, with at least 5GB of spare space. If you don't have a spare drive, check out our list of the best USB flash drives 2020.
Download and install the tool, then open it up and agree to the license terms. On the "What do you want to do?" screen, click "Create installation media for another PC", then select 'Next'. Select the language, edition and 32-bit or 64-bit, then select either 'USB flash drive' or ISO file', depending on whether you're installing from a USB or from a DVD (select ISO for the latter).
Once the tool has formatted and created the installation drive, you can restart your PC, boot from the drive and install the Windows 10 May 2020 Update from scratch. Our How to install Windows 10 guide will show you how.

The installation should continue (without checking the internet for more files) and once it's complete you can reconnect to the internet. Finally, open up Windows Update (Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update) and click 'Check for Updates' to download the final files.
Some people are receiving a 'DynamicUpdate' error message when using the Media Creation Tool. To fix this, open File Explorer and go to C:\$Windows.~WS\Sources\Windows\sources.
You should see an app called Setupprep.exe. Double-click it to launch the update program.

If this happens, try downloading the ISO file again, then run the Media Creation Tool again to create a bootable USB or DVD and try again.
How to fix problems that stop Windows 10 May 2020 Update from finishing the install
There's nothing more frustrating than seeing an update seemingly install without a problem, and then getting an error message at the last moment.
If you see either 'Error: We couldn't complete the updates. Undoing changes. Don't turn off your computer' or 'Error: Failure configuring Windows Updates. Reverting changes' messages, which prevent Windows 10 May 2020 Update from finishing the install process, then follow the next steps to fix the problem.

Windows 10 May 2020 Update is causing problems with OneDrive
We've seen reports that Windows 10 May 2020 Update is breaking OneDrive for some people.
OneDrive is Microsoft's cloud backup tool which allows you to save files on the internet, and access them from any Windows 10 device as if they were stored locally. By storing your important files in OneDrive, the idea is that they are backed up and safe.
Some people are finding that they cannot access their files that are saved on their OneDrive account.
Others are also reporting they are getting an error message that says "OneDrive cannot connect to Windows".
It seems there is a way to fix this problem, which is by resetting OneDrive.
To do this, press the Windows key + R on your keyboard to open the Run dialog window. Paste
%localappdata%\Microsoft\OneDrive\onedrive.exe /reset
into the text box, then press 'OK'. Now try opening OneDrive.
For people who are getting the 'OneDrive cannot connect to Windows' error, you're going to need to go into the Windows Registry. Be warned – you need to be really careful with editing the registry, as editing the wrong thing can break Windows 10 even more.
Type 'Reg' into the search bar (next to the Start menu) and select 'Registry Editor' when it appears. In the left-hand menu, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\CldFlt\Instances. You should see 'DefaultInstance' in the right-hand pane. Click it and change its value from CldFlt to CldFltUpper.
Apparently, Microsoft is aware of this problem (it should be, if it has indeed been knocking around for a while), and is working on a fix. Hopefully that won't take too long to arrive.
Windows 10 May 2020 Update problems with Lenovo devices
Microsoft and Lenovo have acknowledged that the Windows 10 May 2020 Update is causing big problems for some Lenovo laptops and tablets.
Read on for Lenovo's official list of known issues and how to fix them.
Synaptics ThinkPad UltraNav driver issue
Lenovo has found that some of its devices are showing an error message that says "Failed to load Apoint.DLL, Alps Pointing device application has stopped" when users try to use the system recovery feature.
According to Lenovo, to fix the problem do the following:
- Open Device Manager.
- Expand 'Mice and other pointing devices'.
- Select 'Think UltraNav device'.
- Right-click on it and update driver to the latest version.
- Restart your computer.
Yellow warning mark on the disk drive
If you see a yellow warning mark on a disk drive that uses the BitLocker encryption tool in Windows 10 after installing the May 2020 update, then try the following steps:
- Right-click on the disk drive.
- Turn on Bitlocker and turn it off.
- If you don't use BitLocker, you can disable the feature from Settings > Update & Security > Device encryption.
Movies & TV app green borders issue
Some people have been complaining that when watching videos in the Movies & TV app, a green border appears around the footage.
According to Lenovo, this is due to a compatibility issue with an old AMD graphic driver and the Windows 10 May 2020 Update.
To fix the issue, make sure your AMD graphics drivers are up to date.
F11 key not working after installing Windows 10 May 2020 Update
It seems like the F11 key may no longer work on the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Tablet Gen3 after installing the Windows 10 May 2020 Update.
There doesn't seem to be a fix at the moment, but Lenovo says it is planning to address the bug later in June.
Lenovo devices suffering from Blue Screen of Death
Lenovo is looking into an issue where owners of its devices are encountering Blue Screen of Death errors when they resume from sleep or hibernation.
Unfortunately, at the moment, the only way to fix this problem is to uninstall the May 2020 Update and roll back to Windows 10 version 1909 (or earlier).
Windows 10 May 2020 Update forces you to use tablet mode
We've been seeing reports that people running the Windows 10 May 2020 Update who have installed the cumulative update KB4557957 are being forced to use tablet mode - even if they have a desktop PC.
This changes your desktop to behave as if you were using a touchscreen, and it can be very annoying.
Those reporting the issue note that uninstalling the cumulative update in question gets rid of the problem, but fortunately if you want to keep the update – and relevant security fixes – in place, there is a workaround here.
The simple fix for those running the May 2020 Update as described on Reddit is to tweak Windows 10's tablet settings.
To do this, click on the Start button and click the Settings cog, then click 'System', then 'Tablet'.
Click on 'Change additional tablet settings', and make sure that all the options under 'When I'm not using tablet mode' are turned off.
Reboot your PC, and the problematic interface changes should hopefully be a thing of the past.
How to uninstall Windows 10 May 2020 Update
If you're still encountering problems with the Windows 10 May 2020 Update, or you don't like the changes Microsoft has made, then you can uninstall the May 2020 Update and revert to a previous version of Windows.
We wouldn't actually advise doing this, as you might miss out on future security updates from Microsoft, but if you would rather go back until all the bugs and problems with the Windows 10 May 2020 Update has been fixed, then follow these steps.
First, go to Settings > Update & security > Recovery and click on 'Get started' under where it says 'Go back to the previous version of Windows 10'.
A window will appear asking you why you want to revert to a previous version. Answer the question (this helps Microsoft improve future versions of Windows), then click 'No, thanks' from the next window. This is where it asks you if you want to check for any updates.
Click 'Next' on the window that follows, then 'Next' again, making sure you have your Windows log in details handy. Finally, click 'Go back to earlier build' and the Windows 10 May 2020 Update will uninstall.
If you wait 10 days to uninstall the Windows 10 May 2020 Update, you might find the option is gone. Unfortunately, the only way to uninstall the May 2020 Update after that is to perform a fresh install of Windows 10 using an ISO file of an older version.
