How do I get the Windows 10 May 2021 Update?

When the Windows 10 May 2021 Update is ready for your device, it will be available to download and install from the Windows Update page in Settings. Choose a time that works best for you to download the update. You'll then need to restart your device and complete the installation. After that, your device will be running Windows 10, version 21H1.

To manually check for the latest recommended updates, select Start > Settings > Update & Security  > Windows Update > Windows Update.

To get help updating to the latest version of Windows 10, go to the Microsoft software download page and download the Update Assistant.

How do I manually update my PC?

Some updates may not be available on all devices at the same time—we’re making sure updates are ready and compatible.

To stay up to date, select Start > Settings > Update & Security  > Windows Update > Windows Update, and then select Check for updates.

If a feature update is available for your device, it will appear separately on the Windows Update page. To install it, select Download and install now.

I'm having trouble installing updates or getting an error (such as 0x80073712). What I can do?

Here are a few things you can try if you're having trouble installing updates:

Make sure that your device is connected to the internet. Downloading updates requires an internet connection.

If you’re connected the internet, try to install the updates manually. Select Start > Settings > Update & Security  > Windows Update > Windows Update, and then view available updates.

Check for updates

Run the Windows Update Troubleshooter. Select Start > Settings > Update & Security> Troubleshoot. Under Get up and running, select Windows Update.

How long does it take to download updates?

The time required to download updates primarily depends on internet connection speed, network settings, and update size. Make sure your device is plugged in and connected to the internet to download updates faster.

How can I stop updates from downloading and installing? Can I skip updates?

You can’t stop updates entirely—because they help keep your device safe and secure, updates will eventually need to be installed and downloaded, regardless of your update settings. Here's how to temporarily pause updates from being downloaded and installed. Note that after the pause limit is reached, you'll need to install the latest updates before you can pause updates again.

In the Windows 10 November 2019 Update (version 1909) or later, or in Windows version 1809 for Pro or Enterprise, select Start > Settings > Update & Security>Windows Update. Then choose one of the following options:

Select Pause updates for 7 days.

SelectAdvanced options. Then, in the Pause updates section, select the drop-down menu and specify a date for updates to resume.

How do I make sure my device restarts to install updates at a convenient time?

To finish installing an update, your device will need to restart. Windows will try to restart your device when you're not using it. If it can't, you'll be asked to schedule the restart for a more convenient time. Or, you can schedule anytime by following these steps:

Select Start > Settings > Update & Security  > Windows Update > Windows Update.

Select Schedule the restart and choose a time that's convenient for you.

You can set active hours to make sure automatic restarts for updates only happen when you're not using your device. Learn about active hours for Windows 10.

What if I don't have enough disk space for the update?

Try deleting files you don’t need, uninstalling apps you don’t use, or moving files to another drive like an external USB drive or OneDrive. For more tips on freeing up disk space, see Free up drive space in Windows 10.

How can I make sure updates don't use too much battery?

We recommend keeping devices like laptops and tablets plugged in when you’re not using them. This way, if updates are installed outside active hours, your device will have enough power to complete the installation. Windows updates don’t consume more battery than other typical system processes.

How do I see installed updates?

An update history is available so you can see which updates were installed, and when. You can also use this list to remove specific updates, although we don't recommend this unless it's necessary.

Select Start > Settings > Update & Security  > Windows Update > Windows Update> View update history.

View update history

For more info about what’s included in updates for Windows 10, see Windows 10 update history.

How do I remove an installed update?

We don’t recommend that you remove any installed updates. However, if you must remove an update, you can do so in update history.

Select Start > Settings> Update & Security> Windows Update>View update history>Uninstall updates.

Select the update you want to remove, then select Uninstall.

What is the difference between a feature and quality update?

Feature updates are typically released twice per year and include new functionality and capabilities as well as potential fixes and security updates. Quality updates are more frequent and mainly include small fixes and security updates. Windows is designed to deliver both kinds of updates to devices through Windows Update.

What is the best way to make sure my device is up to date?

To double check that your device is up to date, open Settings> Update & Security> Windows Update and see your update status and available updates.

Which version of Windows am I running?

Will reserved storage be turned on for devices that update to the Windows 10 May 2021 Update (version 21H1)?

Reserved storage is not automatically turned on by Windows in any update scenarios. It is only turned on for new devices with the Windows 10 May 2019 Update (version 1903) or later preinstalled, or devices on which a clean install was performed.
