Microsoft has finalized the development of Windows 10 May 2020 Update. The v2004 RTM is now available through the Windows Insider program. It is proposed for the uses registered on the Release Preview ring.
This is an important step for this first update to the Windows 10 functionality of the year. It is the target of final tests before the launch of the “general public” deployment. This should happen within a few weeks if everything goes as planned.
You should know that this deployment will be done in stages. This means that not everyone will get it at the same time. Patience is needed. May 2020 Update is, however, an important version with many novelties in its baggage. You can test it now.

Please note that the May 2020 Update will only get pushed automatically to a subset of Windows Insiders in the Release Preview ring at first. Everyone else can manually go to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update and manually check for updates and choose to install the May 2020 Update.
Important note for Windows Mixed Reality users:
Windows Mixed Reality may not work correctly for many users on the May 2020 Update. If you regularly use Windows Mixed Reality, we recommend holding off taking the May 2020 Update via Release Preview for now. We are working on a fix which we hope to release in early May.
