Windows 10. New frustrating problems for users appeared before the release of the May 2019 Update, here's how serious they became, and how frustrating they are.

Windows 10. At the moment, the May 2019 Update is in full testing, and this means that everyone who is part of the beta testing program of the operating system has the ability to test the update before the release. Unfortunately, some of those who decided to install the update in Windows 10 discovered to their amazement that they cannot do the process if they have USB sticks or SD cards connected to the computers where they want to do the installation.

Windows 10. The problem seems to be based on the fact that the operating system changes the letters of the storage media connected to it in a completely wrong way, and the installation becomes impossible when they are changed randomly. Basically, during the installation of the update, Windows 10 decides that the storage medium where the operating system is installed should have a different letter, and this effectively destroys the entire file installation procedure.

Windows 10. New FRUSTRATING PROBLEMS for Users

Windows 10. Although the majority of affected users reported having external storage media connected to their computers, those who have multiple internal storage media discover that the problem is exactly the same in their case. Those from Microsoft did not provide a clear explanation for the reasons why this problem occurs during the installation of the May 2019 Update for Windows 10, but it proves once again that the company's engineers are unable to produce updates that can be installed without problems.

Example: An upgrade to the May 2019 Update is tried on a computer that has the October 2018 Update installed and also has a thumb drive inserted into a USB port. Before the upgrade, the device would have been mounted in the system as drive G based on the existing drive configuration. However, after the upgrade, the device is reassigned a different drive letter. For example, the drive is reassigned as drive H.

Windows 10. At the moment Microsoft has decided to block the possibility of installing this update for people who have external storage media connected to their computers, but this is a partial solution. The solution should mean solving the problem so that Windows 10 allows the installation of the update without any restrictions, and this should happen when the update is released in the final version, at least that is what all users hope.

Windows 10. Normally, the May 2019 Update should be released in May by the Microsoft company, but considering the problems that keep appearing, for now it is not certain that it will happen
