Anyone running Microsofts Latest version: 2004 ?

I'm still using the last: Windows 10 Version 1909, but am happy with it..

Plus I don't wanna lose Firefox as one of my browsers. .

Appreciate any input.... Pros.......... Cons etc .. Thanks in advance.

I know changes are coming for 10/01/20 from MS.

I haven't updated yet. I'm on 1909. I usually wait a bit. More often than not they release the fixes and build them into the upgrade or Windows Updates in the months following the initial release. At work I keep our machines one version behind. We'll be rolling out 1909 in the next few weeks. That said we have a number of machines that are on 2004 with no issues. Our default browser is Chrome because we are a G Suite shop and I'm not aware of any issues. From what I've read online there were reports of browser issues back in June but it doesn't seem to me to very widespread. Most of the known issues have been resolved through Windows updates.

I thought I posted that clarification last night, I guess the blak hole caught it.

I don't see a difference, I don't use most features. My computer is a i3 from 2006 that I found in somebodies trash.

Doc- Thank you for your reply. That's what I'm gonna do, wait it out. It is in my "Update & Security" box waiting for me to hit download. I just don't want to at this time. I was reading of various issues (browser & some hi tech stuff) last night on a search about 2004.. (Thanks for the link as well).. I'm quite content running 1909. W/Fox & Chrome

Blue_SS- Thank You, Yes, I'm happy with 1909 as well, it was just last year (11 / 2019) I switched from 1903 to 1909.

Don- Thank You. IDK, but I know that sure happens. There are lots I don't use, but lots I do.

Just looked and I'm running 2004. Haven't noticed any difference.
But then I only know enough about computers t be dangerous.
