Yes, I know it seems early, but today’s release of a cumulative update for Windows 10 version 20H2 indicates that this release is nearly complete.
Windows 10 version 20H2 is currently testing in the Windows Insider Beta channel, or what used to be called the Slow ring. Today, Microsoft released build 19042.388 (KB4565503) to testers, describing it as a cumulative update that only includes quality improvements.

<blockquote><em><a href="#554051">In reply to ghostrider:</a></em></blockquote><p>To be honest I did not have any problems with Windows 10 since 1903. Everything prior that was a miss. I know a lot of people still have issues and with the pace Microsoft is moving, it is a difficult to make all variations of PC hardware happy. We are not talking only about OEM but ton of custom built computers. Maybe Microsoft should slow down giving us more meaningful updates.</p>

<p>I already moved to this build 19042.388. Works fell. It is basically finalized, it will keep getting patched as part of Tuesday patch until Microsoft is ready to make it public.</p>
