Security News > 2020 > November > November 2020 Patch Tuesday forecast: Significant OS changes ahead
The Patch Tuesday updates appear to be light, so things are looking much better as we enter the final stretch for 2020.
Yes, you read that correctly - not the 2020 Fall Release or Windows 10 version 2009, but Windows 10 version 20H2. Name changes once again!
The new features in Windows 10 version 20H2 are also included in the October cumulative update for Windows 10 version 2004, although they are dormant.
A big change regarding servicing stack updates and the latest cumulative updates has finally been made - LCUs and SSUs have been combined into a single cumulative monthly update! Moving forward we don't have to worry about managing these separately.
Microsoft recommends applying the latest SSU for Windows 10, version 2004 and then you can forget about SSUs in the future because they are automatically applied as needed in the cumulative updates.
