One of the examples are printer drivers that are no longer part of the Windows 10 image. Starting in Windows version 2020, May 2020 Update, it is possible to install optional updates on demand.<\/p>\n<p>Beginning with the\u00a0August 2020 security update for Windows 10, when optional updates are detected by your device, they will be displayed on a new page under\u00a0<strong>Settings<\/strong>\u00a0>\u00a0<strong>Update &#038; Security<\/strong>\u00a0>\u00a0<strong>Windows Update<\/strong>\u00a0>\u00a0<strong>View optional updates<\/strong>.
