Windows 10 KB4571744 is an optional update for testing and validation by IT pros - are you sure that you downloaded it and installed it without problems .....

It's in the Microsoft Update Catalogue :-

http://www.catalog.update.microsoft....px?q=KB4571744

Those who prefer doing a download, rather than wait for MS to allocate as they please, might well already have this as optional/automatic downloads may be selected by user's hardware, etc.

No sign of any restrictions by skills, etc.

Windows 10 KB4571744 is an optional update for testing and validation. Optional updates are intended for testing by IT pros, but consumers can also download it on their production computers. Moreover, these updates are optional so they don’t necessarily need to be deployed by users.
https://www.ghacks.net/2020/09/04/wi...ixes-released/

The update is beta and designed for testing purposes, and for Microsoft to receive Telemetry data from systems the update is installed on to fix last minute issues that the company's automated systems detect.
https://phonemantra.com/microsoft-ha...ndows-10-2004/

Since the update is optional, the user is responsible for installing it. However, the fixes it contains will be included in a service pack coming out next week (today) as part of the Patch Tuesday program.
https://news.softpedia.com/news/what...4-530988.shtml

Microsoft has released a new optional cumulative update for Windows 10 version 2004, or May 2020 Update, ahead of new updates that are shipped automatically to devices on Patch Tuesday.

This month’s Patch Tuesday cycle takes place on September 8.

Have you seen the list of symptoms .....

There are at least 75 "fixes and improvements" .....

Only IT "pros" (or exes) will spend time cross-checking a list like that to see if the medicine is required .....

Most will start by typing in the symptoms (error messages), into a search engine, and the pointers will come up.
