Every Windows 10 update brings its own appropriate changes, but
the upcoming May 2020 version is more important than most of Microsoft's
feature updates. After the update, Windows 10 will be kind to your hard drive,
keeping an eye on your files and programs, and that will not come at the
expense of search performance. This is all thanks to a sharing system and a
little common sense.
Years ago, it was common for Windows Tips articles and
optimization guides to recommend disabling the Windows Indexing service.
Microsoft implemented this feature so that you can open the search bar and get
instant results as you type. However, it also meant the operating system needed
to continuously scan your hard drive for changes. In some configurations
(especially those with slow-spinning drives), that can actually kill system
performance.
Today, solid-state drives (SSDs) have outdone spinning drives to
run Windows - many people still use large, inexpensive spinning drives for bulk
storage. Even if most of us are using SSDs, many cheap PCs still rely on
spinning drives, and Windows 10 Build 2004 should be easy on them.
The new indexing service is more efficient when it is running,
which will help the spinning drive maintain a minimum level of performance and
avoid noticeable lag. A feature was also added to Windows 10 Build 2004, which
throttles or pauses indexing activity when a user is moving or deleting files.
Even depending on your configuration, SSD can help boost performance.

Search indexing changes would be great for a
subset of users, but there are a ton of changes in this version. There is a new
version of the Linux subsystem, this time with an appropriate open-source a kernel that will get the update. The search UI will include some quick search
buttons and more relevant results to go with that new indexing system. Finally,
there is DirectX 12 Ultimate with support for ray tracing. The update, sadly,
will not come with a fancy new video card that can handle ray tracing.
Microsoft
reportedly finalized the May 2020 update, so the 2004 build could be one that
rolls out to users in a few weeks. As usual, the update will hit a low number
of users before launching widely. If you want quick access, you can join the
Windows Insider program.
