Can I upgrade to the newest version of Windows 10 when it is released by Microsoft?
We recommend waiting to upgrade to new versions of Windows 10 until we’ve fully tested the new version. This takes several months as we do this as part of updating the Agilent Original Bundle PC with the image provided by Hewlett-Packard. Currently the latest tested version is 1903. If you decide to upgrade to a newer version of Windows 10 than we’ve fully tested, please note that the Agilent customer support team may require you to go back to an earlier version if you report an issue they cannot reproduce.
