Windows 10 19H1 Will Make Setup Error Messages Less Confusing

On installing a new program, we often end up on a some “KB023….” error. Since none of us have the slightest idea about what it means, we go on spending hours on the Internet searching for the underlying problem.

It would be interesting to see what more the new Windows 10 setup will have to offer. The Windows 10 19H1 general release is scheduled for April 2019, while the RTM preview is arriving somewhere in March.
