Microsoft Tests Fix For Bug That Defrags SSD Drives Too Often

An anonymous reader shares a report: Windows 10 May 2020 Update, otherwise known as version 2004, was released in May with at least ten known issues. Microsoft later expanded the list of the problems and acknowledged that this feature update is also plagued with a bug that breaks Drive Optimize tool. After upgrading to Windows 10 version 2004, users observed that Optimize Drives (also known as defragmentation tool) is not correctly recording the last time a drive has been optimized. As a result, when you open the tool, you will see that your SSD drive says it 'Needs Optimization' even though you've manually optimized the drives already or automatic maintenance was run this morning. Since the last optimizations times are forgotten, Windows 10's built-in maintenance tool started defragging an SSD drive much more often when you restart Windows. With Windows 10 Build 19042.487 (20H2) for Insiders, Microsoft has finally resolved all problems with the Optimize Drives (also known as defragmentation tool).
