Fix: USB Bug Block in 1903 Windows 10 May 2019 Update

Today, in this article, we will discuss the simple way to fix USB Bug Block in 1903 Windows 10 May 2019 Update. As per Microsoft, USB and SD cards are one of the culprits that block the May 2019 update. Basically, when you connect these devices and then try to upgrade the OS to 1903 version through Windows Update, the process fails with an error message.

SD memory cards and external USB devices are always assigned a dedicated drive or letter. So, once you plug them in during the upgradation procedure, Microsoft calls it as an inappropriate drive assignment. The Windows Update settings page throws the following error –

“This PC can’t be upgraded to Windows 10. Your PC has hardware that isn’t ready for this version of Windows 10. No action is needed. Windows Update will offer this version of Windows 10 automatically once the issue has been resolved”.
