Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 18885 (20H1) Releases
Earlier, Microsoft announced that it had merged the Fast RIng and the Skip Ahead channel, but there was a problem with the Insider Preview version released at the time that some users could not install it. Subsequently, Microsoft announced that it would temporarily suspend the update until the problem was fixed and then push the re-merge channel to the user. The new and revised version has now been pushed.
If the user is using Windows 10 v1903, you will need to install the latest cumulative update KB4497093 and reboot to receive Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 18885 (20H1). In other words, if the user wants to merge and upgrade to 20H1, they need to update and download the 20H1 test version, so that they will not be downgraded after the installation.
