In addition to the other nasty bugs that have been fixed, Microsoft's Windows 10 2004 still has another noteworthy bug that could shorten the life of your SSD if you restart your computer frequently.

The cause of this problem is Windows 10 2004 a system failure recorded the last time the SSD was fragmented. This results in each boot that the system will activate Optimize Drives, also known as defragmentation tool.

Windows 10 2004 is an update that offers lots of new features and worthwhile upgrades. However, it also has many problems that up to now Microsoft has not completely overcome.

Over the years, Microsoft has implemented a lot of measures to limit errors in Windows updates. However, because Windows 10 runs on so many devices, Microsoft is unable to cover every issue.

While waiting for Microsoft to release the patch, the best way to limit the impact of Windows 10 2004 on your SSD is not to reboot / shutdown your computer too many times.
