Title: Feature update to Windows 10, version 20H2 Classification: 3689bdc8-b205-4af4-8d4a-a63924c5e9d5 (Upgrade) KB: 5004237 Update ID: ff95561b-934d-4f58-af55-cabbdffb1a92

The feature updates of Windows 10 are not available on Microsoft Update Catalog website for downloading. They can be deployed via patch management applications like WSUS, SCCM, etc. If you're looking at Microsoft Catalog Update website using your C# code, this is the probable reason why it doesn't list out the same.

If you've configured the "Upgrade" classification on WSUS, then kindly perform a manual synchronisation. Hopefully, after a successful sync with Microsoft Update servers, all the feature updates (including v20H2) should reflect in the WSUS inventory.
