How do I update my expired Windows 10 Home in S Mode to the Feature update to Windows 10, version 20H2 but still keep my S Mode? It is very important for me to have S Mode.
There was an auto OS update before and it took me out of S Mode (so I reinstalled with a system image).
How do I update it and stay in S Mode?

When its taken out of s mode with this update, it is putting the OS at risk, as s mode doesn't require anti virus, but also slowing down and filling the hard drive.
