As Microsoft has finished Windows 10 version 2004 '20H1' development, the ISO images are now already available on MSDN. So, if you have an MSDN subscription, you can grab the files.
Starting in Windows 10 version 2004, Microsoft will no longer provide 32-bit ISO images to device vendors, significantly reducing the presence of 32-bit Windows 10 on the market. New devices running 20H1 will have 64-bit Windows 10 version only.

How to Sign in to Microsoft Store with Different Account in Windows 10
Like Android has Google Play, and there's the App Store in iOS, the Microsoft Store app (formerly Windows Store) adds the ability to deliver digital content to the end user in Windows.

If you like, you can sign in to Microsoft Store with a different account and still use your current Microsoft account to sign in to Windows 10.
As you may remember, there was indication that Windows 10 version 2004 was coming to the production branch on May 28, 2020. It looks like this is now sort of confirmed.
