Windows 11 users can get their updates constantly and automatically from Windows Update, but it looks like Microsoft is testing how to improve this system in the future.
With the arrival of the new version of Windows 11 22H2, Microsoft has confirmed that it is also improving the Windows update system, making it more stable and powerful, and also preventing possible errors that may occur in the process.
According to the company, one of the first changes lies in the size of the updates themselves, which should now be much smaller. This allows users to download updates faster, but also reduces data consumption. Moreover, by focusing only on the essential components, users resent updates that are less likely to fail.
Another novelty focused on improving Microsoft’s carbon footprint, the operating system now determines the best time to install updates, in order to be as efficient as possible. With this, Windows starts installing updates at the time when it is most convenient to use Clean Power.
All this news should be found on Windows 11 22H2. This update is made available by Microsoft to all users who are “searchers” – those who manually check for updates via Settings.
If you haven’t received it, try searching Windows Update a few times.
