Here’s Why Your Next Windows 11 PC Update Might Not Require a Reboot
What’s the first thing that annoys you about Windows updates on your PC is that every update requires a reboot to take effect. But Microsoft is now ready to end this user suffering by eliminating the need to restart the computer every time a new update is installed.
The latest Windows Latest report suggests that Microsoft has found a way to break this layer and offer seamless updates to its Windows 11 PC users. The company has found a way to allow system downloads and even implement an update called hotpatching, according to the report. Microsoft has already tested certain virtual machines on its Azure server, but it is mentioned that Windows 11 will also see the benefits of this technology.
We’re not sure when Microsoft will roll this out to Windows 11 users and in what form, but it’s good to see that the company understands the need to simplify the upgrade process, especially since it hasn’t had any major security fixes released. .
But does this technology mean the end of constant system reboots for all Windows updates? It has been noted that reboot-free updates can be limited to one every three months, suggesting that only basic Microsoft updates are allowed to work this way.
Windows is also getting a boost from AI advancements from Intel with new Ultra processors and app developers adding AI to their ecosystem. Microsoft will also offer Copilot for Windows PCs with a dedicated button in future models. The industry is excited about the outcome of AI and how it is expected to revive stagnant markets that are yet to see full bloom in the near future.
