Windows updates aren't always quick, especially when you're dealing with larger feature updates. Microsoft is now changing that. Microsoft has announced significant improvements to the Windows update process with the release of Windows 11s version 24H2.

Windows 11 version 24H2 is a big upgrade, but Microsoft says it will save you time with future monthly cumulative updates.

After installing the Windows 11 24H2 update, future updates should install faster, use less CPU, and require shorter reboot times.

The big 24H2 update improves the Windows Update stack and reduces install times, restart times, and CPU usage.

The Windows 11 24H2 update brings faster installation times and lower CPU usage, making system updates more efficient and less intrusive.

The October optional update for Windows 11 versions 23H2 and 22H2 brings the ability to make the Copilot key on PCs that have one open another app than Copilot.
