Windows Update is a local location for Windows operating system updates, security patches, and new features from Microsoft. Today, Microsoft announced that Windows Update is now also open to all apps, hardware drivers, and various other updates that no longer require them to be done one by one.
With Windows Update open, with just one click, the Windows 11 operating system, apps, and hardware can be updated simultaneously. The advantage of using Windows Update according to Microsoft is that new version notifications can be received locally and users need to open different launchers for different apps. All change logs for each version are also collected locally. Making it easier for IT admins at work to manage updates more systematically.
Application and hardware developers can now participate in the early testing of Windows Update that has been opened starting today.
