If you're like most people, system updates are probably a nuisance for you. They take a long time, and those large downloads consume valuable bandwidth and storage.
But here's the good news: Microsoft is set to simplify your life with the upcoming Windows 11 24H2 update.
They are introducing 'checkpoint cumulative updates,' which, despite the technical-sounding name, are straightforward and highly advantageous.
Typically, Windows receives monthly cumulative updates that package all the latest fixes and improvements together. These bundles can be large and time-consuming to download and install.
The new checkpoint cumulative updates will change this process. Instead of downloading a significant update each time, your system will now receive smaller, more frequent updates. These updates are tweaks to the previous major update or checkpoint.
So, what does this mean for your business? It's fantastic news... you'll spend less time waiting for updates to complete, allowing you to return to work sooner.
Moreover, if you have a limited internet connection, smaller updates are a boon. They consume less bandwidth, reducing the risk of disrupting someone else's video call.
The best part? All of this is done automatically through Windows Update. You won't need to make any changes. Your system will continue to run smoothly, with most updates occurring in the background. This seamless process ensures that your work remains uninterrupted.
Microsoft has previously optimized updates. When Windows 11 was initially released, they used new compression technology to decrease update sizes by 40%. With the 24H2 update, they are further enhancing the efficiency of the experience.
It's important to note that while this new update system will be standard for Windows 11 and the upcoming Windows Server 2025, it is less likely to be implemented for Windows 10, which is nearing its end of life. This provides even more motivation to upgrade your business to Windows 11 if you haven't already.
