Microsoft’s operating system updates are a mess, creating a huge amount of trouble. Apparently, the company is working on changes to how minor updates work. According to the company, they will reduce download times updates 30% thanks to some functional modifications.
Lately, we find that every update released brings a new issue. Above all, we find that Windows 11 updates are a disaster, causing lots of issues. The newest is that a watermark appears in W11 that our computer does not meet the operating system requirements, even if it is fake.
Changes in the deployment of Windows updates
Update policies are not changed, which for now will continue to be a major disaster. Remember that currently updates are tested by members of Insiders. A group of “betatesters” of Microsoft updates that are normally ignored.
Microsoft has announced the use of Unified Update Platform (UUP). The first local update for UUP will be deployed on March 28. They point out from the company that the UUP update allows reduce download time by 30%. This means a reduction in update time.
Also, note that the UUP method will also apply to .NET updates. It will ensure that this mechan ism allows for faster installation of the .NET Framework.
We have moved to using the Unified Update Platform (UUP) for .NET Framework updates. Users of Win11 version 22H2 feature updates can automatically ensure that their .NET Framework is up-to-date through Windows Update. That means one less reboot.
By pushing through UUP, users can have more control over optional updates. Another benefit of the UUP approach is that users have control over previewing and optional .NET Framework updates.
Users can now find the next optional .NET Framework update for Windows 11 version 22H2 on the Settings > Windows Update > Advanced > Optional Updates page.
Prior to this change, you may have checked for updates by clicking the Check for updates button on the Settings > Windows Update page. This will automatically install the .NET Framework Preview Update and cause your device to restart. This enhancement provides greater visibility and control over the adoption of the latest optional .NET Framework preview updates.

Download time will not solve problems
Microsoft has long moved away from user needs and demands. This is verified with Windows 11, an operating system that “forces” many users to update their computers due to absurd requirements. On the other hand, note that this latest operating system is designed specifically for Intel processors, disparaging AMD users.
Microsoft’s big chance is that Linux isn’t in competition, at least for now. It’s possible that one day Linux distros will end up being a rival, if Android is to be considered. Some changes are needed to make it more user-friendly and easy to use. If that point were to be reached, Microsoft would be in serious trouble.
