Microsoft has begun rolling out Windows 11 updates KB5065848, KB5065847, and KB5065813, which are mandatory updates that are intended to improve the post-installation Windows 11 user experience. As such, they significantly change the behavior of Windows 11.
Once these updates are installed, future Windows updates that fix critical security vulnerabilities will be installed automatically as soon as the computer is connected to a network.
Users will reportedly be notified when such updates are available, but there’s no way to decline their installation. In addition, when reinstalling Windows 11, Microsoft will ensure that the system is fully updated from the start, reports Neowin.
Windows 11 stumbles to Windows 10
While Microsoft has been trying for months to boost the popularity of Windows 11 and encourage Windows 10 users to switch over, the latest figures on Windows market share show a major setback for the company as Windows 11 once again loses a chunk of its users.
Currently, there’s no compelling reason to upgrade to Windows 11 and say goodbye to Windows 10, especially now that Microsoft has extended Windows 10 support for another year. Not to mention the fact that Microsoft won’t allow Windows 11 on many PCs.
For those who love Windows 10 and want to stick with it for as long as possible, there’s even a free tool that grants Windows 10 support until 2032. It comes with some caveats, of course, but those drawbacks are worth putting up with if you can’t get (or dislike) Windows 11.
