Microsoft takes the pain out of updates

System updates can feel like a hassle—taking forever and hogging bandwidth. But Microsoft’s upcoming Windows 11 24H2 update is set to change that.

Introducing ‘checkpoint cumulative updates.’ While it sounds technical, it’s a simple concept with big benefits.

How Updates Work Now:
Currently, Windows gets cumulative updates monthly, bundling all the latest fixes and enhancements. These bundles can be hefty, requiring considerable time and bandwidth to download and install.

What’s Changing:
With checkpoint cumulative updates, instead of downloading large bundles every month, your system will receive smaller, more frequent updates. These updates are minor tweaks to the last major checkpoint, making them quicker to download and install.

What This Means for Your Business:

  • Less Downtime: Updates take less time, so you can get back to work faster.
  • Bandwidth-Friendly: Smaller updates mean less strain on your internet, reducing the chances of interrupting important video calls or other bandwidth-heavy activities.
  • Hassle-Free: These updates happen automatically through Windows Update, running seamlessly in the background without disrupting your workflow.

Microsoft has a history of making updates more efficient. When Windows 11 launched, they introduced new compression technology that reduced update sizes by 40%. The 24H2 update takes it a step further for an even smoother experience.

A Timely Reminder:
This new update system is standard for Windows 11 and the upcoming Windows Server 2025. With Windows 10 approaching its end of life, there’s even more reason to upgrade your business to Windows 11 now.
