As part of this effort, Microsoft is conducting an experiment related to how they deliver driver updates through Windows Update.

#IMPORTANT UPDATES ARE PENDING UPDATE#

Microsoft is continuing to look at ways to improve the update experience on Windows 10 PCs. All Windows 10 devices with a supported version will continue to automatically receive the monthly updates.

Windows may notify you when a feature update is available and ready for your machine. Windows will automatically initiate a new feature update if the version of Windows 10 is nearing end of support. Users can still вЂњCheck for updatesвЂќ to get monthly quality and security updates.

#IMPORTANT UPDATES ARE PENDING INSTALL#

Starting with Windows 10 build 18362, a new Download and install now option provides users a separate control to initiate the installation of a feature update on eligible devices with no known key blocking compatibility issues. Starting with Windows 10 build 18298 (19H1), when your device has an update requiring a reboot (including new builds released), you will see the Power button in the Start menu with orange indicator alerting you to restart your device. If you are not seeing this new behavior, let Microsoft know by sending in feedback via Feedback Hub. In RS4, now when Windows Update scans, downloads, and installs on a PC with AC power вЂ“ it will prevent the PC from going to sleep when it is not in active use, for up to 2 hours when receiving an update in order to give Windows Update more opportunity to succeed. In an effort to prevent PCs from becoming out of date, Microsoft is introducing a change in behavior to Windows Update starting with Windows 10 build 17107 that is designed to be more proactive at keeping PCs updated. This text, and the error code if visible, will now be selectable so you can easily copy and paste it elsewhere. Starting with Windows 10 build 16226, if an update has failed, when available, to help you better understand what went wrong Microsoft will now use a plain text string to describe the error that was encountered. Starting with Windows 10 build 16199, Windows Update will now list out the individual update status and progress. Starting with Windows 10 Creators Update version 1703, Windows Update will now also automatically download on a metered connection only those updates required to keep Windows running smoothly.

When a restart is scheduled, you can use a custom restart time to temporarily override active hours and schedule a custom time to finish installing the current update(s). You can set active hours to let Windows know when you're usually using your PC to help prevent inconvenient restarts.

Occasionally, your PC may need to restart to finish installing the updates. You can select to also receive updates for other Microsoft products like Office in Windows Update. Windows 10 will automatically check for new Windows Updates at the time you have set in automatic maintenance.

However, updates could be released at any time. Microsoft releases important updates every second Tuesday once a month, known as Patch Tuesday. (Unless youвЂ™re on a metered connection, then updates wonвЂ™t download until you manually check for updates.) The latest updates will automatically download and install when theyвЂ™re available. Microsoft has made it easier for Windows Update to keep Windows 10 updated by automatically downloading and installing the latest features and improvements, drivers, and hotfixes released by Microsoft-and with fewer interruptions and restarts when you're using your PC the most.
