Windows 11 to Enable Hot Patching for Faster Security Updates Without Reboots
- Windows 11 will get "hot patching" to apply security updates without reboots
- Already being tested in Windows 11 dev preview builds for insiders with virtualization-based security enabled
- Eliminates headaches of patch reboots failing or coordinating updates across systems
- Increases uptime productivity by not interrupting users to reboot
- Still may require full reboots every few months for more comprehensive updates
