One of the changes in Windows 11 is to improve the user’s update experience, which involves displaying the time estimation system in Windows Update to let them know how long it will take to fully install the available updates. Such information is convenient for users, but a key question about it is that the company must make it as accurate as possible.
The latest Windows 11 preview build has an important change in this regard because Microsoft has decided to disable the estimation function for computers with mechanical hard drives. In other words, only computers with solid-state drives inside will continue to display updated estimates, although Microsoft says this is only temporary until it manages to deal with a series of errors that affect the accuracy of this function.
We have been testing the power menu under the start, restart notification, Windows Update settings page, and the Windows Update icon displayed in the lower right corner of the taskbar to see how long it takes to restart for updates, the company explained. We are making a small adjustment for this feature so that it only displays on PCs with solid-state drives. If your computer has a traditional mechanical hard drive, you will no longer see the estimated time. We hope that once we solve it A few more errors can bring the estimation function back to the PC with HDD.
The development of Windows 11 is advancing at a very fast rate. In theory, we are only about two months away from the time when the operating system is launched for everyone. Microsoft itself also hinted that Windows 11 may be launched in October, and then provide free upgrade services for eligible devices, and continue until 2022.
