Windows 10 New Features on Patch Day September

Microsoft recently introduced a change. Function updates are no longer only available with the annual major version updates, but also with the optional updates and later on Patch Day. We’ll see what’s new to discover. Microsoft basically releases important innovations and optimizations at any time, but always together with security and maintenance updates.

The new rotation provides that functions will first be released with the monthly optional updates. Then every user can choose whether he wants to use the update or not. On the regular Patch Day on the second Tuesday of the month, all the content of the optional update will also be distributed to other users. According to Microsoft, it is not planned to release the new functions to all users at once, but only gradually.

Improved malware detection
