Introduction
Hi,
Welcome back, and Happy New Year! I hope you all had a great holiday!
This week’s highlight is the introduction of Hotpatch updates for Windows 11 Enterprise, version 24H2. Currently, in public preview, Hotpatch allows Monthly B release security updates to be installed without requiring a system restart, significantly reducing downtime and disruptions.
