Microsoft is rolling out a new way to update Windows 11 with something called “checkpoint cumulative updates”.
These updates should be smaller and faster than whole system updates, as they only update the parts of your system that need updating.
Sounds great, right?
Well, some people are already reporting issues with the latest update, particularly those using PCs with certain Intel or AMD chips.
As of right now, checkpoint cumulative updates are only available on Microsoft’s new Copilot+ PCs. But people are having issues with the installation causing stalling or “operation not supported” error messages.
While Microsoft hasn’t officially acknowledged the problem yet, they’ve released a support document with the September update that hints at potential issues.
If you’ve had problems with updates from Microsoft, you might need to manually download and reinstall the update. There are step-by-step guides available to help you, or my team can give you a hand.
Hopefully, Microsoft will have brought out an automatic fix by the time the update reaches everyone. Something to keep an eye out for.
Have you had any problems installing updates?
