Updating your Windows PC is not always an easy task. Depending on the update in question, it is sometimes necessary to schedule the date and time to avoid being deprived of a computer during the operation. It must be said that not all updates are created equal and some can take several minutes, or even several hours in some cases.

Well aware of this problem, Microsoft has been working on a very promising solution since 2016: UUP updates, for Unified Update Platform. If the concept may seem a bit technical, its direct consequence will appeal to the greatest number. The latter will indeed make it possible to considerably reduce the time necessary to update your PC.
