1. Windows Update: This is the default option for managing and installing updates on a Windows 11 system. Windows Update will automatically download and install important updates when they become available, ensuring that your system is secure and up-to-date.
2. Use a Third-Party Update Manager: If you are looking for more control over the updates that you receive, you can use a third-party update manager to manage Windows 11 updates. Popular third-party update managers include WSUS Offline, Kaspersky Security Center, Ninite, and BITSUM Updater.
3. Use Group Policy Objects (GPOs): For enterprise users, Windows 11 updates can be managed via Group Policy Objects (GPOs). This allows the system administrator to configure certain settings, such as which updates to install and when to install them, at the domain level.
4. Use Windows Update for Business (WUB): Windows Update for Business (WUB) is a service for businesses that allows for better management of Windows 11 updates. WUB enables IT administrators to set policies and update scheduling, choose which devices get updates, and even block certain updates from being installed.
5. Disable Windows Update Entirely: As a last resort, you can disable Windows Update entirely. This is not recommended, as it leaves your system vulnerable to security vulnerabilities. If you decide to disable Windows Update, you should make sure to manually check for and install updates regularly.
