On Windows 11, the system receives maintenance and security updates automatically every month and as required to patch vulnerabilities, fix bugs, improve the overall performance, and (occasionally) add new features. Although this approach keeps devices updated with the latest bits, it's one of the most frustrating features since the quality control of updates has been questionable.
This is not only because they still require a restart to finish applying the changes that can disrupt your workflow but also because the number of updates with bugs negatively affecting the experience has increased significantly in recent years. In the most recent case, I can point out the buggy update that causes devices using encryption to boot into the BitLocker recovery screen, which you can't bypass if you don't provide the recovery key.
