Windows 11 Update Causes Multiple Reboots
Microsoft's latest update to Windows 11 has caused multiple reboots on some PCs, particularly when installing the Secure Boot certificate. The company explains that this is a normal part of the update process, as it involves writing changes into the firmware.
The Secure Boot certificate update requires multiple reboots to complete, which can be frustrating for users who experience long installation times or get stuck on a black screen. However, Microsoft assures that once the certificates are updated, users won't see these multiple reboots anymore.
Microsoft is testing a single-reboot approach, where Windows only reboots once a month for all updates, including .NET Framework. This change could make future updates less frustrating for users.
