A new pack of improvements is live for Windows 11

Moment 2 is the most recent pack of improvements available for Windows 11, and given the impressive feature lineup, which includes tab support in Notepad, video recording in Snipping Tool, and an AI-powered search experience in the taskbar, it’s no surprise many users rushed to download it.

Windows 11 Moment 2 is already available for users who run Windows 11 version 22H2.

However, these users need to go to Windows Update and Manually check for updates. The experience is therefore aimed at those referred to by Microsoft as seekers, so you won’t get the update without doing this manually.

On the other hand, Microsoft says it will begin the automatic release of Moment 2 next month on Patch Tuesday.

The improvements are shipped as Windows update KB5022913, so it should install flawlessly on Windows 11 devices out there.

“Windows is delighted to deliver on our promise to bring exciting new experiences to Windows 11 more frequently in our continuing commitment to innovate in ways that matter to you. With this update, we are bringing the power of the new AI-powered Bing and additional new features to make staying connected—whether it be to the people or information you care about—easier, for everyone,” Microsoft announced.

The company hasn’t provided any information on how users running an older version of Windows 11 would be able to update to Moment 2, but given this is aimed at version 22H2, installing this particular release first probably be recommended.

“These new experiences will start to become available today, via Windows Update and new apps available via Microsoft Store updates. Users with eligible devices running Windows 11, version 22H2 who are interested in experiencing these new features now, can choose to do so by opening Windows Update settings (Settings > Windows Update) and selecting Check for updates. We anticipate full availability of the new features delivered via Windows Update in the March 2023 monthly security update release,” the company says.
