Windows 11 Moment 5 is the latest version of Windows 11, released on April’s Patch Tuesday. Moment 5 prepares for the update to Windows 11 version 24H2, which will be released later this year, and adds some new features intended to simplify and streamline everyday tasks in Windows.

This is accompanied by the new update KB5036893 (fave.co/3QEVdnR), which activates the new features from Windows 11’s Moment 5 on compatible computers. In addition to the new features listed below, Microsoft also made some improvements under the hood with this new Windows 11 update. USB ports can now deliver up to 80Gbps, but the hardwired connections in your laptop or desktop must be technically capable of handling the higher specification. 

HOW TO GET WINDOWS 11 MOMENT 5 FASTER

If Windows 11 Moment 5 is not yet installed on your PC and is not offered in Windows Update, activate the “Get the latest updates as soon as they’re available” function in Settings > Windows Update.

If you then check for updates again, there is a good chance that new features will be available more quickly. If this does not work, you can also use the Windows 11 installation wizard.

Now let’s dive into the good stuff!
