Microsoft is opening Windows Update to any third-party app for updates, enabling developers to sign up for a private preview of the Windows Update orchestration platform.
Developers can schedule updates based on user activity, battery status, and energy timing using the Windows Update orchestration platform.
The platform allows app developers to hook into Windows Update notifications, be listed in the update history, and support various types of apps for future improvements to the platform.
This move by Microsoft aims to streamline app updates within the Windows ecosystem, potentially appealing to businesses and developers looking for a unified update solution.
