Windows 10 uses machine learning to prevent updates from restarting the machine

Microsoft released two versions of build numbers 17723 and 18204 for its Windows 10 operating system for computers, with the first version 17723 on the Redstone update, the Windows 10 update that the company plans to release. to publish later this year. Updated 19H1, and as its name indicates, this update is expected to arrive in the first half of next year.

It is rare for Windows Insider users to get two new releases the same day, the last time in March, and it seems that the company is able to develop two Windows 10 updates at the same time, The company has released five major updates: the November update, the creators update, the Fall Creators update and the April 2018 update.

The Windows Insider program allows its subscribers to benefit from new experimental features And access to the rest of the devices via stable copies, Microsoft is continuing its release of Windows 10 previews, which it considers as more than an operating system final, allowing it to continue adding enhancements and changes.

The biggest change in the new releases is that Microsoft is now using predictive algorithms to try to determine the right time to restart the computer when installing Windows 10 updates. in other words, the operating system will avoid restart at inappropriate times, for example when the device is used to perform an operation.

Since the launch of Windows 10 three years ago, Microsoft constantly talks about operating system updates, interfering with users' work by automatically installing them and restarting the computer, resulting in the loss of user activity.

The company explains that it has found a solution to this problem: "We are checking if you are currently using a device before the system restarts and we are trying to predict Machine to eat a cup of coffee and come back soon after. "

The operating system's ability to start installing updates when the user is using the device is the # 39, one of the most troublesome aspects of Windows 10. Although the company has attempted to solve this problem by adding features to the delay, Use.

The company says that it can update the predictive model fairly quickly, so it should improve in a short time, making it more reliable and personalized over time based on user habits and the use of the computer.

Dona Sarkar, Windows Insider Program Manager, explains, "The company has formed a predictive model that predicts the best time to restart the machine through automated learning." The company was testing this new model internally and stated to have promising results. Giant software is constantly updating this model based on its adoption of cloud services.

These versions also have a new feature of mixed reality called Flashlight, which allows the user to view his physical environment without removing the glasses, allowing to see the real world at any time, and to access to this feature via the Start menu or the shortcut Or by voice commands, and Flashlight opens a low-response camera connected to the console for a real look.
