Why your computer/laptop needs to restart to install update❓

Whether it’s for software updates or just when installing, uninstalling, or updating software, Windows will often ask to reboot.When a computer is running software, it loads much of the program into its memory.If we managed to update that same software on the hard disk or solid state drive (SSD), then the program may panic as everything will be different – it won’t be able to find the files that were there a moment ago.

📌To prevent this, operating systems usually insist that when major updates are needed, we shut down the software being updated, then restart with the new software installed.
