Laptop ignoring Windows 11 security updates
My laptop (with an Intel processor) has not recognised Windows 11 Security Updates 2026-04 and 2026-05. Each time I have got an installation failed message; when I re-try, I get the Windows up-to-dat...
I wouldn't worry just yet. Microsoft often rolls out updates gradually, and a failed update can temporarily stop Windows from offering it again.
Since you're still receiving Defender and Malicious Software Removal Tool updates, your PC is still getting security protection. I'd run the Windows Update Troubleshooter, then check for updates again in a few days. If you're still stuck on the March update, investigate the error code or install the latest cumulative update manually.
