We're piloting hotpatch -- this month we got an additional patch on some devices that got the hotpatch CU. It's a powershell security update, KB5061096, -- and Windows calls for a restart after applying it. The KB indicates that this applies to hotpatched devices and may call for a restart, so it seems expected. Any comments on that? Hopefully we don't expect that to be the norm.

Hi CaseyB, Hotpatching gets you secure faster without requiring the user to restart the device. The KB5061096 article does state if a PowerShell session is active, then a computer restart might be required. Other types of updates may require restarts too. Hotpatching's goal is to get you secure faster, but other update types could require a restart.
