Still longing for the Windows 11 Moment 4 update? Well, Microsoft is rolling out the KB5031455 update for noninsiders, and it looks like we’re getting a glimpse of Moment 4 in this.

The update includes a plethora of things, including improvements for Copilot, File Explorer, the new Backup app, native RAR support, and more. All that, besides a healthy amount of improvements and bug fixes here and there. 

Microsoft also says that some of these updates are being rolled out gradually. That means, even if it says that Copilot is included, you may not still be able to access it after the update. 

“The update to Windows 11, version 22H2 coming on September 26, 2023, will be broadly available to Windows customers around the world. Copilot in Windows will start to release in preview to a select set of global markets. It is our intention to continue to broaden availability over time,” says Microsoft. 

To download and install an optional update, open the Settings app and go to Update & Security > Windows Update. Under the Optional Updates available section, you’ll find a link to download and install the update.
