Windows 11: Uninstall updates manually (2024)

UPDATED 6/19/2024: On Windows 11, you can uninstall most updates through the Windows Update settings, by using commands with the Command Prompt or PowerShell, or by booting into the Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE) or Safe Mode if the rollout causes problems that prevent the computer from starting properly.

Although Microsoft releases quality updates to fix issues and improve the Windows 11 experience, sometimes they cause more problems than they solve. For example, it's not uncommon for a monthly update to contain bugs that affect features, drivers, compatibility, and other issues that can negatively impact the user experience.

Whether your computer was recently updated automatically or you installed an update manually, you have several options available to remove the update and return your system to its previously known, working state.
