Windows 11: Settings, Updates & Accessibility

Find your way around the Windows 11 Settings app. Learn how Windows Update works (including pausing and active hours), check your security protection, and set up the built-in accessibility features such as text size, Magnifier, Narrator, contrast themes and live captions.

Windows 11 changes through regular updates, so some setting names and locations may differ on your PC. Work devices are often managed by IT; follow your organisation’s policies.
