I see videos about "Moment 2" but I don't know what it is...

    I can find a lot of Windows guidance and advice type sites but nothing on a Microsoft site that addresses the OP's heading "What is a moment update".

    -Why is Microsoft delivering Moment updates?

    -What type of updates can a user expect in a Moment?

    -How often will they occur?

    -Is a moment a preview release that will later be incorporated into a roll-up?

    -etc

    I know some of the answers via 3rd party sites but they tend to cherry pick and re-write. There is nothing that is as accurate as the official advice. If the information exists in a Microsoft blog, I ran out of patience before finding it.

    EDIT: There is no mention of 'moment' in update terminology

    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/windows-client/deployment/standard-terminology-software-updates

    The nearest would be 'feature pack'.

    OP in my experience, it is not good practice for 'normal users' to manually install any update via settings, windows update that requires you to click a button. Be patient. New features will roll out at a later date. By then other 'real world' testers are likely to have uncovered any bugs (as happened with this months KB5022913 - some 3rd party utilities clashed with the the changed code: https://www.techgoing.com/microsoft-says-tools-like-startallback-are-incompatible-with-the-kb5022913-update/

    I understand the issue you have, there is nothing to worry I am here to help, moment update is the Windows update for insider preview which has user interface updates (Taskbar, start menu, and customization) as of the moment these updates have not yet confirmed, for more information about Moment 1 and 2 kindly refer to the link below:

    Note: This is a non-Microsoft website. The page appears to be providing accurate, safe information. Watch out for ads on the site that may advertise products frequently classified as a PUP (Potentially Unwanted Products). Thoroughly research any product advertised on the site before you decide to download and install it.

    Let me know how it goes and I hope that helps.
