An anonymous reader writes: If you've ever performed a fresh reinstall of
Windows 11, you'll know how long it takes and how much effort you need to make
to get it started. Fortunately, Microsoft is taking note. As spotted in a recent
update to the Windows 11 beta branch, the company is working on a way to
reinstall your operating system through Windows Update, and no files are lost in
the process. The newest update to the Windows Insider beta branch has added a
new feature titled "Fix Problems using Windows Update." The feature is still a
work in progress, so it doesn't work as it should right now. However, if you're
on the Windows 11 Insider beta branch, you can see the button for yourself on
the Recovery page, among the Windows 11 backup settings.
