Microsoft says:

Windows Autopatch is enabling hotpatching by default because hotpatch updates are the quickest way to get secure. As such, we recommend keeping hotpatch updates enabled for your devices. If you're not ready for this change, you can opt out groups of devices or the whole tenant.

The tenant setting to opt out of hotpatch updates is scheduled to go live on April 1, 2026. And because April is a hotpatch baseline month, you have until May 11, 2026 before any hotpatch updates are deployed.

Currently, hotpatching is only available on select Enterprise or Education editions for W11 24H2 and later.

Maybe one day it will appear for consumer Windows, but it's limited for systems that are managed by an enterprise-level patching tool.
