Yes it does? As far as I'm aware even Linux can't apply updates to an active system.

You vastly misunderstand both what I am talking about, and how updates work on both Windows and Linux.

You don't press shut down and then get a blue updating screen that stops you from doing anything on Linux. Go and update a Linux system and you will see what I am talking about. You run it just like a normal command or program.

Also yes they update the files on the drive while the system is running.
