PC Health Check includes diagnostics to monitor device health and troubleshooting to improve performance, all from the ease of a single dashboard," Microsoft says.

"This update will be downloaded and installed automatically from Windows Update," it adds.

Only aimed at Windows 10 version 2004 and later (not Windows 11, though)
