Windows Update primarily uses the HTTP and HTTPS protocols to download updates from Microsoft's servers. Additionally, it can utilize the Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) for managing updates within a network. WSUS communicates over HTTP and HTTPS as well, allowing organizations to control the distribution of updates.
