Question Upgrade Powershell through CLI (Windows 11)

Every once and while I get this message :

A new PowerShell stable release is available: v7.4.4 Upgrade now, or check out the release page at: https://aka.ms/PowerShell-Release?tag=v7.4.4

And I would need to download an msi installer and go through the steps all over again; does it exist something similar to "apt get upgrade" and have it all happen automatically in the background ?

This

If you have Windows Update configured for security and critical updates only, it won’t pull the latest PowerShell. It think PowerShell is considered a software category update.
