Install Windows Updates
We have noticed many computers on the network not receiving the critical Windows Updates recently, so we are needing to ask you to manually initiate the process when your computer can be utilized, to do so.
What that means is, depending on the number of Windows Updates your computer needs, will depend on the amount of time and bandwidth required to patiently allow the updates to be detected, downloaded, installed and more than likely, requires a computer restart.
Please make sure before you attempt to initiate the Windows Update process, to close all running applications first, such as Outlook, Excel, web browsers, etc.
The video instructions in this post refer to the latest Windows operating system, Windows 11.
Screenshots of the process for Windows 10 are included in this post and are very similar, if not identical to the same process for Windows 11 but wanted to include them as well.
