Other Windows Updates
These are new programs or systems enhancements that do not have to be installed. In most cases, they are improvements over common Windows features. We install the most recent versions when we install your hardware. Over time we may contact areas and inform them that they need to do a Windows Update to improve the way their computer is working.
