It is important to keep your laptop current with its updates so that all security features are in place and you have access to the latest software. Normally the updates will install themselves in the background as you work throughout the day. If you have stopped the updates from running or have not left the computer on long enough for them to complete, you may need to run them manually.
To Run Updates from Software Center:
- Double-click the Software Center icon on your desktop or in the Start menu.
- Select the Available Software tab (top left)
- Select the updates that are listed.
- Click the blue button to Install Selected Updates.
- You may be prompted to restart your computer at some point during the update. Be sure to do that so the updates can be properly installed.
- Close the Software Center when it is done.
