Image Gallery: Windows Update

Posted by Ed Bott

Categories: Uncategorized

Updates ready to install: After the updates are fully downloaded, the shield icon remains visible. If you’ve configured Windows to install the updates automatically, your computer restarts at the time you specify - by default, 3:00AM. You can restart your system earlier to force the updates to install.

    Install them before anything else........ (Read the rest)
