  4. Click on "Check for updates" or " Check online for updates from Microsoft Update"  to see if your computer is up-to-date, or if there are any updates available. Your computer will also show the date and time of when it was last updated.image




  5. If there were updates available, they'll begin to download automatically. Once they finished downloading, they will install until all updates will show as "pending to restart". Once you see all updates pending to restart, you will go ahead and restart your computer and let it finish updating.image
