    Windows Update Query


    I got a message of new updates available today which includes "Windows Defender" as usual. But there was one more which is.

    "NVIDIA - Display - 12/29/2016 12:00:00 AM - 21.21.13.7653"

    Is it trying to update my Nvidia Drivers? I'm still using version 368.81 which was updated on 14/07/2016.

    Should I update it or let it be?

    :)

    Windows Updates Query

    Hi All,

    I have a query regarding Microsoft Windows Security Patches issued on monthly basis. Currently two types of 3 types of updates are issued by Microsoft on monthly basis i.e. Security Only Quality,Security Monthly Quality Rollup and Preview of Quality rollup.
    I need to know which of these are Critical/Security or Recommended/Optional? If i updated on monthly basis Regularly then which ones I must push to client machines to avoid any issue? Currently i install Security Only and Security Monthly Quality Rollup on
    regualar basis.

    Thank you for the time.

    Regards,

    Hassan

    Yes, that's update to your GPU driver. MS gets drivers from HW manufacturers so it actually comes from Nvidia. Personally I like to have all latest drivers but I get them straight form manufacturer's sites. Occasionally latest driver does not equal greatest but it could always be returned to earlier version.

    So you are suggesting I should get the driver from Nvidia's website. I can get something from Jan cause my current drivers are from July 2016. Cause I have heard downloading drivers from Win update causes issues.

    Thanks for the reply.

    Yes, it's almost always better to get drivers directly from the source.
