  2. windows 10 mcpc drivers outdated

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

    I would suggest you download latest drivers from Manufacturer's Website.

    Follow the steps to update the drivers:

    • Press Windows key + X key and click on
      Device Manager.
    • Expand respective driver. (The driver which was stated to be outdated.)
    • Right-click on the driver and
      select Uninstall.
    • Now, go to the Manufacturer's Website and download the latest driver.
    • Once the download is complete, run the setup file and install the software.
    • Follow on-screen instructions.
    • Restart the computer and check
    Hope this helps. Please respond if you have further related queries.

    Regards,

    Windows Update suddenly hangs?

    Windows Update is suddenly hanging for some reason... I went and downloaded and installed the first bunch of updates, restarted when asked, and now when I go back to windows update I just get the window with a white box forever. Reboot and it still does it. This happens to be on my main machine, running windows 7.

    I've also noticed when I reboot it says configuring windows update, step 3 of 3, 47%. Maybe it somehow skipped something and is screwed forever?

    [Windows 10] hide/prohibit install of specific Windows Update

    setting it up on a laptop and having everything work without needing outdated drivers from the manufs website is amazing, and i generally just update graphics driver and wifi driver on top (in which case W10 has been great and gotten the most recent for both, anyway)
