Windows Update is the online extension of Windows that helps you to keep your computer up-to-date. Use Windows Update to choose updates for your computer’s operating system, software, and hardware. New content is added to the site regularly, so you can always get the most recent updates and fixes to protect your computer and keep it running smoothly.
To help protect your computer against viruses you should ensure that you have the latest critical updates for your computer. When security vulnerabilities are found, Microsoft releases security fixes or “patches” to fix the problem. If you do not regularly apply security fixes, your computer will be vulnerable to viruses created to take advantage of the security flaw. Please follow the link below, select the "Scan for Updates" link and install all the critical updates that are found for your computer:

The best way to ensure that you always have the latest updates is to configure your computer to automatically download updates when they are released. For information and instructions on how to set up automatic updates for your operating system, follow the link below:
