Windows updates

 

If you left click on the Windows Flag and go into “Settings” and click on “About”, you will see what version of Windows 10 you are running. For Windows 11 its also “Settings” but then type into the search box “About” and in “Windows Specifications” and “Edition” you will see the version you are running. Anyway, back to W10. If you are on Version 20H2, oh yes what do these numbers mean. Well the first 2 digits are the year. The ‘H’ means Half and the final digit is either 1 or 2 and that’s the half of the year ie 20H2 means 2020 2nd half of that year (October). Support for this version finished on 10th May this year so you will not get anymore updates for it. Now go into “Update and security” will see there will be a “Download and install” optional update for a new version. You should now install it to give you continued protection. When installed you can go back to the start of this message to check that your version of Windows 10 has actually updated.
