Windows 8 Updates
Kevin Lynn
If you are running Windows 8.1, you should perform the free update to windows 8.1 before Tuesday, June 10.
When Microsoft released the first feature update for Windows 8.1, which it called Windows 8.1 Update,
it announced that it would stop releasing updates for Windows 8.1 without that update shortly after release. This meant that Windows 8.1 users had to install the feature update on their system to receive future updates after that point in time.
This makes it a mandatory update for all users of Windows 8.1 -- but not Windows 8 -- as it leaves the system vulnerable to security issues if not updated.
Microsoft has instructions on how to update Win 8 to version 8.1.
