1.6.4.1 Windows Update
Windows Update is a Web-based service that scans the local computer, determines which updates have not
been installed, and then displays potential updates and provides a convenient interface for installing them.
You can access the Windows Update site with the shortcut installed by default in the Start menu, or by
going to the Windows Update site at
http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/
.
Once the site is displayed, you click the Scan For Updates link to scan the computer. After the scan
completes, Windows Update displays a list of available updates. Critical updates and new service packs are
listed first, followed by non-critical operating system updates and updated hardware drivers. Click the Add
button next to an update description to add the update to the list of updates to install. After you are finished
adding items, click the Review And Install Updates link to install the updates.
