Hello !

I have deactivated the automatic driver update under windows 10.

Nevertheless, I have updates such as. "HP Inc. - SoftwareComponent - 4.2.263.0" found in my update list !??

can I install this without hesitation because I have heard drivers only install from HP myself!

I don't know why, but looks like your machine is running behind.

My update ran on October 24, 2020 at the SAME time with Windows 10 updates.

 

Regards.
