Microsoft Windows 11

I have Bios version F26 the new update is F34. When I run the executable (sp153313.exe) it does nothing.  I'm running a HP Pavilion x360 convertible 14m-dw0xxx. I'm not having any problems with the system just to upgrade to the latest Bios.

Looking at your BIOS release history, your F.26 was the last release that actually help with the hardware.

 

It is always dangerous to upgrade bios. Unless there is a real need and the HP support assistant requests the upgrade, I would not do it.  Updates that improve security are needed in a corporate environment but for gaming system they will likely slow down your system. I personally would not upgrade any home or gaming BIOS that was only security related unless the PC was used in a corporate, industrial or military organization.

Check your warranty and decided if you want to risk a BIOS upgrade like these users did
