Hi @ALM24,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community!

 

Thanks for reaching out!

We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.

 

I understand you want to check for updates on your Windows 11 system. Let’s go through a few steps to make sure everything is up to date.

Check for Windows updates
Click Start > Settings > Windows Update, then select Check for updates. Install all available updates and restart the computer if prompted.

Install optional driver updates
In Windows Update, select Advanced options > Optional updates. If driver updates are listed, install them, as these often include system and device driver fixes.

Check HP-specific updates
Open HP Support Assistant on your laptop. Go to Updates and install any recommended BIOS, firmware, or driver updates.

Update apps from Microsoft Store
Open the Microsoft Store, select Library, then click Get updates. This ensures apps like HP Smart and Windows Scan are current.

Restart after updates
After installing updates, restart the computer to allow changes to fully apply and ensure system stability.

I hope this helps.
