Thank you for posting on HP Support Community.

 

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, 
To get the answer to this question,  yes it's absolutely necessary to update Windows. Very often Microsoft rolls out patches to fix the bugs through updates which will enhance computer performance and Windows OS.

Let's try to reset Internet Explorer to fix the browser issue:

  1. Open Internet Explorer, click the Settings icon in the top-right corner and select Internet options.
  2. Select the Advanced tab, and then Reset. In the Reset Internet Explorer Settings dialog box, select Reset.
  3. Restart your computer.

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
