Windows updates
The Windows operating system is constantly being updated and enhanced
with functional additions and fixes for emerging security issues etc. When
Windows asks you to update the operating system it is advised that you do
so for your own benefit. When you first get your tablet there may be a large
amount of updates that need to be downloaded and run. Please be patient
with this update process, it may take a long time to complete.
You may prefer to leave your tablet switched on and connected to power and
wifi to allow it to complete these all at once.
To prevent it going to sleep during this process go to Settings (swipe in
from the right hand side of the screen, change PC settings, PC and devices,
power and sleep. Leave the ‘On battery power’ setting but change the ‘When
plugged in, turn off after’ settings to never.
Now set update and recovery as follows. Settings (swipe in from the right
hand side of the screen, change PC settings, update and recovery, Windows
update. Check now. This will connect you to Microsoft’s website and will
offer you updates
You can also manage how you receive your updates in this menu option
but we recommend that you leave this set to the default ‘Install updates
automatically’.
Windows 10
When Windows 10 is ready this may also be offered as a free upgrade to
existing Windows users (for a period after its release). This download is going
to be huge and is likely to take hours to complete. Disabling sleep in ‘on
power mode’ as shown above, may be useful during this and any other very
long download. At the end of the download you will need to restart for the
updates to install.
