Installing Windows security updates
Updates to the operating system and other software may have become available after the Slate left
the factory. Microsoft® sends out alerts regarding critical updates. To protect the Slate from security

alert.
To be sure that all available updates are installed on the Slate, observe these guidelines:
●
Run Windows Update as soon as possible after you set up your Slate. Tap Start , tap All
Programs , and then tap Windows Update .
●
Run Windows Update monthly thereafter.
●
Obtain updates to Windows and other Microsoft programs, as they are released, from the
Microsoft website and through the updates link in Help and Support.
