question

Hey Guys I am new to this forum and I love computers since second grade built my first one in 2010 and loved it since built lots more since, Have lots of computer parts. My question is I running win 7 on a 250GB ssd and I am wondering how do you guys download updates do you use windows update or do you use different methods? I look forward to hearing from you thanks. Which method do you recommend?

What updates are you talking about? Ones from Microsoft for Windows itself (security updates), or driver updates that windows update lets you know about but are for other software/hardware devices that your computer has?

I think we all just use microsoft's own update manager for windows.
There are some third party programs that can update windows, (Like "Windows Update MiniTool") but i don't understand why anyone would bother.

If you really want your mind blown...download windows 10 and watch as the operating system magically does updates for you.

True, but I think he was thinking more along the lines of upgrading to 10 because its still free and he'll have an up to date OS for years to come.
Yeah, for once, I was only being half smart-ass.

Windows 10 is great for the lazy and forgetful such as myself..
