Installing critical security updates
CAUTION: Microsoft® sends out alerts regarding critical updates. To protect the computer from

guidelines:

● 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. To access Help and
Support, from the Start screen, type help, and then select Help and Support.
