Running updates on electronic devices is a generally accepted cost of using electronic devices. Mobile devices such as your cell phone consistently need updates in order to run smoothly and provide you with the most secure experience possible. Your Burg Simpson devices are no different. These are the instructions to update any Windows device (laptop or desktop) in our office.


  1. At the bottom left, click the Start Menu
  2. At the bottom left of the Start Menu, click the Gear Icon (settings)
  3. When the Settings menu opens, click the bottom option for Update and Security
  4. Under Windows Update, choose "Check for Updates"
  5. Install any updates that are available
  6. Once all updates have installed and now say "Restart Required," restart your computer to finish installing the updates
  7. Repeat steps 1 - 6 until all updates have been installed.


These updates provide critical security and stability updates that keep your computer functioning at the highest possible capacity while remaining as secure as possible.


As a general rule of thumb, these updates should be performed at least 1 time a week. We generally recommend doing them Friday afternoon before leaving for work so that your computer is not only refreshed, but also updated when you return to the office on Monday.
