    By default, Windows 10 is set up to automatically download the latest updates for the Windows Operating system as soon as they are available. It is important to allow those updates, as often crucial errors or “bugs” that may make your computer susceptible to a computer virus or malware are fixed or “patched” by updates. When updates are installing, it is important to not turn off your computer until they are completed.
