To keep your Surface Laptop Go 3 performing its best, make sure that you have the latest Surface updates.

How to get updates

Surface updates are released in stages—not every Surface will receive updates at the same time, but they'll be delivered to all devices. If you haven’t previously received updates, you can manually update by following the steps at Download drivers and firmware for Surface

You can quickly check the health of your Surface drivers and firmware using the Surface app.

Open the Surface app

  1. In the Surface app, expand Help & support to check the update status.

  2. If there are updates available, select the Check for updates button to open Windows Update and install the available updates.

Notes: 

  • Firmware updates can’t be uninstalled or reverted to an earlier version.
