To my horror I am getting a message to say that my F Secure protection is not up to date and I can see that ceratin updates have failed to install on my Windows 10 Toshiba laptop.

 

How do I rectify this please?

Many Thanks

    Hi,

     

    Rebooting the PC is done! Nothing has changed.

     

    The subscription is valid. Successful update search. Last try today on 02:33 pm.

    Do not know what I have to do.

     

    Thank you for the help,

     

    Regards,

    Didn't understand!!!

     

    I just installed my Nvidia graphic driver, had a look on F-Secure. Last update on 02:50 pm.

     

    F-Secure is okay. Very good, but why?

    Hey,

    Typical reason for this is some database update required reboot so product started refusing to update anymore after that as a result.

    This is happening to me too. There are about 6 updates in a queue. I don't know how to reboot, technically. Please advise.

    Hello,

     

    If your experience is also about Windows 10 (or most of Windows) -> should be possible to do steps like:

    Go to Start(Microsoft Windows-logo), select the Power(PowerOn button-logo) button, and then select Restart.

     

    src of tips is https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/search?query=reboot%20Windows%2010

     

    Or another third-party article with some steps to do it:

    After restart/reboot system -> some minutes are needed (most likely); then if there is still some 'updates' in a queue - good to try one else restart/reboot system. In general, if trouble is still there - good to re-ask (what if another fix steps are needed).

     

    Thanks!
