Samsung Update

Samsung Update (Samsung SW Update) is a highly intuitive system management application that monitors your OS and hardware components, searching online databases for the appearance of new system upgrades, device drivers, firmware’s, and software patches that are needed to keep your home PC and laptop stable and reliable. Built from the ground up to be light on resources, fast and extremely easy to use, Samsung Update application has become one of the basic software tools preinstalled on many Samsung laptops and pre-made desktop PCs sold all over the world.

Studies have shown that regular PC users, both on desktop PCs and laptops, very rarely seek driver updates for their configurations, with a large percentage of them never leaving original drivers, firmware, and software patches that were shipped from the factory. However, this practice leaves those computers left open to possible software instabilities, inability to gain access to new hardware features that are unlocked via drivers, and even leave their personal or work data left open to malicious software that can exploit old unpatched software services.

If you are a user that owns Windows PCs sold by Samsung, this app will streamline your software update procedure, transforming it from slow, unreliable, and rarely used practice into a once-click event that will keep your PC ready for any task. Samsung Update app automates the process of searching and installing new updates.

Installation and Use

Samsung Update can be installed on your PC via an automated installer but be aware that this app is primarily distributed over the internet inside a compressed ZIP archive. That means that you will first have to unpack this archive and then initiate the installer that will guide you through the quick installation procedure with simple on-screen prompts.

Once installed you will see the main interface of this app for the first time. It comes with a white and blue design that is very easy on the eyes. The only thing that you need to do is to find the exact model name of your Samsung PC product, which can be done by simply typing it into the search box (via the model name or a serial number of PC) or manually searching through the list of available models. Once your model is selected, the app will take over and search for the latest versions of software updates and hardware drivers.

In the event that the Samsung SW Update app cannot download and install every update, it has found, the rest of those updates can be handled via the standalone Download Center app.
