Device Manager - Device Driver Updates - Windows 10 - 1903

Hello Everyone

So we have upgraded to Windows 10 1903. When we go into device manager and try to update device drivers I.E System Firmware - Update Driver and Search Automatically for updated Driver Software it comes back and tells us Windows has determined that the best driver for this device is already installed.

When we do this on an older release 1703 it comes back and installs the driver for the system firmware as it should. I.E ThinkPad X1 Carbon System Firmware 1.24

This is on the same modules of the Thinkpad X1 Carbon's.

Any ideas or is this a bug that Microsoft is working on.

Thanks

Update your drivers and BIOS/UEFI firmware from PC or motherboard maker's Support Downloads web page, using the full model number, Serial Number or Dell Service Tag on sticker. Compare the latest drivers available for download with the ones presently installed in Device Manager reached by right clicking the Start Menu. Make sure you have the latest BIOS or UEFI firmware, Chipset, Display (Video), Sound, USB3, Bluetooth, Network and all other drivers, or else download and install the latest now.

Updating drivers from the Device Manager or Windows Update is rarely enough. The most basic thing we need to learn to maintain a PC is keep the latest manufacturer's drivers installed from their Support Downloads web page.

I hope this helps. Feel free to ask back any questions and keep me posted. I will keep working with you until it's resolved.
