Microsoft Issues Firmware Updates for Surface Book and Surface Pro 4

Last night, Microsoft issued major new firmware updates for both Surface Book and Surface Pro 4. As with the previous updates for these systems this month, both only apply to those who have installed the Anniversary Update.

Note: I’m embarrassed to say I didn’t even realize these updates had shipped until late today. Not sure how that happened. But…
