October 29, 2025Firmware Update from Windows Update?
Dell does publish firmware updates via Windows Update. In fact its the only way that the new Snapdragon-based systems are allowed to get updates (Example: Inspiron 14 3420 ). That said, sometimes Windows Update sometimes thinks the firmware updates are related to a system when they don't. The update you're seeing absolutely doesn't apply and is actually older then the BIOS you have installed, being released in 2021!: https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/ScopedViewInline.aspx?updateid=f4ac793c-cb82-4b32-a4c1-c9dfdafe37ad You can ignore the update. If you where to try to install it the update would just fail with a not compatible error. Edit: If you actually download the update package and tear into it, the update is actually for a Latitude 3470: com.dell.uefi8661c04a.firmware 8661c04a-bf3e-47db-a133-ef36a2a91196 Latitude 3470 System Update Firmware for the Dell Latitude 3470

Hi George Graham: What is your Dell computer model, version and OS build number of your Windows 10 operating system [open a Run dialog box (Windows key + R) and enter winver - be sure to let us know if you have a Home or Pro edition of Win 10], CPU make and model, and BIOS version? To find your current BIOS version open a Run dialog box, enter msinfo32 to open your System Information, and look for the field named 'BIOS Version / Date' in the summary. Have you recently run a check for updates using a utility like SupportAssist v4.x or Dell Update v5.x to ensure all available updates for your BIOS, firmware and hardware drivers are installed? Please clarify what you mean by 'windows 11 assistant' (e.g., do you mean the Windows 11 Installation Assistant at https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows11)? Do you know of any reason why Windows Update (Settings | Update & Security | Windows Update) is not offering to install the upgrade to Windows 11? For example, if you have a Windows 10 Pro OS is it possible you configured the Target Release Version (TRV) in your Local Group Policy Editor to Windows 10 / 22H2 to block the upgrade to Windows 11? -----------Dell Inspiron 15 5584 * 64-bit Win 10 Pro v22H2 build 19045.6456 * Firefox v144.0.0 * Microsoft Defender v4.18.25090.3009-1.1.25090.3001 * Malwarebytes Premium v5.4.2.217-143.0.5407 * Macrium Reflect Free v8.0.7783 * My Dell v2.2.6.0 * Fusion Service 2.2.14.0

r/Dell on Reddit: Firmware Update from Windows Update?
July 3, 2024 -
Hello Everyone. Hope you're well. I have a Dell G15 5515 (Ryzen Edition) Laptop.
Windows Update shows up this firmware update 1.19.0. I currently have 1.16.0 BIOS installed. I always updated my BIOS from Dell Update and manually with the executable.
Weeks ago I don't know what happened but dell update app showed an update but suddenly disappeared after some days before this.
On dell support webpage the version 1.16.0 is the lastest available the 1.19.0 doesn't appear.
I've never had problems with BIOS updates and I don't really know if it's good idea to update to that version from Windows Update.
Shall I update it from Windows Update? Or anyone has this version.
I'm about to reinstall Windows to have a clean install because I have a lot of stuff I don't really need.
Someone knows if it will update the firmware automatically? Thankfuly it didn't.
I will be waiting for your answers, I appreciate it very much.
Edit:
Just used my computer today, and Windows downloaded and forced me to install the firmware update (turn off and update, and restart and update) It successfully updated. And now my laptop is on BIOS version 1.19.0. just installed and didn't noticed something bad. edit this comment if I found something weird. attach the link to the video of the entire process that recorded.

The Dell firmware (BIOS) updates seem to be new in Windows 11 Windows Update. I don't recall seeing that in Windows 10 and below. I don't know why it only mentions "firmware" and not explicitly "BIOS" but it's def the BIOS. And the firmware update history is listed under "Driver Updates."
