-# Deploy the latest firmware and drivers for Surface devices
-
-> **Home users:** This article is only intended for technical support agents and IT professionals, and applies only to Surface devices. If you're looking for help to install Surface updates or firmware on a home device, please see [Update Surface firmware and Windows 10](https://support.microsoft.com/help/4023505).
-
-Under typical conditions, Windows Update automatically keeps Windows Surface devices up-to-date by downloading and installing the latest device drivers and firmware. However, you may sometimes have to download and install updates manually. For example, you may have to manually manage updates when you deploy a new version of Windows.
-
-## Downloading MSI files
-
-[Download drivers and firmware for Surface](https://support.microsoft.com/help/4023482/surface-download-drivers-and-firmware-for-surface) provides links to download installation files for the following:
-
-- Administrative tools
-- Drivers for accessories
-- For some devices, updates for Windows
-
-## Deploying MSI files
-
-Specific versions of Windows 10 have separate MSI files. Each MSI file contains all required cumulative driver and firmware updates for Surface devices.
-
-The MSI file names contain useful information, including the minimum supported Windows build number that is required to install the drivers and firmware. For example, to install the drivers that are contained in SurfaceBook_Win10_17763_19.080.2031.0.msi on a Surface Book, the device must be running Windows 10 Fall Creators Update, version 1709 or later.
-
-For more information about build numbers for each Windows version, see [Windows 10 release information](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/windows-10/release-information).
-
-### Surface MSI naming convention
-
-Beginning in August, 2019, MSI files have used the following naming convention:
-
-> *Product*\_*Windows release*\_*Windows build number*\_*Version number*\_*Revision of version number (typically zero)*.
-
-**Example**
-
-Consider the following MSI file:
-
-> SurfacePro6_Win10_18362_19.073.44195_0.msi
-
-This file name provides the following information:
-
-- **Product:** SurfacePro6
-- **Windows release:** Win10
-- **Build:** 18362
-- **Version:** 19.073.44195 – This shows the date and time that the file was created, as follows:
- - **Year:** 19 (2019)
- - **Month and week:** 073 (third week of July)
- - **Minute of the month:** 44195
-- **Revision of version:** 0 (first release of this version)
-
-### Legacy Surface MSI naming convention
-
-Legacy MSI files (files that were built before August, 2019) followed the same overall naming formula, but used a different method to derive the version number.
-
-**Example**
-
-Consider the following MSI file:
-
-> SurfacePro6_Win10_16299_1900307_0.msi
-
-This file name provides the following information:
-
-- **Product:** SurfacePro6
-- **Windows release:** Win10
-- **Build:** 16299
-- **Version:** 1900307 – This shows the date that the file was created and its position in the release sequence, as follows:
- - **Year:** 19 (2019)
- - **Number of release:** 003 (third release of the year)
- - **Product version number:** 07 (Surface Pro 6 is officially the seventh version of Surface Pro)
-- **Revision of version:** 0 (first release of this version)
-
-Use the **version** number to determine the latest files that contain the most recent security updates. For example, consider the following list:
-
-- SurfacePro6_Win10_16299_1900307_0.msi
-- SurfacePro6_Win10_17134_1808507_3.msi
-- SurfacePro6_Win10_17763_1808707_3.msi
-
-In this list, the newest file is the first file (SurfacePro6_Win10_16299_1900307_0.msi). Its **Version** field has the newest date (2019). The other files are from 2018.
-
-## Supported devices
-
-For downloadable MSI files for devices that run Surface Pro 2 and later versions, see [Download drivers and firmware for Surface](https://support.microsoft.com/help/4023482/surface-download-drivers-and-firmware-for-surface). This article contains information about MSI files for the newest Surface devices such as Surface Pro 7, Surface Pro X, and Surface Laptop 3, as they are released.
-
-> [!NOTE]
-> There are no downloadable firmware or driver updates available for Surface devices that run Windows RT, including Surface RT and Surface 2. To update these devices, use Windows Update.
