Updating software blocks up to 85% of web attack angles.
When you have to maintain multiple pc's/laptops in your household and family a red colored Secunia PSI means that pc needs attention.I was using Secunia psi but not anymore and I think we don't need these tools because you can update everything manually.
Tools like Secunia are not recommended anymore because they eat ram and CPU and probably contain some Adware :/
I use the same. Ninite too sometimes.I use patch my pc : Patch My PC - Patch Management Made Easy and Secunia (now Flexera) PSI: Personal Software Inspector
....... to many ppl don't know the difference between basic computer stuff in every Country ...... sooo ---I know but every time I tried Secunia, it was freeze, buggy and slow.
And about family, they don't care about this stuff:notworthy:
80% of ppl in my country don't even know what is Adblocker.
They don't even know the difference between adware and ransomware
I'm also using patch my pc and kaspersky software updater is also very good software.When you have to maintain multiple pc's/laptops in your household and family a red colored Secunia PSI means that pc needs attention.
For example for Skype for desktop that my kids use I always find updates with Patch My PC.I just don't understand why a person needs a software updater.
Some softwares update when you reboot, and others update when you run them.
If you don't run the software, it won't hurt you, right? So as soon as you run it, you will get your update prompt, or whatever.
I suppose if you don't reboot every day, then you might want to have a software updater. But why not just reboot?
