-->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.
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 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.
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.

Description
Surface Pro 2 Manual Download Windows 10
The Surface Pro 2 has the same 10.6' 1920x1080 pixels ClearType display like its predecessor, but this time with 46% better color accuracy and record low reflectivity, nearly identical with the sRGB color gamut coverage. That is aimed at making it a device for professionals and screen purists alike, but also to make outdoor visibility better for the average user as well.The new Surface Pro 2 is equipped with the Haswell architecture of Intel's Core i5 processor, meaning it marks strides in battery life compared to its predecessor - 75% improvement, or between 7-10 hours, depending on the usage. The unit has also been made much quieter, though that still means you are likely to see a fan inside.
