You can update your Surface Laptop Studio to the latest firmware by heading to Windows Settings > Windows Update and clicking "Check for Updates" or downloading a manual installation package. We recommend backing up important data before installing any firmware update since they are non-uninstallable. In case something goes horribly wrong, download the Surface Laptop Studio recovery image that will help you bring the device back to life (you will need to flash it onto a USB drive).
The original Surface Laptop Studio will remain supported until October 5, 2027.
