Not done: it's not clear what changes you want made. Please detail the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. Please clarify what you mean by "the time between the Windows updates" and where this appears in the article. Day Creature (talk) 21:10, 20 July 2026 (UTC)
