No computer program is ever 100% static. Over time, errors or bugs in a program are fixed and/or new features are implemented. These changes take place in updates to the program.
Most computers have dozens of programs installed on them, ranging from the operating system to various application programs. Each program is subject to the update process.
So how do you make sure that your computer programs are all up-to-date? One answer is to use a program called Update Checker (www.filehippo.com/updatechecker/) from FileHippo.com.
Update Checker runs on a PC that has the .NET framework. It searches your PC for currently installed software releases and returns the list to FileHippo.com. (Note: FileHippo.com does not store information about your PC or its programs.) FileHippo.com determines if there are newer releases available and returns a list that can be used to download and install the appropriate updates.
Update Checker is not perfect. It does not work on all software. However, it can help to easily keep your software as up-to-date as possible.
