how to find out if certain updates are installed on my computer

Vic6 · 12 May 2017

I am trying to find out if a critical update from Microsoft Security Bulletin MS17-010-Critical Security Update for Microsoft Windows SMB Server (4013389) published March 14, 2017 version 1.0 was installed on my computer.

I am running Windows 10 Pro version 1607 (OS Build 14393.1198). It is set to run update automatically but I have set it to delay the Creators Update (version 1703) because I'm on a limited data plan. As I understand it all security updates should still be installed automatically. I ran windows update this morning and it said my device is up to date.

However because of the ransomware attacks reported to be exploiting a vulnerability related to the update addressed by Microsoft Security Bulletin MS17-010-Critical Security Update for Microsoft Windows SMB Server (4013389) published March 14, 2017 version 1.0, I want to make sure this update is installed but I don't know how to find out if it is.

How can I determine if this, or other critical updates have been installed on my computer?

Thanks for any help you can offer

Hi See Settings, Updates, Update History
or
Control Panel, Programs and Features, Installed Updates.

Cross check with the News section here about the update. In some cases updates were superceded.

However there is no reference to that update- which you mention is for Windows Server?

Further, most updates are cumulative, thus if you have the latest updates, that means you should have the content of all that went before. (And some are being repeated as certain data in them is updated).
