The pack improves system stability and Cortana performance

Microsoft has provided the download links for its December 8, 2016, Cumulative Firmware and Driver Update package, which installs the 6.0.1.7895 Realtek High Definition Audio (SST) version that improves system stability and Cortana performance.

With this in mind, if you intend to upgrade to this release, you should know that this task can be carried out either automatically via Microsoft’s Windows Update service or manually by downloading and installing the package.

Even though the first method is easier, take into account that not all Surface owners will receive this new firmware at the same time, as the producer provides every new update in stages. In other words, you might need to wait for this December 8, 2016, release to reach your tablet.

However, if you are anxious and want it now, you can also apply it by manually saving and installing one of the two downloadable packages: the ZIP archive (~600MB) or the MSI file (~240MB).

Sill, do not forget that this release is only targeted at Surface Pro 4 tablets that are powered by Microsoft’s Windows 10 operating systems. Also, make sure to reboot your device manually (if not requested automatically) to ensure all changes take effect properly.

That said, download Microsoft Surface Pro 4 Tablet Firmware/Driver December 8, 2016, install it, and check our website as often as possible to be aware when a newer version is available for your tablet.
