Microsoft is rolling out a series of new firmware updates for its Surface Pro 7 devices. This is the first firmware update of the year for Surface Pro 7 owners, and it doesn’t include any new features. The January 2021 firmware update is meant to improve security and overall system stability, and you can check out the full list of changes below:
- Intel® iCLS Client – Software components: 1.61.251.0 Addresses security updates and improves system stability.
- Intel® Management Engine Interface -System devices: 2031.15.0.1743 Addresses security updates and improves system stability.
- (Intel® Management Engine Extension) – no Device Manager notes: 1952.14.0.1470 Addresses security updates and improves system stability.

- Surface ME – Firmware: 13.0.1594.2 Addresses security updates and improves system stability.

As with most Surface updates, these updates will be rolling out in phases, so it might be a while before all devices receive the bits through Windows Update. In addition to this, the first-generation Surface Studio also received a fresh firmware update earlier this month. It addresses some important issues, including a bugcheck that occurs when devices resume from hibernation.
