Following on the heels of Surface Pro 4, Surface Laptop, and Surface Pro (2017), Surface Book 2 has just received a similarly massive set of firmware updates.

“On August 1st we released updates for Surface Book 2 devices running Windows 10 Fall Creators Update version 1709 or greater to Windows Update,” Microsoft’s Scott McArthur writes in the Surface Blog for IT Pros. “These updates provide improvements to system stability and reliability, and resolve potential security vulnerabilities including Microsoft security advisory ADV180012 and ADV180013.”

In other words, they are part of Microsoft’s strategy to help mitigate the impact of the Meltdown and Spectre security vulnerabilities.

And, as was the case with the other recent sets of Surface firmware updates, this is a massive drop of new firmware and drivers.
