Software Update, an integrated tool within Glary Utilities, ensures that your computer software stays current by providing timely notifications about available updates. This free utility conducts thorough scans of your system, alerting you to any programs that require updating to their latest versions. It conveniently provides direct links for software updates and offers relevant information about each program.
Privacy and Security:
Software Update exclusively scans the software name and version number, with our server refraining from recording this information or any other personal details. Rest assured that your privacy is safeguarded, and user information remains confidential, with no disclosure to third parties.
How to Use Software Update:
1. Open Glary Utilities and click on the Software Update icon in the toolbar. The top right corner of the icon displays the number of detected pending software updates.

3. Clicking “Scan” “Rescan” or the “You have N new updates available” hyperlink will automatically redirect you to the software update details webpage. Here, you can review information about pending software updates, download them, and proceed with the installation. Alternatively, you can click “×” to ignore a particular version.
Customize Results:
You can customize your results by clicking on the top left corner to switch to the “Customize Results” view. This allows you to choose whether to “Show all versions,” “Ignore this version,” or “Ignore all versions.”
In the top right corner, the “Options” menu allows you to decide whether to “Show Details” or “Ignore beta versions.”
