Here is another program that can keep track of whether all your programs are updated. It is important that you always update your programs due. security, but also because they will work best. Obviously, every time a new version comes up, the company behind the program has probably fixed a lot of bugs, as well as checked for the safety of using the program.
The program is called Secunia Personal Software Inspector, and is clearly the best I’ve tried. It actually finds all my programs that I have installed, and has not yet experienced that it cannot go to their website to download the latest version of their program. It is a bit slow just when you start the program the first time, but it also has to scan your computer through for software.

1. Once the program is installed and started, it will stand and scan your pc through – just wait, it took 3 min.

4. Then you will automatically enter their website, where you can download the last version. It’s pretty smart since you’re free Get to open a browser and find their website to update.
