Microsoft announces that it will continue to support Huawei equipment in the form of security patches: and the new versions of Windows?
Table of contents:
Reference must be made to the trade war between the United States and China, which in practice has become a battle between the Trump administration and Huawei. A battle that has involved the interests of a large number of American companies, including Microsoft.
Companies from the country of stars and stripes are seeing their interests affected and Microsoft could not get rid of this problem. First, users saw how Huawei products disappeared from the Microsoft Store and then reappeared, although everything indicates that temporarily.And now, there are more movements in this regard.
A little peace of mind
And Microsoft has announced a message that will offer a plus of peace of mind to all those who have some Huawei equipment running Windows . The American company has officially reported that Huawei equipment and devices will continue to receive updates and support.
Good news without a doubt, especially with the ban on the table by the US government for US-based companies to do business with Huawei. In other words, US companies cannot carry out exchanges with Huawei, whether software or hardware. An awkward position for Microsoft.
And in this regard, from the American company they have had no choice but to move token and clarify their position. This has been stated in an official communication in which they clarify the status of the situation regarding the support of products already launched:
A position that coincides with the statements made by Huawei spokespersons a few days ago in which more or less the same , and that therefore all Huawei products will continue to receive security patches, security updates either from Android or, as in this case, from Microsoft.
In this way, all those who have laptops and convertibles from Huawei's MateBook line can rest easy. These will continue to receive driver and security updates on the computers, something that, however, cannot be said if we are talking about new versions of Windows 10. Will these computers receive the long-awaited fall update? That is a question that still has no answer.
