Heads up—Lenovo dropped some driver updates a few days ago
Not sure if anyone else noticed, but Lenovo pushed out some driver updates a couple days ago. Figured other brands probably did the same around that time.
Worth popping into Windows Update real quick to see if anything's sitting there waiting for you. If you see one, go ahead and grab it. If not, just keep an eye out next time you check.
Takes like a minute and might save you from some random headache later on.

Windows 25H2 gradual rollout is picking up steam, and OEMs are pushing driver updates to ensure compatibility with the new kernel changes.
A security vulnerability discovered in a driver that needs patching across all OEMs.
This is a new driver that Lenovo has just released. We recommend installing the update immediately via Windows Update or Lenovo Vantage.
That said, an update is only an improvement if it doesn't cause new problems. There have been some reports that the major August security update (KB5121003) might be causing game crashes for some people, reportedly due to a conflict with a specific third-party driver (inpoutx64.sys) used by some anti-cheat software .
