A notification from the update center indicates that a program update is available.
I have been receiving notifications from the system regarding updates for some of my programs. For instance, yesterday, I received a notification about an update for Corel VideoStudio X10. However, when I clicked on it, the notification disappeared. How can I check which programs have updates and how can I proceed with updating them? I tried searching online but all I found were results related to Windows 11 updates, which is not what I am looking for. I specifically need guidance on updating individual programs. Thank you for your assistance.
