Aspire E5-575G-77FW Video Drivers - Please update! Or we won't get any Windows Update

My laptop is still stuck on Windows Build 1803, and this is unacceptable.

Not even build 1809. Why?

Please have a look at the video drivers of this laptop. We still have, for the Intel gpu, driver v.23.20.16.5038 that Acer hasn't updated since 18th April 2018!

This prevents Windows update, - not just 1903, but also the previous major one - because the drivers are too old. And the "manual update" via Intel site is not possible, since the Intel drivers on this laptop are proprietary, and we are supposed to wait till Acer will update them.

Honestly, this is just odd. I have an i7 machine that can't update Windows for this silly reason.

Please if there is any moderator here who is in touch with the development team, tell them that there are a lot of people who have this laptop, which I guess it shouldn't be considered an obsolete one, and would like to have updated drivers.

Users follow-up after selling a device should be considered a priority by every intelligent manufacturer.

It supports it, yes. I have the same mobo, and I've installed the updated VGA drivers. Thank you a very very very lot for the tip.

1903 ready after install.

@1laptopuser Ensure to have about 4 hours free for the 1903 installation.

I've just done it. Everything seems ok.

YAY!

it stands nothing about a specific motherboard version in the textfile, so maybe the update supports all motherboard?

The Intel specifications list all the supported processors, which - I guess - include yours.

The textfile posted by butthurt86 above is included in the installation files of the drivers, and it has been surely added by Acer, since it lists the supported Acer motherboards.
