Surface Laptop 3 March 2023 firmware update

It is worth noting that the March 2023 firmware is rolling out in phases, which means that not everyone will get it on the same day. It might take a week or so to become available for everyone. It is also important to note that the latest firmware is rolling out to devices running Windows 10 May 2020 Update, Version 20H1, or greater.

If you have just received it on your Surface Laptop 3, you should remember a few things listed below.

  • Firmware updates can’t be uninstalled or reverted to an earlier version.
  • When you install the latest update, you’ll also get all the previous updates if your Surface doesn’t have them already. Only updates that apply to Surface will be downloaded and installed.
  • After the updates are installed, restart your device to complete the installation process. To restart your device, select the Start button and then select Power Restart.

A couple of months ago, Microsoft updated the firmware version of the Surface Pro and Pro 7+ with the February version. The Laptop 3 is the last Surface device to receive the March 2023 firmware update. Microsoft will continue to push new firmware updates to all its supported Surface devices in the coming months.
