Update won't install through windows updates, But Microsoft Keeps pushing it.  Go to settings > windows updates  Pause windows updates.  Run the troubleshooter and hide the windows update showing Firmware [URL] This will sort your windows updates issue.    Now personally I won't recommend forcing a BIOS update if your machine is out of warranty. Any thing goes wrong and it can brick your Motherboard, so unless you are facing an issue which can be fixed only via BIOS update, please leave  it.    In order to update BIOS you can try this If you have Bit Locker enabled, please disable Bit Locker prior attempting an update   Now coming back to BIOS update.  1. Try Force update : Download BIOS File and rename it BIOS.exe  Open command prompt and navigate to the folder where BIOS.exe is located  Run command bios.exe /forceit    2. Try a BIOS Flash update via USB :  F12 > BIOS flash update    3. Last option prior seeking a Motherboard replacement from Dell : BIOS Recovery  Use second method with latest BIOS file downloaded from support site.
