Should I update it, or is there a next step?

Great, but you're running an old (out-dated) build of Windows 10 - 21H2 x64 (10.0.19044.2130).

So please try to update to Windows 10 22H2 first using the following tool.

Download the

Windows 10 Update Assistant to your desktop.

• Right-click on Windows10Upgrade9252.exe and select the option: Run as administrator.
• Press the Update now button, click after the compatibility check on Next.
• The Update Assistant will now download the latest Feature Update.
• After verifying the download, the Feature Update will be installed.
• When this process is ready, click on the Restart now button to complete the installation.
