System Firmware 0.1.24.0 update
How come Windows update has this update Firmware 0.1.24.0 but Dell does not. But it is also a UEFI update. I was wondering if this Firmware comes in a .exe format. Cuz I know nothing about binary code.
Thanks

I'm faced with the same issue. I maintain the BIOS update process at my workplace and although I've seen a bunch of recent updates for newer models, I didn't see one for the Latitude 5x80 models we have. But now when I look at Windows Updates for optional components, I see 1.24 show up in there.
Adding to the mystery, we have one 5480 that has that new version, so the user must have downloaded/installed it on their own? Which would be strange since we have BIOS passwords that would be required, and Bitlocker enabled which makes things trickier.
I wish Dell would clarify how and why Microsoft is offering a BIOS update that Dell themselves does not.

You did not post the exact model number of your system and is needed for any diagnostic help.
