UCheck alerts you to available updates and makes it easier to find them, but you still have to manage the installation yourself. What you don't get in the free version is any form of one-click automated 'install everything for me' feature. Hitting this opens your default browser at the download page, but leaves you to find the relevant file, download and install it. Larger applications - Java, iTunes, Chrome - only have a 'website' button. We then had to work through every step of the installer, as usual. Clicking 'Download' grabbed the installation file, and hitting 'Install' launched it. Some applications - 7-Zip, CCleaner - had 'Download' and 'Install' buttons beside them.

UCheck scanned our system, and listed 5 missing updates in a Details pane, including the installed and latest version numbers. The program only supports around 40 packages, but the list does include some big names: 7-Zip, CCleaner, Chrome, Firefox, Flash, GIMP, iTunes, Java, LibreOffice, Malwarebytes Anti-malware, OpenOffice, Opera, Skype, VLC Media Player and more.

UCheck is a portable tool which helps you install popular applications and missing software updates.
