每个 Web 浏览器都提供了不同的检查更新的方法,其中大多数都相当容易,并且可以在浏览器本身中找到。Firefox允许您通过(Firefox)帮助(Help)菜单轻松检查更新。
Opera还提供了一种使用(Opera)帮助(Help)菜单检查更新的简单方法。
即使是谷歌浏览器(Google Chrome)也可以通过自动下载和安装更新来轻松实现。但是,如果您使用的是 Apple 的Safari浏览器,您如何检查更新?在浏览器中找不到Safari的更新机制作为选项。
当您安装 Safari 时,Apple Software Update也已安装,它提供了一种更新Safari的简单方法。
如果您尚未安装Safari,可以从此处下载:

Update Apple’s Safari Browser in Windows
Every web browser provides a different wаy of checking for updates, most of them fairly easy and found within the browser itself. Fіrefox allows you to easily check for updates through the Help menu.
Opera also provides an easy method of checking for updates using their Help menu.
Even Google Chrome makes it easy by automatically downloading and installing updates. However, if you are using Apple’s Safari browser, how do you check for updates? The update mechanism for Safari is not found as an option in the browser.
When you installed Safari, Apple Software Update was also installed, and it provides an easy way to update Safari.
If you don’t have Safari already installed, you can download it from here:
http://appldnld.apple.com/Safari5/041-5487.20120509.INU8B/SafariSetup.exe
It’s worth noting that the last version Apple released for Windows was in 2012, so it’s really old!
There is no shortcut created for the Apple Software Update program, so navigate to the following directory containing the .exe file in Windows Explorer:
C:\Program Files\Apple Software Update
Double-click on the SoftwareUpdate.exe file.
Apple Software Update starts checking for new software available.
Once the check for new software is finished, the Apple Software Update dialog box displays. Updates to any Apple software you have installed is listed in the first list box. The program also informs you of any new software available that you don’t have installed in the second list box.
