The term used by Microsoft to describe a collection of bug fixes, security updates, and other improvements made since an OS (operating system) release is called a "Service Pack." Service Packs often include patches for security vulnerabilities, fixes for bugs that affect the system's stability and performance, as well as new features and enhancements that improve the overall functionality of the OS. They are typically tested thoroughly before release to ensure that they do not introduce new issues and are generally recommended for all users to install to keep their systems up to date and secure.
