My Windows Logs | System and Application and Service Logs | Dell logs in Event Viewer doesn't go back that far so I can't tell you if an update of the Intel Management Engine Components would have logged an install of something called 'Intel - SoftwareComponent - 20 xx.x.xx.x', but Device Manager confirms my Intel Management Engine Interface was also updated on 2. My Win 10 Pro machine might be a bit different because I don't allow Windows Update to deliver driver updates and have disabled driver updates in the Local Group Policy Editor gpedit.msc (Computer Configuration | Administrative Templates | Windows Components| Windows Update | Do Not Include Drivers With Windows Updates) and only install driver updates posted on the support page that are certified for my Dell Inspiron 5584.Ĭontrol Panel | Programs | Programs and Features shows I currently have Intel Management Engine Components v2016. However, I found a thread Running Windows 10 - What is Intel - SoftwareComponent - 2130.1.16.1? posted by Lisa_Ingram yesterday (1) on the Microsoft Community that you might want to monitor. I checked all the entries at Windows Logs | System with Source = WindowsUpdateClient and EventID = 19 back to 0 and could only see daily updates for my Windows Defender virus definitions and automatic updates for UWP (Microsoft Store) apps.

I can't see a similar entry that was recently logged in the Event Viewer of my Dell Inspiron 5584.
