Lenovo updater updates aren't up-to-date

Why does this screenshot look like Windows 7? It’s 2024.
- It is an old screenshot, back from when people awoke to find Windows 8 suddenly installed on their computers.
  
  But that's clearly 7 or below because of the window controls! They're not flat.
- Because it's windows 7
  
  Then the Lenovo updater is the least of your problems.
What's gorey about this? The program is called "System Update" and needs to be updated to be able to receive system software updates.

Yeah, it sounds a bit funny but I've seen that happen with many OEM update utilities. Even Windows Update once told me that itself needed an update, it's a perfectly normal thing.
- Fourteen occurrences of some form of the word "update" on-screen from one program.
  
  "Please wait while System Update searches for new updates for your system" reminds me of the classic Nintendo instruction card on the Donkey Kong arcade game: "Jump button makes Jumpman jump."
- Who checks for updates to the updater 🤔
  
  The universe is updaters all the way down. 🧘‍♂️
Yo dawg..
