Hello Cas,

They use different DisplayLink drivers.
Windows doesn't really "update" from 1511 to 1607, it installs 1607 and then copy data over from the old install.
The old driver is removed, on purpose, when the flighting takes place.
Then, I imagine the computer received the new driver from Windows Update transparently.

Should these computers not have access to the Internet, then the process would be to do the OS upgrade, which will remove the old driver architecture, and then, when the new OS build is installed, install the new driver. Please note that the MSI is different for 1607 onwards than for the old Windows.

Kind regards,
Alban
