I don' have a Windows 10 PC here to check, but if you have an iPhone with AirPort Utility installed on the device or a Mac, you can apply the latest update for the AirPort, which was issued in June 2019.


Your current firmware.....7.7.7......was issued in June 2016, so you are long out of date, security wise.


Windows 10 disabled SMB1 communications.....which the AirPort use.......so it may not be possible to use the Windows 10 machine to apply any future updates. We'll have to wait to hear from one of the PC guys on that.
