Microsoft originally pulled all Huawei computers from the Microsoft Store, but the software giant overturned this decision a couple of weeks later explaining that the existing inventory can go back on sale.
 
“We have been evaluating, and will continue to respond to, the many business, technical and regulatory complexities stemming from the recent addition of Huawei to the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Export Administration Regulations Entity List. As a result, we are resuming the sale of existing inventory of Huawei devices at Microsoft Store,” Microsoft said.
 
Now the software giant expresses its full commitment to Huawei products in a statement for PCWorld, and it emphasizes that updates would continue to be offered.
“We remain committed to providing exceptional customer experiences. Our initial evaluation of the U.S. Department of Commerce’s decision on Huawei has indicated we may continue to offer Microsoft software updates to customers with Huawei devices,” the company said.
 
Intel also confirmed for the cited source that Huawei devices will continue to receive security updates and drivers just like before the company got banned by the US government.
