When a computer leaves its factory, it will have the latest software AS OF THAT DATE. It still has to travel to the destination, and after that, it may sit in a local warehouse for months before being sold. During that time, Microsoft may make updates to the operating system, but there is no way for them to be applied until the unit is bought, turned on, and connected to the internet.

To try to resolve this, first, open the Settings app > Select the Windows update tab > Select the Check for updates button. If after the available updates are applied and the system restarts, yet the issue persists, in-depth troubleshooting will be necessary to fix the problem. We recommend contacting Lenovo Support for further assistance. Let us know if you need anything else!

It will warn you during this process that the computer may reboot several times. Allow it to do so until there are no more updates available. You can easily double check this by typing "update" into the Search field on the Taskbar and choosing "Check for updates." From that moment on, the computer will update following Microsoft's schedule. You can prevent this by monitoring the update request, but at some point you will either forget or the system will update regardless of your desire.
