GNOME software center tells me this needs an update but it doesn't do anything when clicking download, how can I update this?

Looks to me like you are trying to update via fwupd. While this should work via GNOME Software, you can also use the the terminal to do this.

The command is fwupdmgr update

@Tywele

Click download and then reboot.

At least read the title?

I’ve had situations like this with my notebook where it would appear to do nothing from the GUI when clicked. It was because I didn’t have power connected, and I think gnome software has since been updated to reflect this.

Assuming you were connected to power, I’m not sure but it may be worth reporting as a bug to gnome-software?
