I don't normally correct people's grammar or word usage but in this case
the error will make your question hard to understand for many.
"Actualize" doesn't mean in English what it means in other languages
with a related word like "aktualisieren". It means "to turn something
potential into a reality". The word you wanted is "update", which you
used as a noun, and which is also a verb.
(Similarly, "eventual" in English doesn't mean the same thing as related
words in Romance and Germanic languages such as "eventuell". It doesn't
mean "possible", but "expected to happen, but at some unknown time in
the future".)
