Complete Noob, Update OS? - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys/Gals
I have a HTC One M7. I have read I can update Android OS on it but being a complete newbie and having absolutely no experience in doing such a thing, can anyone point me in the right direction as to a guide or tutorial on how to perform this?
Do I need to root the phone? If so I don't know where to start on this either.
Cheers

@Rumble_Fish, You had quoted the wrong member in your response.
It's no big deal and thank you for providing some member guidance to @Bazooka!

Thanks Guys, I have posted in a few other areas but getting no response at all.
I did however find this thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one/general/guide-tutorial-htc-one-m7-stock-to-t3781366
which sounds like what I'm after, so hoping if I follow this from the start it will give me what I want. I'll have to go over it quite a few times before I can understand it but if you can confirm it's correct I'll have a crack at it.

Help me root

LG Optimus T (p509)
Android version 2.2
I'm trying to root my device. After installing "ES File" I am able to access the Z4root.apk
I enable debug mode, and start the Z4 program. I select permanent root. The program is stuck, it never completes rooting my phone and stays on the blue screen showing that it is busy.
What should I do?

Thank you, I'll try that out. So the z4 program didn't work for your phone either?

Instead of being condescending and outright rude, you could be helpful and direct me to the right areas in solving my problem (or completely ignore this thread in the first place). Obviously I am new to this game and it would be nice if you can encourage noobs instead of getting mad at the internet. After all everyone has to start somewhere.
I never did anything to you directly but I apologize for hurting your feelings.

Its fine man. Chill. Z4root works in froyo and is the easiest way to root. If it didn't work then clear the phone data and try again.

With no disrespect you really don't understand xda at all. Xda is has not only basic rules but also guidelines on where to post.
For example question and answers go in q/a and new roms go in development and theme packs go in theme section
The development thread ain't a tech support thread
Development or for developers.
Look if this thread has anything new, or created by you then please let me know
Just post all questions in Q/A section
For rooting I would recommend gingerbreak instead of z4root
Gingerbreak is more reliable

Expect a ban soon too. Every post you send that is not related to development is a flame at a new user. Your behaviour is uncalled for, just because you have some tech knowledge doesnt make you better than anyone else.
The term noob is widely accepted internet lingo for "new user" its not meant to be derogatory in any way

I see your point but this isn't even about tech knowledge
This is about posting eight place . Devs use the development thread to post new roms tweaks or other stuff
And every non development post hides something actually legit and pushes it to the second page
This seems like a question and deserves to be in the Q/A

The GApps package isn't needed and not everyone uses it.
The Package is only for Google Play and depending on which size GApps package determines how much more comes with it. There's apps out there that requires it as well as those that doesn't. I'm not sure exactly how to tell which is which really.
The following thread is the Official GApps thread for you to read and post any further questions you may have.

May I ask what a "Handy" is?
It appears to be a Samsung device since you had referenced using Odin for it and, after a quick Google Search, the only reference to it is all (what appears to me) only in German.

Thank you very much for clarifying this as I've never personally never heard of the term for a device called "Handy"...
