Your device follows a simple schedule:

• Updates are released by Microsoft usually the second Tuesday
• Your device will begin to receive theses updates 9 days later
• Windows will then automatically download and install the update in the background

You don’t need to manually install updates, this happens automatically.

Windows uses its default smart update behaviour, which means:

• It tries to install updates at a convenient time
• It avoids interrupting you during active use where possible
• It uses Intelligent Active Hours to reduce disruption
• You’ll receive standard Windows notifications about updates and restarts

In simple terms: Windows works quietly in the background and tries not to get in your way.

You will see normal Windows update notifications when:

• An update is ready to install
• A restart is required

Some updates require a restart to complete.

What to expect:

• Windows will automatically restart your device if needed
• It will try to do this outside of your active working hours
• You may be prompted to restart sooner if convenient

To ensure devices stay secure, there are a few important rules:

• Once the update is installed, a restart maybe required as soon as possible
• If required, you have a 2-day grace period to restart your device
• During this time, you’ll receive reminders

If you don’t restart:

• Your device will automatically restart after the grace period

This ensures updates are fully applied and your device stays protected

Tip: It’s best to restart your device when prompted to avoid unexpected restarts later.

• You can’t pause or stop updates

Updates are required to keep your device secure.

• Save your work regularly
• Restart your device when prompted or as soon as possible.
• Leave your device on occasionally so updates can complete during none working hours.
