nameWindows Update

How does this affect me?

Once the updates have been installed you will receive a notification stating that the PC needs to be rebooted:

  • Windows Update Icon

You will also see an icon on the Power / Shutdown menu:

If you do not select "Update and restart" or "Update and shut down", you will receive a reminder every 2 days for 7 days:

  • Image Modified

If you choose to Snooze this reminder, you will receive it again every 2 days (or until you chose to next snooze it) until a week after the updates are installed, after which you will receive a "Persistent Notification" (i.e. one that stays on-screen and without a Snooze button) stating that the PC will reboot in one hour if you do not manually reboot it - after one hour the device will reboot itself.

Note: If your device is off for a long time the updates will install as soon as the device is turned on, and you may receive a message that the device will reboot that day, rather than giving you the 7-day grace period.
