  • To open System, click Start, click Control Panel, click Performance and Maintenance, and then click System.

  • Scheduled updates are automatically installed at the scheduled time, regardless of who is logged on to the computer. If you choose to be notified before updates can be installed, you must be logged on as an administrator to get notifications and to install updates.

  • Some updates require you to restart your computer before they can take effect. Windows will notify any user who is logged on to the computer before restarting; however, only members of the local Administrators group can stop the computer from restarting. Make sure you save your work before restarting your computer and remind other users to save their work, especially before scheduled installation times.
