What are best practices to patch and update the OS on my University computer?

Important computer updates are released monthly and provide feature enhancements, security patches and more. These best practices will help ensure University computer updates regularly for your most satisfactory experience:

1. If you see a prompt/notification to update, please don't ignore it. Update immediately, at lunchtime or end of the day.
2. Leave your computer on at night to update after hours.
3. Completion times vary, but Windows updates typically take less than five minutes. Macs may take slightly more time to update.
4. Location doesn't matter. You can upgrade whether you are at home or on campus.
