Waiting for updates to finish with a Teams/Zoom in 5 minutes….

You’ve hit the Not Now / Later / Delay / Go Away button too many times, everyone's been there. The bane of one's life.

💡 use a workaround using your mobile, not ideal if you’re planning
on doing screenshare though!
💡switching on your laptop before you pop in the shower might work. 
With any luck it’s finished the damn updates by the time you’ve brushed 
your teeth.
💡don’t bang the lid shut at 5pm as there may be a little help available in 
Windows 11 Pro – often allows change Active Work Hours, so you can run 
security updates outside those hours

Considering Cyber Certification for you business?
Then there's probably alot more to talk about than patches, but one of them is a good start; Auto Patch Management.

It'll push out a wide range of security updates and patches to all your office and remote machines - at set time each week. No human intervention needed.

BUT you’ve gotta work with us on this one, it can’t find switched off Laptops in briefcases, car boots or Boardroom tables. You'll loop round to the start again!


Security Patch Management heaven not hell?
DM Monique Goodwin to chat over how we can help.


*may not have that option if on a Server Domain or Entra ID (Azure AD) as it will be set by a central security policies to keep businesses safe 😁 ✔
