Configure Automatic Updating: Enabled.
•
Scheduled install day: 0 if Maintenance will happen every day; the specific day if Maintenance
will only occur once per week.
•
Scheduled install time: Set to 30 minutes after the start of the Deep Freeze Maintenance
Period.

Do not display Install Updates and Shut Down option in Shutdown Windows dialog box:
Enabled
•
Do not adjust default option to Install Updates and Shut Down in Shut Down Windows dialog
box: Enabled
