Modified Windows Computer Update Process

By Andrew Hogan, February 28, 2023

A new version of the utility that automatically provides updates to the College’s Windows computers is being installed.  This application is designed to keep your Dell computer up to date by automatically installing the latest Dell drivers and firmware in the background when updates are released.  During the initial installation process, you may see a prompt indicating the need to reboot your computer.  (The reboot can be delayed by replying ‘No’ to the task bar pop-up)   

This installation is part of our ongoing efforts to ensure that your Windows computer remains secure and up to date with the latest features and enhancements. By keeping your drivers and firmware up to date, you can enjoy a better computing experience with improved system stability and performance.

If you have any questions or concerns about the installation, please contact the IT Service Desk via Chat, by email:  servicedesk@ithaca.edu or via phone: (607) 274-1000. We appreciate your cooperation and understanding as we work to improve the reliability and security of our computing environment.  Thank you.
